People r Stupid

I work for an internet retailer. Our international shipping goes through a third party company based in Florida. As such, they are currently NOT in their offices, being in the path of the CLASS 5 hurricane.

Tonight, co-worker B gets a call from a lady. She ordered something in August via the int'l site, and it hasn't arrived. B apologizes, says we can't currently do anything but that the projected date is Oct 7th for the other company to be back in office.

Lady is having NONE of it. OMG. She ordered it, and it should be there, and it's for her birthday, and WHY isn't the other company able to help!

B transfers her to S, the superviser. S explains (again), and offers to credit the woman, since we have no other way to help.

Woman refuses.

Woman then says, "I'm in Canada, what's a hurricane?"

Now. It's possible she was trying to say "What's a hurricane got to do with Canadian shipping?" But she didn't.

She then asks if S can take the item from the warehouse, and go to UPS and ship it herself!

All I gotta say is it's a good thing I didn't get her. I would've laughed in her face.
