Mr Customer: “How much does this machine weigh?”
me: “I really don’t know. I’m a robot guy, but I can get you someone who can tell you exactly how much”
Mr Customer:”Can’t you make a guess?”

Mr Customer:”Well, just take a guess”
me:” It’ll most certainly be wrong, so I’ll just go get X, and he’ll give you an accurate number”
Mr Customer:” Dammit, can’t you just answer a simple question? I’m not gonna hold you to it”
me:” Well, in my admittedly totally incapable opinion, i’d say around 13,000 lbs”
Mr Customer: “You’re wrong, it can’t possibly weigh that much”
me:”……”

Machine salesman:”No, he’s wrong. That machine weighs 13,120 lbs”

Good god.
