More Than He Bargained For
Flea Market | Middletown, NY, USA

(My father is manning tables at the local flea market. A man comes up to the table and picks out an item that’s priced at $8.)

Customer: “Will you take $6 for this?”

Dad: “Sure.”

(The man finds another item, this one priced at $5.)

Customer: “Will you take $4?”

Dad: “Sure.”

(After a while, the man finds another item, this time priced at $6.)

Customer: “$5?”

Dad: “Sure.”

(Finally, the man gathers all of his items together and winds up for the ultimate bargaining ploy.)

Customer: “How about $20 for all three?”

Dad: “Sure.”

(Dad was always an agreeable sort.)


my comment: for the math challenged, like me,
the original price for all 3 was $18, the prices
the guy offered was $15

From Zero To Karma In 1 Second
Driving Instructor | Victoria, Australia

(I’m a driving instructor taking a student for his first drive ever. It’s a quiet suburb street, away from major traffic.)

Me: “Okay, just pull out slowly and watch for parked cars…”

(As my student is doing this, a frustrated driver that has been following us pulls into the lane next to us, driving the wrong way since it’s a two-lane road.)

Angry driver: *yells out window* “Learn to f**king drive!”

(The angry driver speeds off … and crashes right into a car heading the opposite direction. Later on, after we’ve pulled over and are waiting for the police…)

Me, to student: “Okay, that’s an example of what NOT to do while driving.”

If A Tree Falls In A Forest…
Restaurant | Melbourne, Australia

Me: “Welcome to [restaurant] how can I help you?”

Customer: “Yes, I’d like to book a table for three for tonight.”

Me: “No problem, we have one available, what time would you like to come in?”

Customer: “Around 1 am.”

Me: “Um, sir, we close at 11 pm.”

Customer: “But I want a table at 1 am. You should stay open and wait for us.”

Me: “Are you joking?”

Customer: “No, I am not joking. If you wont give me a table at, 1 am I won’t come and eat at your restaurant!”

Me: “Well, you can come here at 1 am, but no one will be here.”

Customer: “Well, I’m going to come down there at 1 am and knock until you open the door!”

Me: “Okay… see you then, sir…”

Brazen Overtures Like Mints On Pillows
Hotel | Little Rock, AR, USA

(It was my first night on the job. A woman just checked in and complained that there was “man hair” in her bed. I could tell she was tired, so I put her in a new room and even offered to carry her luggage for her, to which she declined. Two hours later, I wrote a short note saying, “I apologize for the hair in your bed. Please enjoy a free breakfast in the morning on me and I hope you enjoy your stay.” She approached the front desk moments later.)

Customer: “Um, excuse me. What is this?”

Me: “Well, I felt bad about the problem with your room so I was just trying to show some extra hospitality. I figured you would get it when you woke up in the morning.”

Customer: “No! That’s not what this is. This is sexual harassment!”

Me: “Excuse me? I was trying to be nice and hospitable because I felt bad about your situation.”

Customer: “Do you have any idea what it’s like to be a female traveler, and to be harassed by employees and other male travelers?”

Co-worker: “Ma’am, this is his first night working here. I assure you that he used his best judgment, and meant nothing sexual by his nice gesture.”

Customer: “I’m sure he’s nice, but you need to tell him how to interact with female customers. Offering to help carry luggage and putting notes under doors is sexual harassment! I will not be staying here ever again!” *leaves*

Me: *to co-worker* “Note to self: Don’t offer to carry luggage for a woman again or offer her a free breakfast coupon.”

Co-worker: “I think she just wanted to think you were sexually harassing her.”

Raising The Next Always Right Generation
Fast Food | Novi, MI, USA

(This is at a soup shop where we offer samples.)

Customer: “Hi. Can I try the **** soup?”

Me: “Sure, but be careful - it’s very hot.”

(She proceeds to sip it without grabbing a spoon which is in her line of sight.)

Customer: “OW! That is really hot!”

(She hands it to her 6-year-old son who proceeds to do the same thing she just did.)

Child: “That burned my tongue!”

Customer: “You should warn people that your soup is hot!”

Me: “Would you buy the soup if it was cold?”

Customer: “Absolutely not.”

Sometimes Being Too Thorough Can Backfire
Military | Maryland, USA

(This took place at our health clinic. The patient was an older female.)

Me: “What type of appointment do you need?”

Patient: “I need a prostate exam.”

Me: “I’m sorry, those appointments are for men only.”

Patient: “That’s discrimination - I want to talk to your supervisor!”

Sergeant: “The specialist is correct, ma’am, these appointments are for men only. You do not have a prostate.”

Patient: “How would YOU know? I’ve never had surgery in my life!”

Me: “Have you ever had a penis and testicles at any point in your life?”

Patient: “What?! How insulting! You’re sick! I’m going to sue you!”

Me: “If you were not born with boy parts, then you were not born with a prostate. Good luck suing the Army.”
