WTF?

Guest: Dave, I am calling because it's very cloudy on the beach where I am and I want to know if there is a better spot on the beach where I can get more sun

Me: probably not

Guest: ok......what does that mean?

Me: it means if it's cloudy in one place, it is probably cloudy on the rest of the beach

Guest: thats not the answer I was looking for

Me: well I am not sure what answer you are looking for

Guest: I want to know which spot on the beach has the most sun

Me: ma'am I really dont know

Guest: of course you dont, youre just a phone jockey and you have a very poor attitude I must say. I want to speak to whoever is over you this instant.

This lady is crying on the phone that I ruined her vacation and she is so upset and I was so uncaring and she has never been treated so horrible all her life etc.

I know how she can get more sun when the beach is cloudy but it will require 3 rolls of Duct tape, 3,000 helium balloons and a signed waiver.

And a lawn chair with a cooler filled with beer.

Again . . . totally unreal. Where do these people keep coming from?

Give me a break?

The Hellmouth seems to be spewing them out at a rather alarming rate lately.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

A couple nice, big heat lamps ought to do the trick.

[Camry178]

A huge magnifying glass set right over her.

"God alone knows, ma'am. The weather and clouds are beyond the control of us mere mortals."

I have an idea...drink a fifth of Jack Daniels and sing "You Are My Sunshine" till it becomes funny.

[mikoyan29]

Wow...the awesome powers of Dave...He can control the weather too....

[Silas G. T. Brontë]

She didn't demand a refund or compensation for the sun not coming out, or did she?

She's no darling sunshine for crying over that.

[Anakah]

So because you are not god and cannot control the weather you ruined her vacation... Wow. What a nutcase!! I would have been like: Shaazam! The clouds are gone and the sun has risen! Then hang up. JK What an bitch.

[LillFilly]

OMG. Dave, really, publish that book! I don't know where those people are coming from, but on one hand I'm sorry they come to you and on the other glad they don't come to me!

If I didn't work in a Sun Belt tourist destination, I would not believe that anyone could be so stupid.

However, I DO work in a Sun Belt tourist destination, and I have actually heard people who have this very attitude/thought process. Hell, on an almost daily basis we will get people walking in to The Bar from OUTSIDE, and with a straight face asking us what the weather is like on the roof deck OUTSIDE. You know....where they just were.

I always tell them "it's snowing."

[Red_Dazes]

How DARE you not accommodate the lady and give her the SUNSHINE she wants! Go buy a GIANT leaf blower and get to work on those clouds!


....seriously... people are freaks....I applaud your level head... I'm pretty sure I would have killed someone long ago.
