An old woman asked me in work ....
 

"is it a vibrator one"

I actually LOLed

She was buying a wii remote and game. We know what shes up to with that :joker:

What funny moments have you had with customers?

I don't work anywhere, but I've been asked about lightbulbs by an old woman in Homebase when I was there as a CUSTOMER. she just kept asking me even though I said I didn't work there

ROFL Tom.

I can't think of manyfunny things like that really.

I get asked if i work at asda alot perhaps it's because i go everyday...

How old are we talking tom?

about 70 or 80

I get asked "have you lived in this village all your life"

i reply wittily, "not yet"

then i worry about dying and despise the person evermore..

:shocked: she shouldn't even be out in the cold let alone asking if things vibrate.

I had a customer who was missing a hand. He was struggling packing his things. I asked him "Do you need a hand?" He deathstared me.

FML.

:laugh3:

When I was a kid my favourite relative was Uncle Caveman. After school we'd all go play in his cave, and every once in a while he would eat one of us. It wasn't until later that I found out that Uncle Caveman was a bear.

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to DisneyLand, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said, "DisneyLand burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real DisneyLand, but it was getting pretty late..

LeatherTrumpet, with all due respect, wtf are you talking about?

I bet when the Neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would always end up saying, "Don't forget the thick, heavy brows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky brows too, and they'd get mad and eat the snowman.

Interesting thread.....

I work on the fruit and veg in Tesco and we have some weird stuff that I've never seen or heard of before and couple of months ago, a woman came up to me with a Dudhi and asked "what is this? what do I do with it?" - so I knew it was for salads and currys, so I said "well you can grate it into salad and curry's or just chop it up like a cucumber and have it in them like that..." her reply was "oh, I'm sure I could come up with something more fun to do with it ;) ;)"

.....this is a Dudhi. :joker:

LOL. I work at a cafe/coffee shop and I was on the till one Saturday and an old woman.. about 80 - 85 years old asked if she could have a large strong Gin to go down with her Toasted Teacakes. It was hilarious.
And on Friday we had this huge woman in and she sat there for about an hour and a half and ate 2 Cheese Panini's, 2 Scones and then pulled out a bag before eating 24 Wispa bars. It was hilarious. She left all of the wrappers on the plate and walked out with chocolate all down her.
Customers are so crazy.

My bf was going shopping so I asked him to get me some mascara cos I was running out. He came back with... I swear... vibrating mascara...!

In general, you should show the elderly more respect. They know a mountain more than you do, they have lived your tired life and made your mistakes. You should have kissed her feet.

sott

Hahahaha, some of these stories you guys have had are herlarious :joker:
Poor old ladies! Dont know how funny they actually are!

Well I remember being at church once and this old lad used the mass paper as a hanky in front of me, blowing away with it on his nose. I got a fit of the giggles...felt like I was back at school.

As for work, well it's the young ones who make me laugh more. There's one idiot who used to come into the nightclub and no matter who served him he'd always say "same again", thinking that we knew exactly what his round of drinks was and the place heaving. He was a right spanner, poor fella.

ROFL:dance: i dont even understand any of it

Oh yes, and I had a Father Jack experience but without the humour one night in the video shop, with some old fella coming up to me and saying, "You're a young lad, you know all about this. Is there any nudie videos here?" Yes, he said nudie, that's not a typo, unless of course I didn't spell it properly. Anyway, a bit of chill ran up and down my fecking body. Then I brought him home and rode him.

lmao

:laugh:
