Things you're sick of hearing at work.

About 70% of my day is spent answering questions that have been asked over and over again in my total three years at KFC. It makes me wonder if there will ever be a day when I'm not asked at least three of the following questions on any one shift.
Which questions are you tired of hearing at work, which ones really get on your tits?

"Do you do hamburgers?"
-No.
"Can I have a strawberry milkshake"
-We don't do milkshakes.
"I'll have a large Irn-bru with that"
-I'm afraid we don't sell Irn-bru
"Do you do mashed potato?"
-Only in american stores.
"I'll have curry sauce with my fries"
-We don't stock curry sauce.
"Do you do fish and chips?"
-At kentucky fried CHICKEN? No.
"Do you do home delivery? I'm blind." (question asked by a guy standing at the drive thru window, who had dodged two cars on their way to the carpark.)
-No
"Do you sell fags?
-No

Do those pumps work (when there is a bag covering the pump, to show it is out of order)
There is no penny at the pump (well, i don't invent pennies, and my till is showing that your fuel is £20.01, ya fud! So who's wrong eh? )

Oh aye, the "i don't know which one i'm at, it's ten pounds."

"There are 5 pumps with ten pounds, could you be more specific?"

"that one over there"

WOULD YOU JUST FUCKING LOOK UP IN FUTURE AND SEE WHAT NUMBER YOU ARE!!

Re: Things you're sick of hearing at work.

I hate people that phone up and blurt out the name of the person they want to speak to and nothing else, how rude is that? If they want to speak to someone they should at least be civil and ask politely....geez...it just happened (again) 2 secs ago....grrr boils my blood!

Re: Things you're sick of hearing at work.

"Do you have *insert abbreviated, yet absurdly long, government form title* received in your mail intake for a *insert random pensioner surname*??"

Not a stupid question by any means, but it gets damn annoying when you've been asked the same type of question about 20 times a day.

Goddamn.

Re: Things you're sick of hearing at work.

"I want a McFlurry"

"I want a Happy Meal"
-We sell Kids Meals
"what's the difference?"
-Happy Meal is a trademark of McDonald's Corporation and its affiliates.

I got told off for saying that once.
