"Let's see sir, I see you want to purchase that that snow tire. In order to purchase that you also need to purchase a bag of gravel, a feather duster, a slightly used anvil, fish food, some lawn darts, and a set of encyclopedias from 1956."

4. Buying a car is already like that...

Remote start is only available on the XL model.

Oops! In order to get Sirius/XM, you must buy the Convenience package for $2,500.

So, the advertised model for $22,000 is only available to fleet buyers on special order, and the one I want is going to be $42,000?

5. One my jobs is assisting in moving seniors to assisted living or care homes.

One of my clients wanted to move her telephone number to her assisted living place. Her new place already has internet and cable but the only way I could move her number was agree to pay for internet and phone service Though ATT. I ended up paying for lower speed internet service to just so she could save her number. And it still cost $68 for a landline and slow internet.

10. I used to have lawn darts as a kid

If I ever see a set, I'm buying it! They were fun. You just have to be smart enough not to stand under them when they come down.
