Long time lurker, created an account for the sole purpose of sharing on part 2 of this thread, only to see it had been killed only a couple of hours earlier :(
So, if you'll allow this lurker to start, here is my contribution!
I work in a theatre, and we usually have multiple dance recitals every year, with tons of DWIL-worthy stories, but here's the first of the season! Tickets went on sale in the morning, we had a long line up when we opened, hen stragglers for the rest of the day. Around 3, a woman who looks like she's most likely a GM or GGM comes to m window.
GM: I need 2 tickets for the dance recital.
Me: Best available are here (pointing about 15 rows back on the map)
GM: Can you tell me where (name) is sitting?
Me: We can't give out patron information.
GM: It's my DIL.
Me: (assuming they wanted seats close) Well, all I can suggest is giving your DIL a call, and I can see if there's anything nearby but I doubt it at this point.
GM: I don't want to be close to her, I want to make sure my seats are better!
Me: ... I can't help you with that.
ETA: just changed some stuff about the theatre
