Conversations I am being paid very little to have

ME: Hello, thank you for calling, what can I help you with?
HER: Hi, I'm looking for a book, and it's called having moose for dinner.
ME: What sort of moose are we talking about here?
HER: Huh?
ME: Moose the animal, or mousse the food?
HER: Y'know, like a moose.
ME: Moose as in the 4 legged moose animal who lives in the forest and may or may not have antlers, or mousse as in the tasty chocolate dessert food which you would eat after a meal.
HER: Oh! The animal.

And the best part? The book in question was a picture book for children teaching them about homophones with silly pictures of misunderstood words.
