    i had a very angry customer today complaining that he sent a money order for repayment and it was sent about a month ago - what was the delay - i asked him for the details whereby he produces the money order that he wanted repaid - i tried explaining that the section who do repayments need to have the order - (he had only sent a photocopy) in their pocession in order to cancel and reissue - this guy just didnt get that if you wanna cancel something like this you have to hand it across - i thought it was quite funny - like another time a customer was angry that a bill hadnt been paid she bought an order posted on the details when i tried helping her confirming the order had not been paid out and phoning the said company and confirmed letter received but no order - on further discussion the lady took the money order out of her purse - "oh you mean i was meant to send this aswell" god give me patience

    i just think some things people do are hilarious - have ye any strange - silly stories of peoples odities

    My granny farting.

    I was about 10 and she didnt know I was in the room behind the couch.

    It sounded like a thrombone, long and deep.

    I used to work in a hospital switchboard and believe me, that is where the utter bottom feeders of the gene pool phone in. One call that comes to mind is 'I've was cleaning my ears with a cotton bud and then my ear started bleeding, what does that mean?' Also amused me that they thought a switchboard operator had any medical background.

    When I tried to go to adverts.ie there I got this up on my screen;

    "I cannot connect to the PhotoPost Classifieds database. [$php_errormsg]"

    Who is this I?! WTF? ''I cannot connect''; Who are you?

    A Matrix image flashed across my head; ''Hello, Neo''.

    a woman abusing me on the phone because her payment was late.

    i told her it had been paid to her account 6 weeks previously and checked the bank account details with her.

    she told it was the wrong bank account, she it was her account but she had opened up a seperate account for our money.

    i told her i didnt have the new bank details on her file. she informed that she hadnt given us the new account details, as she didnt think we would need them

    i had to explain to her slowly why her money wasnt paid into the correct account. she didnt get it all.

    she then demanded that i transfer the money out of her account into the new account.

    i told her i couldnt do that, that she would have to go to her bank and get them to do it.

    she kept shouting "this is your fault, it is up to you to fix it"

    eventually i told her she would need to go to bank and organise me to have power of attorney over all her account and to email me her bank account, sort code and passwords and then i would be able to move the money between the different accounts

    my job would be great if it wasnt for the people:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    i get that type of customer all day every day without fail they will always be there they cant see past their nose or something - its different wiring completely as soon as they step in the door - though for some thats a permanent fixture....

    Something similar- my friend was in the cinema. There was a crowd of girls only about seven or eight years old, and a crowd of lads around the same age sitting across from them. It was 'High School Musical' so the place was full of kids.

    Given the girliness of the movie, one of the little ones shouted to the lads "Youse must be gay, coming to see this fillum!"

    To my friend's horror, one the little lads turned around and shouted "Shut up, you, and suck my mickey!"

    Wrong, but funny. :pac:

    Did anyone read the article last week in the Star about the woman who came home early to catch her husband...

    ...being intimate...

    ...with the family dog.
    (i know, i know, here comes the "that brings new meaning to the give the dog a bone" comments).

    The man in question lives in Surrey and may be facing beastiality charges.

    ...i wonder does he like pussy? (cats that is).
