No Pink Bunnies, But Plenty Of Jackasses
Bookstore Seattle, WA, USA
(During Christmas season, our large bookstore gets awfully busy. The phone rings.)
(Later, I found out that a customer came in looking for a pink bunny book and a ‘fruity sounding’ bookseller. I’m a girl.)Me: “Hello, this is ***, how can I help you?”
Customer: “Hi, I’m looking for a book.”
Me: “Sure, I can help you out. Do you know the title?”
Customer: “Okay, so the book is about a bunny rabbit and I used to read it when I was a kid. It had a pink cover.”
Me: “…do you know the title, maybe?”
Customer: “Look, I’m very busy and I need this book for my kid. It’s about a bunny and the cover is pink. How many pink bunny books can there possibly be? Go look for it!”
Me: “Sir, we have no option in our search system regarding book covers–”
Customer: “Look. Go f***ing find it. I’m very busy!”
Me: “Sure, let me put you on hold for a little bit.” *click*
