This isn't about customers, but it is one drink fuelled burp.
I finished at 10pm on Sat and was opening the store for staff Sunday morning. So I went out for a couple of bevvies before going home. Into bed around midnight thinking "7 hours kip will be plenty."
I'm settled in having a nice little dream when my phone goes. I have a look and it's a girlfriend of mine R.
I look at the time and think something serious must have happened, so I answer.
B: "Hey, everything OK?"
R: (drunk as a lord)"Oh, everything great, I'm just calling to tell you I got your present today*. Have you decided what we're doing for your birthday yet?"
B:"My birthday? You know it's still three weeks away?"
R:"Yeah."
B:"And you know I told you I have to be in for 8:00?"
R:"Yes."
B:"And you know it's 3AM right now?!!!?!"
R
ial tone...
*She sounded so excited about my present, I'm kinda worried. She's started up her own business a few years ago making body jewellery. Last year we were in a cafe for a birthday breakfast and sh slid a small box across the table.
I opened it and inside was a braided gold ring. It looked lovely but...
B:"It's gorgeous thank you, but that'll never fit on my finger."
R:...

B:..."Ah hell no!"
