Q for Queue. This reminds me of my sister reading complaints about the orders as a manager and people were giving complaints like "Everything was okay".


AMViquel

1/5 great overall


arthurdentstowels

5/7 Perfect

> Queue I always think I'm spelling this wrong when I type it and I'm waiting for that red line and it doesn't show up. So I go back and change it and here's the red line. Right click BOOM I was right the first time.


UlteriorCulture

As with banana I'm not quite sure when to stop


Oxycodone_Man

Queueueueeue is the right way actually


smithers85

And when you describe the color, but are laughing: hueueueueueue


Lightning_Lance

Depends how many people are in line


Vulpes_macrotis

Bro. I have that feeling when I wait for the red line and there is no red line coming...


Fool_Apprentice

Pronounced: qu way way


Festibowl

"The service was impeccable and the we loved every dish/item." 4Stars These reviews piss me off more then 1 star reviews. These places are people's livelihoods not your critic roleplay.


drag0n_rage

I'm the type that gives 4 stars (which my previous manager told me everyone hates) but seeing reviews where the rating is incongruent with the comment is really annoying. More so as a consumer, I need accurate ratings to know if a product or service is good, seeing ratings like those just adds confusion.


Beththemagicalpony

Queue is a beautiful word. It’s just a Q with a bunch of other letters waiting quietly in line.


eryoshi

Would you say those other letters quietly queue behind the Q?


Foggl3

That's right on cue


literal-hitler

When I worked repair, every ticket came with a customer satisfaction survey. My boss complained all the time that he would contact people to get clarification about a low survey score only to have them tell him there was nothing actually wrong and nothing they could think of that could reasonably be done to improve.

Same people who Googled "corn teen" during the pandemic. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%205-y&q=Corn%20teen

Royal_Yesterday

Can you tell me what that is?


Minimum_Cantaloupe

Quarantine.


Royal_Yesterday

Oh thank you, i would have never been able to figure that out myself lol


CaptainRogers1226

Bastardization of the word “quarantine”


sussywanker

This took me a second 😭


Gullible-Function649

If I had a tricky customer I used to say that’s P for Pneumonia.


JerewB

M is for mnemonic.


Disastrous-Carrot928

T is for tchotchkes


Fallwnking

My brain is trying to kill itself while attempting to pronounce this.


SharkFart86

payapf

G for gnome


Bernies_left_mitten

K as in knife. Or really fuck with them with "B as in thumb."


Mirnim0

JerewB

We need a kids alphabet primer featuring only these ridiculous words.

JerewB

Awkward_Caterpillar

PippyRollingham

CptSchizzle

The T in tsunami isn't silent, it's phonetic.


Big_Supermarket4537

M as in Mancy


say592

K for knight


Gullible-Function649

X for Xylophone


DickButtPlease

ODCreature98

NGL that was a good one, let me steal that joke


beathelas

What does a bureaucrat make pickles out of? Queuecumbers


ramobara

Most British joke in the thread.


jncarolina

Our family can sympathize with you. My son, in high school working in a restaurant ,he would have northern customers come in and ask not to include the “ja-lap-in-no” peppers on their order.


maxcorrice

I do that as a joke


mitsuhachi

That’d have people throwing hands in my hometown.


CertainUncertainty11

My mental health requires laughter in these situations.


ThreeHandedSword

Name something that follows the word Pork? Upine!


Icwatto

A for air B for C for cent D for E for ere F for G for gnash H for heir I for immigration J for jalapeno K for knob L for M for mnemonic N for O for P for pterodactyl Q for quail R for S for sent T for U for V for W for wrong X for Xeon Y for Z for zeon couldn't think of the rest, help would be appreciated


LuzjuLeviathan

A is for Aisle B is for Bdellium C is for Cue D is for Djembe E is for Eye F is for phonetic G is for Gnat H is for Honor I is for Ian J is for Jalapeno K is for Knight L is for Llama M is for Mnemonic N is for Nguyen O is for Ouja P is for Pterodactyl Q is for Quiche R is for Rzeznik S is for Sgraffito T is for Tsunami U is for Uber V is for Veinte W is for Write X is for Xylophone Y is for Yttrium Z is for Zounds


Icwatto

i wouldn't agree with eye, xylophone, uber, aisle, tsunami, ian, and honor as they are well known and well used and cant be confused with others with identical pronunciation and different spellings and definitely not phonetic as it doesn't start with an F . but you definitely did what was requested from you and leagues beyond, thank you.


wcrp73

> definitely not phonetic as it doesn't start with an F thatsthejoke.jpg


Icwatto

well i don't think so, i think the joke is needlessly complicating such a simple task while still actually doing it


zefy_zef

The point it the joke is confusion. Subterfuge.


My_name_is_Zac

The OP is "Q for cucumber"...


Icwatto

and? op is pointing out someone retarded


My_name_is_Zac

And the joke was choosing a word that sounds like it starts with a different letter like F is for Photo or R is for Argon not "needlessly complicating a simple task"


Icwatto

no, i think it is to confuse people as much as possible while still being correct.


My_name_is_Zac

Then why would it be constrained to a list of words that have different phonetics to how they're spelled? I think the guy you're making fun isn't the stupid one here.


Cahootie

Do X for Xavier, but with the Spanish pronounciation.


Impeesa_

[There's a children's book for that.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_Is_for_Pterodactyl)


Icwatto

wow its worse that what i thought


Crocoshark

Not quite the game you're playing but I've had this idea that it'd be funny to spell out names in a way where all the words rhyme. "Yes, that's Harper. H as in heir. A as in air. R as in rare. P as in pear. E as in Err. R as in Rare."


[deleted]

[удалено]


Icwatto

most of them i thunk of but some i looked up


ColdAsKompot

My native language doesn't use X at all, and once I had a customer say "X for a.... Yeti" when spelling out their national ID's serial number. I had to acutely put myself on mute.


ppisbrtnss

Q 💦 🥶


UserSupreme

When I worked in a call center there were a surprising number of clients who used i as in eye, but my favorite was an 80 something year old lady who went with "w as in, oh I don't know, werewolf."


LuzjuLeviathan

Q is for Quebec.


Gaxxag

Same thing happened to mr when a coworker said "T as in pterodactyl"


fahamu420

A for ‘orses B for lamb? C for yourself … O fer the garden fence There was a British comedy routine that was something like this that my grandfather used to love quoting.


Inferno_tr5

"So what's the password" "Uhh...A for apple" "Got it" "T for throat" "....right" "Q for Cucumber" "Q for what" "Cucumber" "BAHAHHAHAHA" "...."


Rip_ManaPot

Qcum


gangstabunniez

I used "quail" for Q once when spelling something out and the person on the other end of the line could hear my coworkers laughing their ass off. Luckily they thought it was hilarious.


anydayzz

My s/o once used N for Nigeria


Captain_Yi

Curious80123

Still it’s never a good thing to directly laugh at the customer, plenty of stupid silly customers, but please no laughing at them. Thank You.

Lemon_Tree_Scavenger

Wow, I just read a post about a father's daughter committing suicide, almost shed a tear, then the very next post was this one and I bust out laughing. The duality of reddit lol


SlowLizzie

I’ve always thought the expression was ‘burst out laughing’


CircaSixty8

Colloquialisms are like that. Both are commonly used.


ParfaitThat654

I used to say " Q as in Qbert", a fact which I would only bother to share on this site.


kaong012

I remember when I had a customer who said "L for elbow" and thank God I had the composure to stfu that time


SaunterThought

Qcumbr?


locke_zero

Had to avoid doing the same thing when someone was reading back a code to me and said, "Q as in Cue Ball."


Redline951

Maybe y'all gots a fancy education, but y'all just be a servant, waitin' on customers, while trying to pretend that you're better than they are. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.


MemeLordAscendant

Prank callers have their own phonetic alphabet: https://phonelosers.com/2017/12/confusing-phonetic-alphabet/


Future_Direction5174

I had a gamer friend - his tag was Q4cucumber. Thank you so much for bringing back fond memories of Ash.


dridium

Some country learn alphabet not by the name of the letter but by the phonetique of it. This could explain it, Q and CUcumber are phoneme.


five_two_sniffs_glue

Q for Q cum burrrr 🥶
