O RLY?

[Lace Neil Singer]

The magical "O RLY?" moment. XD Everyone's had one of these at work, when a customer says something that's just so overwhelmingly stupid, you have to work hard not to say it.

Had one yesterday; it was as cold as a witch's tit, with the temperature dropping to minus six. So many people I lost count, felt they had to inform me that the water (at the water and air machine) didn't work. It had frozen. This should be blindingly obvious, surely? Obviously not, cuz even when I put up a hurriedly written sign, people still kept coming to tell me and my collegue that the water didn't work.

We kept on getting calls at work
The roads are icy
The roads are icy
The roads are icy

No SH1T! You think we live in a windowless, sealed box? Anyhow we don't grit the roads anyhow, phone the council instead!

One customer after another.

The parking lot is icy
HEY-you better tell a manager, that parking lot is dangerous
I nearly slipped in your parking lot! Thought you ougtta know!
BLAHB LAH BLAH BLAHB ALH
I can't get anything DONE if you continue to tell me every 3 seconds, once I already told one of the cart people, who was in the process of fixing it.

Jesus.

We had that, too. Despite the fact that it's the effing COUNCIL'S car park, and that they've already thrown down a ton of grit, there were still people whinging to us about it. -.-

Ah, the NSS moment (No s**t Sherlock).

"The blade snapped off this lawnmower and now it won't cut the grass" is I think my favourite from the LBoD.
