When I worked at Lowe’s I got asked a bunch of stuff every day. Where are the nails? What type of battery does this drill need? Do you sell (insert product name here), etc. I never minded helping cuz that was my job and plus the store has a TON of stuff and it can be hard to find everything. Well, one day I am out working in lawn and garden and some guy comes up to me all flustered. He tells me that he wants to buy some dirt for his garden. I asked him if he needed help finding it, but then he tells me he found it, but that he needs a "clean bag of dirt.” I honestly thought I was being punked by my boss. Then I realize he is DEAD serious.

I politely explained that sometimes the bags of dirt leak and they can spill onto the other bags. I told him to pick the ones he wanted and I could wipe them off for him. He seemed ok with this solution, bought the dirt and was on his way. I had NEVER seen my boss laugh so hard when I told him what happened.
