You're a day late and a dollar short:
I had just gotten a job at a garden center, and I was really desperate for the job at the time, and taking everything very seriously. Guy called in asking for left-handed shovels. I spent an hour trying to get him to understand that all shovels can be used equally well by left-handed people, and he was getting very beligerant about it.
I later came to find out the guy on the phone was my new boss... :)
I drove up to the drive-thru at KFC the other day. I shit you not....They said "Sorry, we have no chicken".

Did they ever?
I always thought it was pidgin.

That has happened to me as well. Columbia, SC in like 1994 - drove up, ordered chicken, they said "Just sold our last piece - sorry!" And I'm like "No problem!" and drove off. Then I'm like "Wait a minute here!"
If a KFC ever runs out of chicken they should lose their franchise.

**************************** GF got a burger from Wendy's (Auburn, NY) with no burger once.Ever see a gull scavenging in a KFC parking lot?
Lots of "em at McDonalds....
LOL! I went to Kenny Rogers Roasters a number of years ago and was told the same thing. They had run out and more was cooking, but it would be an hour until it was ready.
Without batting an eye, I asked to talk to Kenny.

Actually it's not. It's not price fixing and it's not illegal either. Price fixing would involve collusion among retailers all agreeing not discount goods or to artificially inflate the prices of an item. The manufacturer has every right to tell the dealers what the item is to be sold for. The retailer can choose to sell the product or not. There are many manufacturers that follow this business model. Some commonly recognized ones are Bose speakers and Saturn.
