    Did someone spike the chocolate with stupid pills?

    I have had so many people this week who are either unable to comprehend basic information, dispute stated facts with irrefutable evidence or just don’t fucking read.

    These are people who I dealt with last week who were cogent, alert and knew exactly what was happening and how things worked.

    I can understand it happening on Tuesday when everyone came back to work and were still in holiday mode, but it is now three days later.

        Yeah. I’m like that quite often too. Phone keypads and numeric keypads are upside down.

        Often I just copy/paste or type the number into my VoIP phone app on my computer, especially after the third failed attempt.

        But what we have dealt with this week is just a whole new level of stupid. I have had a few AITA moments wondering if I am having too-high expectations of customers, but when my colleagues concur that the customer is a dead-set cock-head, I feel vindicated.
