Encounters of the Weird Kind

Answering queries from potential clients is usually a mundane job. Absolute majority of people are polite, pleasant, clear and concise. However, every once in a long while, I get a query or response or encounter that brings a chuckle not just to me, but also to the people that I share the stories with. 

So much so, my brother told me I should chronicle all the weird stories, so that I can look back and believe that there are all types of people out there. 

Not in order of weirdness.

#8 We reserve the right to stop responding to rudeness

- not surprisingly, after answering at least 50,000 queries through the years... the small percentage of rude ones that kept interrupting me as I was answering, NONE of them ever proceeded to place an order. So I am more than glad to be rid of the rude queries.
