Hoo boy. How is everyone doing? I’ve got a funny little story to make your mornings.
My boss gets a call around 7:45 AM yesterday morning. Our shop opens at 7am on the dot. This lady is calling us to say her husband is standing out front but the door is locked. My boss gets his number to contact him, and contacts my coworker B. My boss is of course freaking out because maybe B had slept in or got in an accident and she was the only employee who opens on slower days like Tuesdays.
B is super confused saying she had been there since 6:30 to clean and prep, and to her knowledge there was no man standing outside. So my boss calls the man. He is LIVID saying he had an appointment set for 7am and it was very unprofessional of us. She asks him exactly where he’s at, address and landmarks, car make/model. Eventually we get down to why he can’t seem to get inside and why we can’t find him.
He went to PetSmart. The closest one to us is about 2 miles down the road. Totally different shopping center. Things happen though, but my boss can’t help but pause for a good few seconds and calmly state “....sir...you called XYZ grooming salon....you are at a PetSmart...” He hung up. Didn’t hear from him or his wife after that. Needless to say we had a good laugh at that one.
