I have a lot of them. Quite frequently as a matter of fact. Most of the time these conversations occur at work. I'm a leasing agent and an apartment complex for those of you who don't know. This conversation I had yesterday is an example.
Me: Hi! What can I do for you today?
Lady: I'm looking for a one bedroom apartment.
Me: Ok, when were you looking to move?
Lady: Tomorrow.
Me: Oh, well we won't have a one bedroom until October.
Lady: Well, I can wait until October. Can I see one.
Me: No, they are all occupied right now so I don't have any to show but I can show you a two bedroom that is similar.
(The lady and I then go to said two bedroom apartment)
Me (while showing the apartment): Now, the kitchen's in the one bedroom will have all the appliances just like the two bedroom does but it will be a little smaller. It will cut off about right here (at this point I show the lady where it will cut off) so you will lose a little bit of counter and cabinet space but you do still get all of the appliances including the built in microwave.
Lady (about ten seconds later): Now is the kitchen in the one bedroom smaller than this one.
Me: Ugh....yeah.
Lady: Oh, well about how much smaller is it?
Me: It will cut off about right here. (I show her where...again).
Lady: Well will there still be room for all of the appliances?
Me: Yep.
Lady: Including the microwave?
Me: Yes...
Idiot....
Oh how I miss the stupidity of random customers since my days of working in a people oriented industry... all you can do is love!
