» Amazing displays of ignorance

I'll tap that.
More stupidity than ignorance. First post in years so please be nice!

During my teens i worked in a large, orange apron wearing DIY store. I generally spent the majority of my time mulling around the fire section or showing people where compression fittings were. I also sometimes dabbled with the tools.

One Saturday I got a call to go to the returns desk because if items were above a certain value they had to be checked by someone on the department, anyway off i trundled. There was a lovely polite woman returning two tap hammers, which i thought was a bit strange. Anyway i said they were fine, she asked for store credit and asked me to wait to give her a bit of advice on the tools. As we were walking back I asked her why she brought back two seemingly unused hammers, she told me her husband had sent her in to pick a 20oz hammer but she couldn't find one so she him bought two 10oz hammers instead.
