If you work outside the home, what is THE most......

[WardosWifey]

If you work outside the home, what is the craziest, stupidest, most interesting question you've ever been asked by a customer?

I work at Walmart and a few years ago a customer came up to me in Hardware and asked for elbow grease.  She went on to say that she was power-cleaning the kitchen and her husband told her to put some elbow grease into it so... she gets in the car, comes to Walmart in search of this "elbow grease".  Trying REAL hard to keep a straight face, I explained to her that it's just an expression to put more "oomph" into it, and that it's not a real product.  She was so embarrassed.

I work in a Christian bookstore.  Last week, I had a customer ask me if we had the Hunger Games series.  I've had people ask if we carried ipads, nooks, and kindles.  I've had people ask if we had the Koran.  And I had a gentleman ask me a few weeks ago where our travel section was.  Then there are the people who call us and ask if we carry Bibles.

LMFAO! I would have burst out laughing. I work at a college so we don't get too many dumb questions around here.

I've gotten that too!  I'm 30 but I guess I look much younger.

I work with Alzheimer's patients, inmates, and people at risk and testing for HIV/AIDS. Most of the comments I get are " why would you want to work with people like THAT?" " do you really think you are helping them?" and the infamous " I could never do that"

I've gotten that one before, too.  And the whole "unwed mother" thing when I was pregnant with my first and too swollen to wear my wedding ring.
