"I'm under the loading dock. How much is that?" The customer of the day

[jmowreader]

Today's candidate for retail immortality called the store yesterday looking for the price of his item. That's not unusual.

He used his cell phone, and to his credit he pulled into a parking lot and shut off his engine before he dialed the store.

The parking lot was mine.

Yes, you read correctly: someone seeking the price on an item got in his car and drove it all the way to The Home Depot before calling The Home Depot to get the price of an item.

leaning in closer to their radios trying to get a good reception, as if proximity to the radio box makes a damn bit of difference.
