Rather funny customer today

[dagored]

I don't think the OP either set out to hurt the guy's pride, nor frankly, was he responsible for protecting it either. He tried to help the guy and it just didn't work out the way he expected. Everybody needs to stop inserting their own personal sensitivities and context into what the OP actually said.

Exactly. I agree totally.

But remember, no good deed goes unpunished.

Nice made up story, as if you listened in on someones conversation, rudely interrupted it and then got am potential customer so angry he left the store...

If you had done that and I was your boss, I'd be firing you out of a cannon

(its hard to understand some people still don't know what an iPad is, but I can manage)

I was rather confused with this line, how would anyone come up with this kind of nonsense
...

"Excuse me sir, the iPad 1 is not equipped with a camera"
...

I had trouble holding my laugh and told him it was the lightsensor for the screen to dim in dark situations.

Oh my, you sound just like Sheldon Cooper from TBBT, LOL

I don't think the OP did anything wrong, he just could have just not delivered the info of the iPad 1 at all. There are many ways and versions of how it could have been done differently but a lot of times when you bust somebody out in front of their loved one, it doesn't go to well.
