My Uncle and I went to Dick's today to buy some worms.  We get to to the ckeckout lane to pay. The cashier rings up our worms and tells us the total.  My Uncle, with a very serious look on his face, says to the cashier "are these worms guaranteed to catch fish?"  The cashier, totally stumped by the question, replied "I, uh, don't know. Let me call the manager," to which she announces over the loud speaker for manager assistance. I had to excuse myself from the line before I made a puddle on the floor and my Uncle quickly said "it's okay, I'll buy them either way" and paid.  

That is awesome.....

I would be dieing of laughter!!

N-I-C-E  !!!!!

very nice ;D ;D ;D

That's pretty good, but in her defense she probably deals with a lot of morons on a daily basis and is simply conditioned to take everything they say seriously.

I'm not saying you or your Uncle are morons, but that the general population of America are.

There's a convenience store near me that sells worms and minnows - when my son was younger we would always stop in there on the way to the lake - one day they had a new girl working the register - I put the box of worms on the counter and asked her if she would count them to make sure there were a dozen - her eyes got big, she looked around at the Manager and whispered "No!" and rang up my purchase.

Haha! Whenever I go to Wal-Mart, and the people ask if they could help me, I ask for either braided fishing line, off-set hooks, or Senkos. The stares I get are priceless.

Wow I don't think I have ever had an employ communicate with me in my local walmart... until I got to the checkout.

your walmart personnel are doing a terrible job at the "10 foot rule" then, meaning every associate is supposed to make eye contact and ask if you need help if they are within 10 feet of you. even I am required to, and I am not a sales associate, but rather an automotive technician. so, someone is dropping the ball there.

and yes, the associates in sporting goods don't know jack about the products in their departments, but they aren't given formal training about anything they sell, just about the store. can't blame them for being assigned to that department.
