Just got another.

Been fixing this computer for a crack head moron and he has called and dropped into the store three times the last couple of days. He was Jonesing for his computer.

So, I call him up just now and get his Dad.

Me: "Hello, is Mark there?"
Dad: "Yeah, he's upstairs"

Maybe ten seconds of silence ensues, with me starting to weep at just how stupid humanity has become.

Finally, the Dad speaks again.

Dad: "Do you want to speak to him?"
Me: To myself I say not really, to the Dad "Yes please"

While I'm waiting, my partner here says "I won't be able to pay for it until I get my check".

Mark comes on the phone.

Me: "This is David, the computer guy. Your computer (you know, the one you keep getting up my ass about) is ready to be picked up.

Mark: "Uhh, I have to wait for my check before I can pay for it"
