This is a question Customers from Hell

The customer is always right. And yet, as 'listentomyopinion' writes, this is utter bollocks.

Tell us of the customers who were wrong, wrong, wrong but you still had to smile at (if only to take their money.)

Porn Free
I once had a great job in the happy world of internet pornography. Sadly for the rest of the world, my role was strictly limited to web-programming (sure, they begged me many times, "Please, just one photo-shoot, delight our female readers with your sheer manly physical perfection", but, y'know, my morals forbade it) (That's despite it looking like a Victorian policeman's truncheon with a peach on the end) (Really). Customers From Hell were a rare thing - It's surprising how few people feel the urge to phone up and complain about the bongo-site they've subscribed to. We did, however, get some lovely letters.

We once produced a free sampler CD-ROM which included some free nudey photos and acted as a grubby gateway to our sites. We advertised this in a number of skin-magazines, some of which were popular in Ghana, of all places. One day we received a letter from a Ghanaian reader.

"Please would you send me your free CD-ROM"

Which we did, poste haste.

A couple of weeks later, we received another letter from the same chap.

"Thank you kindly for the free CD-ROM. Please could you send me a computer to use it in."

You can't blame him for trying.
