  • One Stupid, One Funny

    Ok, pizza place, answer phones, whatnot.

    Stupid:

    I answer a phone that on hold:

    me: Thank you for holding, can I help you?
    them: DON'T EVER PUT ME ON HOLD!! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!?!?!?
    me: Did you want to order something?
    them: YEAH!! I WANT A SINGLE PIECE OF CHEESE BREAD!!!
    me: Ok, I'm going to talk to a serious customer now.

    I then just hang up and answer the next line.

    Funny:

    Person orders bread sticks + drinks, and I ask them

    me: What kind of sauce do you want with your bread sticks?
    them: Pizza sauce.
    me: And what do you want to drink?
    them: Cheese sauce, I want cheese sauce.

    Of course he's just saying he wants cheese sauce instead of the aforementioned pizza sauce, but to me it kind of sounded like he wanted cheese sauce to drink.

    Interesting note for those that like numbers:

    My boss showed me the stats for the calls I took. On Friday, where I worked from 11pm - 4am, I sold $1400 worth of pizza. On Saturday, same hours, I sold $1100. I told him I should get 10%.
    To err is human, to blame someone else shows good management skills.
