Hahahahaha .....Ummm Yep
Orders I love - the killers are such as below
Me: Hello
Caller" Ummmm Hi, This is Fred Burrful, from Southern Ohio, ya know, down by the river (Next 8 minutes of his life story and we get to the issue finally).
Me: You say you are looking for a hydraulic pump?
Caller: Yes, it's for my 1982 Massey Ferguson Combine and it's there, down dere by the wheels
Me: Sir, what you are describing is a hydraulic motor.
Caller: No, it already has a gas motor on it, this is on the hydraulic side.
Me: At any rate, these units were typically made by the XYZ hydraulic company, and they went obsolete in the late 90's
Caller: Oh, can you still get them then?
Me: No sir, by going obsolete, they are no longer available and parts are not made for them anymore.
Caller: Oh (Long silence) ........ Well, can you fix it then?
Me: No sir, it's obsolete and I can no longer replace or repair it.
Caller: Well, are you sure there aren't some parts laying around somewhere.
Me: I don't know Sir, My International Parts Inventory of All Parts In The World made since the Industrial Age has not been updated.
Caller: Well, what am I supposed to do then.
Me: The Internet is your friend Sir ......
Caller: You mean a computer ?
And on and on Ad Nauseum
You get the picture LOL
