Today at work I got my 9,000th call asking when the movie Ong-Bak is coming to DVD. Now normally I don't mind being asked when a movie is coming out but since its a foreign movie no one seems to believe me when I say I know what it is.

Me: How can I help you?
Idiot: Do you know when Ong-Bak is coming out?
Me: We don't have a release date for that yet.
Idiot: You probably haven't heard of it its this foreign movie.
Me: I know the one you mean and we don't have a date yet.
Idiot: Here let me spell it for you O-N...
Me: No I know how to spell it and we don't have a release date for it yet.
Idiot: Its this martial arts movie and its spelled O-N-G-B-A-K
Me: We don't have a release date for it yet.
Idiot: Can't you just like look in your computer and see when its coming?
Me: I am looking at it right now and we don't have a release date yet.
Idiot: But it was in theaters like months ago and other stuff that was out after it you already have a release date for.
Me: Yes thats true but we still haven't gotten a release date for Ong-Bak.
Idiot: ok well I guess I'll call back later.

I got this call twice today. I've had it a number of times before. Its like somehow they think b/c its a foreign movie I can't possibly know that information off the top of my head. Its gotten to the point where when they start to disbelieve me I just say here let me check to make sure and I'll just set the phone down for a moment and do something else while I pretend to check then I pick it back up and tell them that in fact we still do not have a date for it. At which point they spell it for me again as if somehow they have more knowledge about it than I do. I just don't understand why they call me if they think they know so much. If I'm just some clueless employee than why the hell are they asking me? So basically I hate my job.
