Me: When creating a password, make sure it contains a number.

Customer: Is zero considered a number?

(Me giving directions to a customer on there phone)

Me: Go ahead and press settings on the screen of your phone.

Customer: With what?

Me: ?

Customer: What do I press it with?

Me: Your finger…..

Customer: My daughters friends already got their new phones and she hasn’t! You are subjecting her to being bullied at school!

Customer: I want to use my own picture for a wallpaper.

Me: Okay, I can show you how to make a wallpaper. What image do you want to use?

Customer: I had a specific image and I can’t find it. Put it on there for me.

Me: We need to know where the image is in order to set it as a wallpaper.

Customer: No!!! You find it and put it on there for me!!

Me: I need to know where you save your files. Is it in your pictures folder?

Customer: I want it on there and I want it now! Give me your manager because you obviously don’t know how to work a computer.

Me: -lol don’t we allllllllll-

(Changed product to “this” for privacy)

Customer: How do I work this?

Me: I don’t know. We didn’t make this. You can contact the company who made it. They could better assist you.

Customer: Tell me how to work this.
