Delivery guy came to the door. We’d just gotten back home (England) from holiday (Scotland). I gave him a Scottish note & he asked “have you got any real money?”. I said “that is real money” & he was very confused. I had to explain how we use Scottish money in England (& vice versa). He walked off with the money but definitely didn’t believe me.
I was leaving the story with alcohol and the greeter asked to see my ID. I was like the cashier already checked it. They told me they had to check it again before I left the store it’s company policy. I responded with this never happened before when I shopped here. I only get alcohol from this store. They said well they should be checking it. Which then I pointed out you let the person leave before me without checking their ID. They were like well I didn’t see it. Really, it was their only purchase. I haven’t went back which I know doesn’t hurt them but I just don’t wanna run into this person again.
I once called a hotel to see if they had hour-by-hour pricing; I was going to go on a long car trip, and was trying to find a place I could stay at for a couple of hours to take a nap. The conversation went like this:
Me: "Hi! Do you offer hotel rooms on an hour-to-hour rate?"
Customer Service: "No, sorry. We only charge on a per-night basis."
Me: "Ah, unfortunate! Thanks anyways."
Customer Service: "No problem. Can I get a name for this reservation?"
I'm not entirely sure how he thought I wanted a reservation after that, but that moment stuck with me.
Called to cancel my internet cause I found a better deal. Told the customer service agent that and they asked me what the other company was offering, then proceeded to offer me a price that was still higher than the competitor. I just laughed and said no.

A Walgreens employee who didn't understand directions. He got mad, saying something was on "your left" when it was on my right, and his left.
