Strawberry?
A lady comes up to the counter speaking in Japanese asking for shaved ice.
Customer: (Japanese) Excuse me.
Me: (English) Hi, what can I get for you?
(I generally avoid speaking Japanese, especially to middle-age Japanese women cause they become really demanding once they know you also speak Japanese.)
Customer: (English) Shaved ice? What's the flavour?
Me: It's right there on the menu, we only have one kind, cassis and cream.
Customer: ... Strawberry, can I get strawberry?
Me: There is no strawberry flavour, there's only one kind.
Customer: Where?
(By now I'm getting quite annoyed because she's staring at the damn menu while saying this.)
Me: *points* Here.
Customer: Ca... ssis... *hands $5*
Me: Okay, thank you, just be a couple minutes.

Seriously... these people... makes me want to throw something at them. Often times customers are staring at the menu where the price is written and they're like "so... how much is it?" What's worse is that some of these people ask this, open their wallets and I see that they have a student card for one of the 'best' university around the area. /rant
