Dumbass Custys: I Can Feel My I.Q. Points Plummeting With Every Second I Talk To You...
From: mistress_compersion
Short story but I got a good chuckle out of it.
A customer was spelling her company name out to me. Her company name starts with 'C'.
She said: "C like Kansas."
I mention I hadn't caught the first letter of her company name.
She says: "C like Kansas. C - a - n - s - a - s."
Me: "......Ok, got it. Thanks. C like cat."
Her: "Yes, or Kansas."
At the big red Z, a friend once had an Indian caller say in all seriousness, "H like eagle". Even repeated it several times when asked to clarify...
After that, we found a list of evil phonetics, all accurate but confusing. Things like K as in Knife, E like in eye, P as in Pneumatic...

"Her: "Yes, or Kansas.""
Me: "Kansas is spelled with a k. Google it."
