I know strips like this are mostly making a joke but in reality if someone called for something like this most people would just tell them to come into the store themselves or find a sales sheet online or something. It may be a customer service-oriented job but we do still have things we need to get done and wasting all of our time on one customer ensures we can’t serve the rest of them. Most people will understand that but you do get the odd customer or two who think customer service is bending to their every whim and need.
What really gets my goat is when you’re standing in a line waiting to make your purchase but the cashier is on the phone with a customer who is in the comfort of their own home asking questions and the cashier has to answer them and make those in line wait. We have our purchases and money ready and this customer at home may or may not come in and make a purchase. Serve those in person first!
