California Roll

I work in a retail location that pretty much dies after dark, so when my phone rings I tend to get pretty excited. Well my phone rang, and I went through my whole "Thank you for calling _____, a _____ authorized retailer. How may I help you" and here is what transpired below. Me = Me, and C = Caller

C: I would like to place an order
Me: I am sorry, but we have to have you in the store to select a phone and activate service
C: Well its a small order, it will be quick
Me: Unfortunately I have to verify ID to run a credit check.
C: I just want a California roll!
Me: WHAT?
C: Is this so and so's restaurant?
Me: No, we are a ______ Wireless store
C: Well what is the number for the restaurant?

WTF is up with these people? Did she no...

Yes! I want sushi too now. This is all your fault (somebody, I don't even care who) mmmm

Tempura rolls...

Smoked Salmon...

Giant Clam...

Crap now I need to clean my keyboard, I'm drooling.

And all I have for today is some bad breakroom coffee.

I don't know why they can't get decent coffee for the breakrooms but it seems to be like a rule that the coffee in the breakroom has to be bitter nasty stuff even fresh. I need to keep my French Press and a bag of my own blend in my locker.

A French Press is a method of making coffee, you get the grinds done really coarse and put them in the bottom. They have a little mesh plunger-thing and you put boiling (well just off boiling) water in the press and let it sit a few minutes then MASH the plunger down. It traps the grinds and you pour off the coffee. It tends to be less bitter though you get some silt on the bottom (Nobody seems to mind, the coffee is so much better.)

By my own blend I mean I will buy a roast I like at like Starbucks or Doma (a local roaster) and keep in my locker to use with the Press so I don't have to drink icky breakroom coffee.

You should have taken his order, told him it was free, and let the restaurant deal with him! 🤣
