Today an elder gentleman (when I say elderly I mean a super old fart) comes in and asks me something. I can't hear a god damn fucking thing he says so I have to ask him multiple times to repeat himself.
Turns out he needs directions to Terwillager bridge (and since there is no bridge I'm assuming he meant Blvd.) There's a line of customers but being the outstanding citizen I AM I go to google and googlemap his destination. Which turns out is actually the OHSU hospital.. and he doesn't even know the actual address..
(I just want to get one thing perfectly clear, I work in a VIDEO STORE)
So I type in OHSU hospital, about 20 different addresses pop up.. I just choose the first one..
I print out the directions, then I also print out a map of the streets (trying to make this quest as easy as possible for this geezer.)
He mumbles a thanks and then leaves.
YOU'RE WELCOME!!!
I hope I sent him to the right place.. and if I didn't.. well.. it's not my fucking job to print out maps for customers anyway, let alone NONcustomers.
A good deed never goes unpunished
Geriatrics these days

Why is it that everyone who is lost pops their head in that fucking store to ask for directions?! This is always how my conversations would go:
ReplyDeleteThem: "Where is such and such?"
Me: "Um...Sorry, I am not sure"
Them: (scoff) "How can you NOT know where it is?"
Me: "Well...you don't. Neither do I."
Them: "But you work right here"
Me: "Exactly, I can help you find a video".
