This one's a twofer.
Yesterday I fielded a call from a "lady" who chewed my ear off for five minutes about frozen kale. You could practically feel the attitude ten feet away from the phone. She had ordered a bag, at the time I shopped the order we had no kale of any kind. The closest thing I could sub was chopped collards, which I did. Apparently I was supposed to know that she was going to use the kale for smoothies, and was treated to a fairly offensive, dumbed-down lecture about how kale and collard are different (you can indeed use collards in a smoothie, says my mom). I explain that she can select No Substitution for individual items if she does not want anything else. Cue "You don't need to know my dietary habits!" (newsflash; if you have a loyalty card, the company has a pretty good idea).
She demanded that I get her a bag of kale and hold it for her (I'm comin in today!")...fast forward to today and it's still in my freezer. M knew about this and told me nobody showed up yelling about kale.
The first order this morning came in from a regular who is a certified pain in everyone's ass. The order included two whole spaghetti squashes. So I shop the order, wait until he decides to show up and get a strip torn off me about our lack of a particular flavored fitness water. Nothing I can do about that, that's a vendor item. (if you want it so bad, set up a recurring delivery from AMZ and see what you get from them).
About an hour later (as I'm running my tail off shopping the orders that I started late because of this tool), he calls. Says "You gave me the wrong item! I got home and you gave me two whole spaghetti squashes! I wanted prepacked spaghetti squash!" That's not a thing, spaghetti squash falls apart in shreds when cut into. We have the butternut squash noodles...no, he wants spaghetti squash noodles. I check with the produce guy just so I can say I did...nope, he doesn't even think anyone makes fresh spaghetti squash noodles. It can't be done.
By the time I can get back to the phone, he's hung up. OK, whatevs. I don't have time to debate squash with you anyway. M tells me that we do have spaghetti squash noodles...but they're sold frozen. The order clearly said "Spaghetti Squash, 1 ea" and the item was located in Produce. A search for "spaghetti squash" on the site/app only shows two items; the frozen stuff which comes in an obvious bag, and the whole squashes. Both have pictures, and the descriptions are markedly different. I'm still trying to figure out what he thought he had ordered...
