Got asked if we carried a particular item.
I politely told the man that no, we did not, but he may be able to find it at stores that specialize in appliances.
He wandered off, then came back about a half hour later to ask me again if we carried the item. ?????
An hour later, he was still wandering around asking folks (not all of which were employees) if we carried the item (swearing he'd seen it before, two years ago, back when we still carried it, somehow it was beyond his comprehension that in two years our stock could change).
Finally, we got it through to him that we did not have the item. That is when he started wandering around asking folks who did carry the item. They gave the same answer I did, he may be able to find it at stores that specialize in appliances or he can order it off the internet.
Not a good enough answer, he wanted us to call stores for him to find the item.
Half an hour later, after we got it through his head that we did not have a phone book and could not look it up on the internet for him, he left in a huff.
Only to come back today and repeat the process.
