'How many days do we have for a 45 day return?': 20+ Customer questions that were complete nonsense

Customer service workers, you're doing the world a favor every time you politely answer the silliest question you've ever heard. They won't train you for this in most customer-facing roles. You think that customers will more or less know what's going on… but that's not the case. In fact, it seems like many jobs just require the worker to answer the same customer questions over and over and over.

Some customers are special, though. They're so confused that their questions make the workers pause to make sure they've heard the customer correctly. Like, what do you mean you can't use the password provided? You didn't think it would work? So you deleted the email containing the password? And now you're wondering why you can't log in? The question answers itself, but the customer is still utterly clueless.

More than 15,000 people responded to the question on u/Emmaleep's mind: "What is the dumbest question a customer or client has ever asked you at your job?" You can check out some of the funniest answers down below.

After that, read about the people who have at least one coworker they cannot stand, like the bartender who can't handle pressure, yet keeps picking up the busiest weekend shifts to work.
