    Me: “Thank you for calling [satellite company]. How can I be of assistance?”

    Customer: “I need you to move the satellite, please.”

    Me: “I’m sorry?”

    Customer: “Well, I want to watch the movie but we’re having a storm. Can you move the satellite closer so I can see the rest of the movie?”

    Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, but the satellite is in space and I can’t just move it closer to you.”

    Customer: “Okay. Well, can you pause the channel until the storm is over then?”

    Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, that is a broadcast going to everyone at the same time. We cannot pause the broadcast.”

    Customer: “Okay, just replay the movie for me. I get home from work about 5, so if you could start it at 6 I’ll have time to make a bite to eat first.”

    Me: “Ma’am, that is not how the broadcast works.”

    Customer: “You’re just not helpful AT ALL!”
