Funny Stories about charging for stupid items & expired

[silvercrank]

okay yeah this thing is way too dormant and i know that all of you can rant whenever you're triggered to...

so i will make a whole bunch of topics and put my two cents in..hopefully the threads will turn into those wonderful 14 page ones we used to have back in the day
*crosses fingers and wishes*


so here's the first one...

okaymy boss and some coworkers were talking today about how they used to work (at two separate) convienience stores and how when (my boss) visited the one in Jordan (you know by kuwait and all that) there was an old guy who ran this store and he was trying to sell stuff that was expired, and the dude was like no you gotta pay! and he was like "no, its expired!!" but i mean he later explained how thats the way they grew up, all old-school, not wasting anything so he didnt really get the concept of 'expired=sickness'

and then my coworker said how she knew a guy who sold milk and stuff that was out of code, and when you shook it you could hear the curdling yuckiness in there, but the store owner didnt care cuz he knew old people wouldnt look at the stupid ass dates on there and she thought "man, youre gonna kill some old person"

also they my bodss mentioned when he was in california, some dude sold some soda on sale, then a guy got one, BUT took it out of the cooler, and the customer said
'wait this is supposed to be $0.99',
and the store clerk said
'no, the stuff in the cooler is not on sale only the ones next to it'
'but those are warm!'
'i dont care its not on sale'
the douchebag was trying to charge for the cold stuff!


and once my boss got a soda, and he wanted ice and they tried to charge him for the ice...hahahahaha


any funny stories guys?

[draven]

Damn.... It sounds like you work at an interesting job.....

[silvercrank]

oh my god-
i love the people at my job

i absolutely hate my actual rudimentary job.

omfg

i really really hate stupid people. i got a new story.

so me and my ma are looking to buy new replacement windows, cuz ours suck and winter's coming, so we have been calling up places to see if the sell to the public, cuz replacement windows are so easy to install. and so my mom calls this one place and she gets the size the prices the models how many to buy to get a discount and all that other stuff and then she calls back earlier today to just verify the stuff and go and get em and the stupid bitch on the phone was like 'no we dont sell to the public' and its like WHY THE #### DID YOU WASTE HER TIME GOING INTO DETAIL TELLING HER ALL THAT CRAP YESTERDAY???? GAAAHH!!!

anyway we found a different place today and got some windows.

i hate stupid people.

[draven]

I also hate stupid people..... So I agree with you......

[silvercrank]

but why does it seem that everyone is stupid? i have a feeling its because of all that flouride in the water...or all the prozac in it b/c so many americans excrete it... thats so nasty when i heard about that i freaked out.

[Smell the Vapors]

wow...that's horrifying about the prozac excretion. I run into stupid people on a daily basis. especially the dumb broads that try to pass off their half full grocery carts as 10 items or less, because it's the express line. but then having this dumb broad there defeats the entire purpose of the express line. BAH.

[Vertigo]

Do you live in Argentina? In America, we do not put flouride in the water supply, that is something found in South America. Besides, I don't see evidense that flouride in water causes any health problems. As for prozac in the water...it's found in such small, trace ammounts...that you are more likely to get sick off the chlorine than the SSRI's.

I hate stupid people....but I managed to love you.

Talking about stupid people you guys should check out this comedian called Carlos Mencia.... I got his dvd from netflix and its #### hilarious.... The dvd is Carlos Mencia: Not for the Easily Offended...... Check it out.....

[Smell the Vapors]

Yeah Carlos is hilarious. I haven't seen his new show, but i've seen some older stuff. Definitely have to check out this dvd.

[gthesob]

Carlos isn't so great anymore. Check out Eddie Izzard: Dress To Kill.

[Smell the Vapors]

I've seen Dressed to Kill. I even found the time to record it on HBO! Eddie Izzard is hilarious. and if you can get past the transvestite thing (at first I couldn't but then I actually listened to what he was talking about and I was laughing my ass off) it's just a great set. I especially loved the english man's darth vader impression. I may have to go and find that tape now. lol. or taking the french you learn in school books, and attempting to apply them to situations in france. like 'the mouse is under the table, and the monkey is in the tree!" good stuff.

[silvercrank]

that guy looks funny

[draven]

I don't man I think Carlos is the funniest #### around right now..... I haven't checked that tranny out but it really freaks me out his appearance and I still haven't seen him..... I might give it a chance later..... Just not now.....

[Smell the Vapors]

once you look or just listen past the appearance it is pretty funny.

[gthesob]

He's a scary looking transvestite but he's funny as hell. I've watched the DVD so many times.

You guys must have heard of Mitch Hedberg, haven't you?
