Not so much a question but overheard: Several teenage girls had wandered into the SW section of the LFS with the 1g bowl, gravel and fake pink plant that they were planning on getting a fish for.... and deciding which tang they liked best, hippo or yellow... One girl said to the other "Oh, I hope they're not expensive" and the other girl was like "yeah, no way they will be much, they are just stupid fish!" I had to leave... It was the kind of LFS that just might try to make that sale regardless
i think that there are certain times that ppl need to be taken advantage of to teach a life lesson, and that might just be one of those times. i know that's wrong to think, but you've just painted a pic in my head, and they deserve it i think. for the fish's sake, maybe a good swift slap might be in order.

I was often asked, "Which way is the beach?"

A/Q: are you really asking me that again?

final comment made by me: did you eat paint chips for breakfast?

customer:salt water.
Me:bring in a water sample and I'll test it to see if I can help.

me: are you sure your tank is saltwater?
customer: well duh, of course it is.
Me: do you add salt?
customer: do I look like a complete Idiot? Of course I add salt, one tablespoon per 5 gallons just like the directions say.
(I didnt answer the complete idiot question)

Stupidest question that we all ask..."Can I ask you a question?"...you already asked a question by asking if you can ask a question.

years back i went with a cousin of mine to visit her school (we were the same age). it was a large public high-school in a very affluent area of Pennsylvania. Public school was new to me as i'd grown up going to very tiny religious private schools, so I was very interested to meet new people with different perspectives. The day was going very well, but one particularly...um... dim... student heard what school I went to and said "Wait, isn't that a Jewish school?"
I said "Yes, yes it is."
"And it's in Wynnewood? (Pennsylvania)?"
"Yes."
He looked terribly confused and asked "Wait... but.... I thought all Jews lived in New York?"
::facepalm::

Cashier says to me: "A customer came in and got $200 worth of dry goods and said to just invoice him for it... so I let him go, Is that ok?" "NO! Did you get his name, number, address, etc?" she says: "no?" ::faceslap::

I was going to a clients house for a service. He had an aquarium with a sump on it. I took an immediate interest and heard something grinding away. I said "something's wrong, mind if I take a look?" I looked and his mag18 was running bone dry, and no water was on the floor so it just evaporated. I do my best to get around some cords and equipment as quickly as possible and turn the pump off. He said "is something wrong?" (NO SH*T!) he said "I just like to look at the tank, I got someone maintaining it and they haven't come for two weeks!" Ugh, some fish stores don't even care, and for that matter, some people are too stupid to check when there's bad noises or funny smells.
