So I work at Ace Hardware and we get a lot of customers that ask for things it's pretty obvious we don't carry. We also have a lot of the "but yesterday..."or "last time..." customers. Here's one of the interactions.
SC=Sucky Customer (SC1=girl SC2=boy) J=Me
SC1 and 2: *In the plumbing isle*
J: Can I help you find anything?
SC1: We're looking for elastic for sewing.
J: I'm sorry, but we don't carry elastic for sewing.
SC2: But it was here yesterday, right next to the birdseed.
J: *thinking, once again that this was the plumbing isle* I'm sorry, but we haven't had elastic here. You could try the sewing store...
SC1: You're sure?
J: Yes.
Only after they left did I realize that these were friends of mine from high school. Sad, angry day.
