# The oldest are the oldest.
Talking of which I just ordered a pizza. When they asked how I'd pay I said 'In pebbles my good man'.

No sense of humour some people.

# The reason they have no sense of humour is because every bastard tries to be funny with them
When I worked in a department store I had to ask "How would you like to pay?" before even ringing the items into the till. The stone age system had different slips for credit cards, storecards and cash.

The number of people who said "I wouldn't like to pay at all, harharhar" was very large.

I hated them all with a passion. It wasn't my fault I had a stupid till and had to ask the stupid question.

# Bugger
I could add tons to that.
My fave being the woman who kept nagging for a discount (in a food shop ffs) so to stop her whinges I gave her a couple of bags of crisps that had just past their expiry date (and I explained that to her but she wasn't bothered).
The next day she phoned to complain that we had "sold her outdated crisps" and demanded a full refund.

# yeah
see, if you in a position of what is assumed to be reasonable authority and do something "nice" you can end up with hassle for it

# gah

# you should spend more time stabbing people
in the throat. Then they'd learn. Word spreads fast in the department store - before you know it hoisery will know all about it and from there, the world!

# Yeah
I think it might be illegal though. And I don't work in a department store or a very customer-intensive role any more, so that's OK :)
