Random person: wow what a cool motorcycle, did you make that?
Me: roll eyes
RP: it's like a bicycle with a motor on it, what do you call that?
Me: it's called a moped
RP: Do you need a license to ride that?
Me: yes, in CA you need a motorcycle endorsement. Maybe that's why you don't see these everywhere
RP: my buddy says 49cc= no license
Me: (RTFM) Look on the DMV website
RP: Can you ride it on the freeway?
Me: (I'm lucky if I can get it to 30 mph, are you kidding me?) Actually no, they are classified as motorized bicycles and not allowed on the freeway
RP: Wow so it you, like, run out of gas you can just, like pedal it, right?
Me: these weigh 3 times the standard bicycle and the pedals are there for starting and to assist the motor on steep hills
RP: it ran out of gas and now it won't turn over
Me: that happens when you don't mix oil in the gas
RP: Ohhh
RP who rides a Harley: why don't you get a real motorcycle?
Me: don't need one (I have nothing to compensate for)

I've had quite a few silly questions and weird moments during my customer service career, most of them when I worked for an electrical retailer.
1.Customer: (referring to televisions) What's better, plasma or LSD
Me: Er, plasma and LCD maybe?
2.Customer: I want a refund, this product is faulty.
Me: I'm afraid I can't give you a refund on that product....
Customer: I know my rights! I want to speak to the manager....blah blah blah
Me: If you would let me finish, I'm trying to tell you that I can't give you a refund on that product because you didn't buy it from our store.
3.Customer: This product is not working, I want my money back.
Me: Your product isn't working because you have the batteries the wrong way round in the remote control.
Customer: Oh.
4.Customer: My DVD player is not working.
Me: OK, we'll test it using one of our big display TVs and if it isn't working we'll swap it for you.
Customer: OK.
Me: (connecting DVD player to giant, 50 inch TV) Is there a disc in here?
Customer: Er...
At this point the DVD comes on, and it is working just fine and displaying the menu screen for a hardcore porn film, in the middle of the shop which is full of customers.
Me; Er, well it's working!
Customer: I'm single, I work in a mortuary!
Me: Security! |

Yup. I think he did it on purpose to be quite honest. He picked the only female staff member and he didn't look as surprised and horrified as I would have expected were it a mistake. I think he wanted to see me looking horrified or uncomfortable, but of course I just looked my usual blank, expressionless self  It was a bit bizarre, but there are some odd people out there. |
