Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions

[scotty-2-forty]

When it comes to those questions that REALLY make you wonder if a person should be working on their car AT ALL - what are some of the most ridiculous questions you've ever heard? As a plus, and sarcastically speaking of course, what was or would your reply be?

Mine personal favorite (happened to me):

A boy comes into my old speed-shop and asks,
"What can I do for $50 to make my car faster?"

My reply was,
"Give me your money and we'll have it towed."

I don't think this particular kid was creative enough or even capable.

"I have to change the oil?" "Whats that?"

[BusyBadger]

Not a stupid question, but an old boss of mine replied to the age-old cry of the dissatisfied customer,"I'm never coming back here again!" with "Well, I guess that will solve both of our problems."

^i'm quick to tell someone with an attitude, nothing at all, followed with, get out. It's the best response to solve a problem immediately. Especially with customers that love to make a scene with other customers in store, solely based off of, they have no clue how it works or how it functions. I don't know how Hardcore Pawn deals with it. Tsk Tsk.

This is just about unbelievable, but it's true. You know you have those friends that aren't really good at anything? Well I have one like that. One time he asked me if when you put a car in reverse, does the crankshaft spin the opposite way.... Seriously.

^ Yep. Probably should not be working on cars.

Nothing beats that feeling of being better then someone else, does it.

It was only a matter of time ... ignore him and he'll go away. No Encryptshun ...... NO! DON'T FEED HIM!

Eh, Dave's not a troll. He just plays one on the internet.

You can tell his heart isn't in it -- he's too helpful.
