Customer comes in, needs something reprinted from ZIP disk. Okay, not a problem. It's in CorelDraw. Problem. We only have that on one computer, and that's being used by another customer (a very attractive woman).

And so the conversation goes:

Me: "Sir, the computer I need to open this file is being used right now. We only have CorelDraw on one computer, and that lady is using it right now."

The Moron: "Well, I need this. Can you ask them to log off?"

Me: "Sir, I can't ask them to get off the computer. We'll just have to wait for them to be finished."

Moron: "Well, how long will they be on?"

Me: "I don't know. It's against company policy to rush anyone on the computers. It's first come, first serve when it comes to the computers. You'll just have to wait."

Moron: "Well, can't you ask them to get off the computer?"

Me: "Sir, I already said that I cannot. It's against company policy for me to do so."

Moron: "I need that computer. It will just be for a couple minutes."

Of course, at this point, the lady has overheard most of this conversation, and lets me know she'll be done in 10 or so minutes. The moron says he'll be right back, leaves the store, and never comes back.

What a shithead. If I see this asshat again, and he refuses to comprehend English, I might let a few choice comments fly.
