When I was still working, folks would often say to me "you can't do that", and I would reply and here (here is my quote) "I am dong it and I think what you meant to say is that you'd prefer I didn't do that"

Our motto was "the customer is always wrong".

The quote was new to me before hearing Mark Shields use it on PBS last night. It was too good to ignore.
