Default stupid questions

working with joe public has its moments ... generally more frustrating than joyful.... but questions like these just make my day...

"i'm returning some garments to yourselves.... I just need to know do i have to put an address on the parcel?"


I've had a few corkers in my time here, but that one just takes the cake!!!

The best one I've been asked was when I was the manager of a chippy and a woman came in and asked if our chips were real chips? To which I replied "no they're imaginary" she then clarified her question to ask if they were made from real potatoes?

When I was younger I used to fit sunroofs into cars. We had this guy call us up and ask if we could do one on his car at his house, so off I went in my van.

On arriving I marked out where I was going to cut the hole and was about to drill a pilot hole to get the shears in when the bloke rushed up and asked what I was doing. I told him I drill a hole to start with, then open the hole out with tinsnips to make it big enough for the foot of the shears to go in so I can cut a panel out of the roof to install the sunroof in. He said "No way! You're not cutting a dirty great hole in my car, that's bloody ridiculous". I asked him how the hell else I was expected to fit what was effectively a glass window in his roof panel.

Maybe, when I can remember how to start it. Do you still have to put that petrol stuff in them to make them go brumm brumm? It's been so long....
