Here's mine:
My cleaning lady was arguing with me over how many hours she worked.
"Lady- Five, six, seven. Three hour!"
Lady, that's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.
She couldn't get past it. I gave in because I just wanted to see her go!

My little brother at age 2 would say "Bye bye, Mommy!" when he wanted to do something he wasn't allowed to.
Not how it works, kid.

Lol just this morning my three year old closed the door to my room while her little brother was crying so she can raid the fridge.

I have to give your cleaning lady credit. I imagine she knew she was taking you for a ride. Regardless of country of origin and language spoken, if you work from 5 to 7 it's only 2 hours. I guess it's worth a try for her! An hour of free wages!

I got a call from "Marriott Guest Services" telling me that my husband was planning a vacation for us but they just needed my credit card info and social security number to finalize everything.
Um, no. Sorry. That won't work.

A client called up complaining about his his bill saying he had no idea we charged for service calls. He argued that if he knew - he wouldn't have taken so much time.
Free service = our time isn't worth anything?

I know an adult like that IRL. A married man with kids, holding down a job... no one would guess he can literally barely count.
So whoever posted that she knew what she was doing, it may not be so.

My cleaning lady sounded pretty sincere. She was in tears when I tried telling her it was only two hours.
But how in the world does an adult like that hold up a job? You can imagine she never got any work from me again.

It's a mystery... but he manages. Obviously he's not an accountant. Or a rocket scientist.
He does have trouble figuring out when he can have a coffee on motzei shabbos... I've heard him ask his wife or others nearby to calculate it for him.

not sure if this counts but...
we recently bought a flipped house but we know who the previous owners were-it wsa in the same family for many years.... we were getting mail for a lady who's name didn't match the previous owners. one thing we got was a delivery of checkbooks. my dh called up the bank to let them know. a little later a lady came to our door stating that was her name and asking if there was any mail for her.
my dh played dumb and said yes and got her the non financial mail and handed it to her, saying nothing about the checks. he then called the bank and told them. they told us rip up anything else that comes. my dh works in the credit card business so he got suspicious very quickly. he said shes obviously doing something fishy but didn't think anyone would realize...
