Today was a bit insane....
first call of the day i mad a woman with post natal depression hysterical I feel guilty about it but TBF didn't know she had PND and she did give me the wrong information, but i did apologise
another call asked me if i could issue a certificate he sat at another company.
And my last customer of the day...
Him:

Me: Yes
Him: So you can teach me to cook
Me: ummm no,
Him: Can you get me a job
Me: Sorry you would need to contact a recruitment agency we are just a training provider.
Him: who will give me a job then
me: ummm cotnact a recruitment agency
Him : (crying) I haven't had a job in 32 years
Me: um
Him: and i haven't had a haircut in 3 years
Me: um
Him: (perfectly calm again) so what sort of courses do you do.
Me: Mostly offshore survival
Him: eh?
Me: helicopter safety for going to the rigs
Him: So you can teach me to fly a helicopter to the rigs
Me: Ummm no we can teach you to survive if it ditches in the sea when you are travelling to the rigs
Him: So if i come down there on Monday you can give me a job and off we'll go
Me: umm no contact a recruitment agency
Him: I'd love to fly a helicopter
Me: (thinking) not a hope in hell

Him: WILL YOU GIVE ME A BUBBLE BATH
