This is a question Customers from Hell

The customer is always right. And yet, as 'listentomyopinion' writes, this is utter bollocks.

Tell us of the customers who were wrong, wrong, wrong but you still had to smile at (if only to take their money.)

Dumb things customers say. Part three
"Your TV advert is factually inaccurate."
How much say do you think that I, stood in the store, have to say about the tv advert?

At Vision Express we had a customer come in to complain that the tv ad that said something along the lines of 'the human eye can see a candle 5 miles away', or some other shit, was wrong.
Although the light of the candle could be seen the curvature of the earth would get in the way. The candle would need to be on a stick.

I don't care, why come all the way to come into the store to tell me that?

Sounds like something I would do.
I wrote to TFL saying that the wording of their signs in the buses was gramatically a nonsense.

Because, due to the curvature of the Earth,
you wouldn't be able to see them being smug if they stayed in their house and told you.

"why come all the way to come into the store to tell me that?"

The candle
could be on the ground if you were standing up. Or if it were a tall candle.

And nowhere does it mention anything about the candle being on the earth's surface anyway. It could be 5 miles up in the sky.

Bloody idiots. You should blind them all.

I'm getting this at the mo in my job
Your advert says it's fibre optic right upto our door; the end of this cable is clearly copper.
Um, yeah, we've been using that for years actually. Umm...anything I can actually help you with?
No, just that.
