She should have gone to the garden centre and asked for popcorn tree seeds - would have been more fun for her.

Sadly, Yes I believe you. It is the sad state of affairs we all seem to be living in.

My local co-op employs an fifty-something female assistant who must have been off sick the day her school learnt the six times table, because on more than one occasion I've asked for twelve first class stamps only to be told they'd run out of books of twelve and only had books of six...
"OK, I'll have twelve first class stamps please."
"No, we don't have any books of twelve, only books of six."
"Fine, I'll take twelve stamps then..."
I've just told you, we only have books of six first class stamps..."

I'm in no rush to get home in the morning, I can carry on with this merry-go-round for hours...

Her twin sister works in my local WHSmith. They must have both been off sick on the same day. They must also be telepathic as exactly the same happened to me. It ended up with her loosing it a bit and saying "I keep on telling you we aint go no stamps" so I said OK, I will have 12 of the stamps you have got.

I think I will ask her for a spirit level bubble next time I go there, or maybe I will try the off-licence.

I once got shown to the tins of Jolly Green Giant sweetcorn when asking for popping corn/kernels.

My favourite wind up story was a mate (decades ago) was sent by the [female] office manager to fetch some fallopian tubes because they had run out. He spent the ENTIRE day running around the centre of Glasgow looking for them and every department store gave him the runaround as well.

He was properly embarrassed when his Mum let him in on the joke

Our store boy was sent out once to get a stamp for a French Letter. He came back with a packet of safety pins but I don't know how or why someone conned him into getting them as he was too embarassed to tell us.
