Quoth LuckIsOnMySide View PostI actually have something like this from time to time, but it concerns Apple's Itunes cards and the fact that they don't come prepaid with £10, only £15, £25 or £50. No matter how hard we try to explain this to the customer, they never get the hint that £10 prepaid cards do not exist and insist that they will find it in 'Boots across the road.' Yeah, good luck with that...Final Fantasy XIV - Acorna Starfall - Ragnarok (EU Legacy)

Quoth Irving Patrick Freleigh View PostI don't know what it's called, it inflates like a miniature kiddie swimming pool, and you put crushed ice in it and use it to keep drinks and food items cool.

Very handy for keeping food cool in 90+(F) heat. Just inflate and fill with a couple of bags of ice. Kept several dishes cool at the wedding I was at last weekend.

Just do a Google image search for "inflatable cooler" and you'll see dozens of different examples of the item in question. (one of the few searches I've ever done that didn't include at least some porn in the top results )
In this particular case, it was probably a circular, open-top style, possibly with some decoration in the center, such as a palm tree or basketball, or the like.

Quoth LuckIsOnMySide View PostI can't believe it was the president of your company that flipped out at you though, surely he should know better than that .
Sorry for the little diversion there, folks. People like that really piss me off. They all think that with a little money and/or power, they know everything...and that everyone else is an idiot. They never admit that they're wrong, and if proven wrong, fur starts flyingAerodynamics are for people who can't build engines. --Enzo Ferrari

ugh. I guess I should go back and get my training re-done. You know the day long seminar on "customers are always right" and "they know EVVVVERYTHING about EVVVERYTHING"
On second thought - screw it. If sucky customers cant go back and re-do the "how to act like a civilised human while dealing with other people course", then i am not either !!!
