Me: "...and what would you like to drink?"
SC: "Do you guys have Coke?" (As if there isn't enough Coca-Cola products on the menu...)
Yes, but apparently not the powdery one you're looking for
I love my job.
hehehe, I love when we go out to eat (at a non-fast-food place) and my brother always orders Coke/Pepsi, so he doesn't look at the drinks on the menu. Whichever one he says, it seems they carry the other and the server will invariably say "Pepsi/Coke okay?" FF places, it's pretty hard to miss what they carry...

Me: "Welcome to Burger King, how may I help you?"
SC: "Do you have cheeseburgers?"
We actually stopped at a BK one night that didn't have cheeseburgers. Their grill had broken and all they had was what could be cooked in the fryers. Can you imagine the suckyness they had to endure from SC's that night?
It was a dark and stormy night at the hotel and this jackass was at the head of a line of about 5 impatient people.
SC: "Are there any places to eat around here?"
Me: (There are literally hundreds.) "... yeah. What are you looking for?"
SC: "Oh, just start naming them off and how i get to them and i'll pick from that."
Me:
Customers Behind Jackass SC:
This was one question that i answered with a phonebook and a smile.
Shall I set the scene for this one?
Okay, Old M and I are standing in the back of the store, talking. TK is hanging out near the registers up front, as the last of his mini-rush customers just paid and left.
Enter the antagonist of our story, Mr. Lost.
Mr. Lost walks all the way through the store, bypassing the lounging TK, ignoring the scads and scads of movies on racks, to come to me, and ask: "Do you sell furniture?"
RJ: "You've just walked through the entirety of the store, did you see any sectionals? An ottoman? Perhaps you noticed the La-Z-Boy hiding in the corner?"
I've served the public in different capacities for nearly four decades. In that time I've listened to my share of stupid questions and prolly asked a few myself.
Most of the time I am entertained by stupid questions..and other times I feel sad for a person who would ask a question like this:
A few years ago I had a gig playing solo violin at a wedding. I played for half an hour before the service started, I played several pieces during the service, and I played for about 15 minutes after the service as people were filing out. In short, I played a lot.
As I was leaving, somebody came up to me and asked, "Y'all play the violin?"
Not sucky, exactly. Just...odd.
I walk around in the summertime saying HOW ABOUT THIS HEAT?
I'm an asshole - holey holey hole.......

"Is it safe to take these Halls cough drops with this Vick's Nyquil syrup?"
-well thank god you checked, we managed to avert a disaster there...
Person handed me a prescription. For EYEGLASSES. "Uhhh....I think you need to take that to a Lenscrafters or something like that."
Of course, they give me stinky poop eye look because I can't fill it. Hello, we dispense DRUGS, not eyeglasses! Do you see an optical shop back here? No? It's because we are chock full o' DRUGS. Hence, the reason that we are a DRUGSTORE.
