'Ma'am, I told you so': 20+ Workers whose customers couldn't understand anything

You just can't help a customer who doesn't know what they want. I bet you think that sounds ridiculous. "Of course the customer knows what they want," you say. "Why would they come in the store if they weren't sure what they wanted to purchase?" Au contraire! Just because a person wanders into a store, it doesn't mean they won't have 100 very dim questions to ask. And we aren't talking about ordinary queries like "Where is the paint aisle?" or "Do you sell overalls here?" We're talking about people who call to order a pizza, then refuse to give out their address for delivery. Or perhaps the person who wanted to buy some food for her horse… at a perfume shop. No matter what the dumbest question is you think a customer could ask, the good folks of the retail world will be able to one-up you, as you can read all about below. 

Up next, read about the grocery manager who called a cashier "replaceable," and then acted surprised when that dude quit on the spot: "He was shocked and couldn't understand why."
