Hello! Hello? Jacksonville?
My field manager took this phone call Sunday...
manager: Hello. T-Square Paintball.
caller: Yeah could you help me with directions?
manager: Sure. Where are you located?
caller: I'm in the Walmart parking lot in Jacksonville.
manager: Oh. No problem... (she starts giving directions)
caller: (interrupting) That doesn't sound right. I think you have the wrong Walmart.
manager: Sir. There is only one Walmart in Jacksonville.
caller: No. There's two. I'm in the Walmart parking lot off of Beach Street.
manager: Ummmm... Sir, there is no Beach Street in Jacksonville.
caller: Sure there is. I'm looking at the street sign.
manager: Beach Street? (and then being the smart girl she is she asks) Sir. Where did you say you were calling from?
caller: (irratated) The Walmart parking lot. Beach Street. In Jacksonville!
manager: What state are you calling from?
caller: Florida. I'm in the Walmart parking lot on Beach Street in Jacksonville, Florida.
manager: Sir. You called T-Square Paintball in Jacksonville, ARKANSAS!!!
caller: Oh.And he hung up before we could figure out how he could have possibly gotten the area codes so crossed up!
Again... we don't make this stuff up, folks! Don't even ask about the couple of times my Pro-shop orders arrived with sand in them!
