Sometimes I wonder if words come out of my mouth at all.

Guy: *tries locked door #1 finding it locked (natch).

Me: *points to the closed sign*

Guy: *ignores me and tries locked door #2, violently banging himself against it*

Me: *once again points to the closed sign*

Guy *ignores me. Bypasses locked door #3 and slips right through the staff door and to my desk*

Me:... Can I help you?

Guy: I'm here to visit! How much?

Me: We don't open until 11am sir.

Guy: *scowls* Yeah, well that's not going to work for me. So how much?

Me: When we open at 11am you can purchase a ticket for $10.

Guy: I said it won't work for me today.

Me: Then you can come back on Thursday at 11am. *smiles*

Guy: At LEAST give me a pamphlet to read. Not like I'm coming back here since you won't let me in!

Me: Place were I work, this is me, how can I help you?

Man on phone: I want to order tickets for an event on Friday.

Me: Since that is an outside event we don't handle the ticket sales for it, but I can transfer you to our events department and they can give you the information.

Man: Sure

Me: *I transfer him*

*he calls back a minute later*

Me: Place were I work, this is me, how can I help you?

Man on phone: I want to order tickets for an event on Friday.

Me: Did you just call a minute ago?

Man: Yes. No one answered the phone so I want to order tickets from you.

Me:Sir, I'm sorry but you can't order tickets from me. We do not handle the ticket sales for that event. You will have to talk to someone in events. If they're not at their desk at this moment you can leave a message and they will return your call.

Man: Sure.

Me: *I transfer him again*

*He calls back a minute later*

Me: Place were I work, this is me, how can I help you?

Man on phone: I want to order tickets for an event on Friday.

Me: Sir...did you leave a message for events?

Man: I didn't. I want to order tickets from you.

Me: Sir, I cannot. Sell. You. Those. Tickets. You have to leave a message with events.

Man: ...You should have said that before.
