Stupid people... and ya know.. university students (no offense to anyone) have to be some of the dumbest people I have ever met. Anyone that knows me is gonna know my little rant about selling long distance phone cards in the store... the conversations go like this;

Me: May I help you

Customer: I want an international phone card

Me: what kind would you like

Customer: An international one

Me: There are several types here, which one would you like

Customer: One to call ********

Me: There are several that call to ********

Customer: The yellow one (take note, they don't know how to call it by name, they ask by colour)

Me: For how much? We have 5, 10, and 20 dollar cards

Customer: *holds out a $10 bill, but doesn't speak*

Me: *hands them a $10 card*

Customer: (annoyed) no... I want two $5 cards (or sometimes it can be) no... I want one $5 card

Me: *mumbling to myself* well speak up next time brainiac instead of just shoving cash in my face.
