Why I find my job hilarious (and other musings)*

A guy comes in asking if I have any fire caulk. Say that aloud.

I was also asked how much caulk comes in a box. Well, obviously it depends on the type and size of the caulk...and the dimensions of the box.

Today I announced that my hands were covered in nut grease. Woops.

Someone called asking if I had stainless nuts. No, but I bet the bed sheets would thank me if I did.

A guy called and told me he was looking for a certain screw. Aren't we all? A stainless screw would be nice, no?

I was once asked if I specially cut rod. Ouch, no.

Imagine my amusement when a guy came in telling me he wanted to put a strap on wood to wood and asked what size strap I would recommend. Let's just say I'm not so familiar with that type of thing, but they say bigger is better!


* Yep, my mind never strays far from the gutter!

That's why this place is so boring now...I don't have you around to spend half the day saying things about dirty boxes.

Sad.

Beth, once Carole gets comfortable she can put Biatch to shame.

Just ask her about the fuzzy navel joke.

Hilarious. Where I work, we carry a brand, T-Bags. Try keeping a straight face when mentioning that
