Receptionist: "Thank you for calling The World's Greatest Veterinary Hospital, how may I help you?"
Caller: "I have a question about my dog eating peanut butter."
Receptionist: "Okay, how can I help?"
Caller: "Does it matter if he eats creamy or chunky peanut butter?"
Receptionist: "Um, unless he has a dietary problem with the peanuts, there shouldn't be a problem."
Caller: "No, you don't understand. I KNOW what I am talking about, but I want to know if it's okay if he eats the peanut butter that has the peanuts in it instead of the creamy kind without the peanuts in it."
Receptionist: "Again, unless your pet has an issue with eating peanuts, there shouldn't be a problem."
Caller (in frustration): "You're not getting me. Will the CHUNKY peanut butter hurt my dog where the CREAMY peanut butter will not?"
Receptionist: "Well, since it's all made from peanuts, I don't see how there could be a difference."
Caller: "click" (hangs up on her)
Receptionist bangs head on table.
Maybe the caller was worried about the peanuts scraping the dog's throat or something? Still. *headdesk*
ReplyDeleteMAYBE the caller thought the creamy one DIDN'T have peanuts in them?! Hah - there are silly people out there, i tell ya!

ReplyDeleteSure it's not a prank call? Had a guy call once wanting to know about Mad Cow Disease.....after trying to get across to him that we were a small animal clinic (must have spent about 10 minutes on that alone....) he finally goes, "Look! I just need to know what to do in case of Mad Cow Disease, cause I brought the wrong salad dressing home from the store and my wife is mad as hell!" I couldn't help it....I laughed....then I hung up.
