Been out for a while, but thought I'd add a few that I've had in my recent weeks.
1.)Uh...
Some lady comes in with six kids aged 1 to 12. The oldest girl, 12, is dressed in a short skirt and a shirt that reads quote "Crack Whore".
2.) Your math suxxors.
I was checking out at a local gas station, only to find out that I had been shorted. I'd given the girl a 20 and had gotten change for a ten. It took me an hour, and a phone call to the manager (who is a friend) to convince the cashier that yes, the proper change for a twenty is a ten, a five, and five ones. Not a ten and five ones.
3.) Subway sighting.
While getting mum and I some subs, I waited in line behind this lady. After going on at length about how this and that was evil, the dangers of high fructose corn syrup, evils of non organic foods and how she was doing everything to keep HER body pure; I watched her go outside and light up a cigarette. So much for keeping your body pure...
4.) There is no sighting four.
5.) your payment is late!
Been getting a rather amusing phone call recently. It all started about two weeks ago when Comcast started calling me claiming that I'd failed to pay my broadband bill. At first they stated that if I didn't pay the bill, they'd cut off the internet. Since we don't even HAVE comcast in our area, I didn't worry about it. Besides, my internet is through a local company.
Couple days pass, and I get one last call. This time it's a person I talk to. I try to explain the situation, and everything seems to go fine until I'm asked "So what are you going to do about the bill?" The "agent" doesn't take kindly to the idea that 1.) Comcast isn't available in this area, and 2.) I've never had it in the first place. Thus, no bill. As she hangs up she says "Your credit is screwed! I'm sending this to collections."
So, the collections company calls finally. Things turn really funny. Talking with the collections officer, I explain the problem, and he listens to the story, my problem, and everything. His response is (and I quote) "WHAT THE F***? You gotta be kidding me..." After a moment of laughter, he voids the debt, and gives me a handy number. The FCC. He suggests that I contact them.
I call the FCC and report the problem.
Yesterday I got a four page letter of apology from the head of the billing department.
The FCC investigation is still ongoing.
Somebody is (if not already) gonna get their arse fired.
