Not so stupid customer of the day...


I don't remember the last time a Friday made me so happy. This week has been ridiculously slow. I'm planning to take it easy tonight, maybe buy a bottle of wine and cook something tasty. Does anyone know what to do with a chicken breast that isn't too complicated?

To make things a little merrier, I just had this conversation. It certainly cheered me up!

Me: Welcome to (company), this is Zinnith speaking.

Customer: Hello? Emma? Who am I speaking to?

Me: You've reached (company), how can I help you?

Customer: Oh, I must have the wrong number. I was calling a little old lady.

Me: (laughing) Heh, well, I'm not that old quite yet.

Customer: Don't worry, I'm sure you'll become a great little old lady!

I've decided to take it as a compliment! Though I suspect I'll probably become a crazy old cat lady instead.
