A Brush with Swedish Stupidity
Sunday, January 7, 2007 at 11:01PM Here is my exchange with an Ikea customer service operator from earlier today:
Me:
Hey there. Is it possible to order a desktop for delivery?
Disinterested And Possibly Lobotomized Phone Drone:
Do you know the product name or code?
Me:
Yeah. It's the Vika Amon.
Disinterested And Possibly Lobotomized Phone Drone:
What color would you like?
Me:
White.
Disinterested And Possibly Lobotomized Phone Drone:
I'm sorry, sir. The Vika Amon only comes in White.
Me:
Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. I guess I'll take it in white then.
Disinterested And Possibly Lobotomized Phone Drone:
Okay. That will be $39.99 for the desktop, and let me look up how much for delivery. Let's see...shipping and handling will be...$285.
Nice.
