    Default Wanted:good comeback line for "Do you know what your doing?"

    It really ****s me at work when some wanker comes in a to get some job done by me and they ask me "do you know what your doing?"
    I have been doing my line of work for many years and certainly know what I'm doing
    What witty comeback can I use instead of breaking their nose with a head butt to the face?!

    When someone asks you "do you know what your doing", it's best to just say you don't have a clue. It sets their expectations for you lower, and their appreciation for the end product higher.

    I usually say "if I did know what im doing, I wouldn't be here". Im a pain in the arse at work I often annoy other people by saying is "is it time to go home yet" no matter what time in the day it is.

    Just say back - "Since when are you paid to ask the questions?"

    I have used this one to great effect, especially to people who try to be smart and ### me over in front of my boss.

    "I have a pretty piece of paper which says i can, would you like me to fetch it for you?"

    And if they ask to see it, get a piece of paper and write "YES" in big letters across it

    say:

    "I do..... do you?"

    or

    "(pick up a hammer) I do now!!!"
    Once a Mercedes is up to cruising speed it lopes along easily and is happy sitting on 180+ km/h all day. Please check the speed limits in your area before attempting this…

    Why do you need comebacks? People like assurance, anybody with any customer service skills will simply say "Yes Sir/Ma'am i do, i have had many years experience in my industry" this will set people at ease and alot of people will tell their friends how polite you were, not how rude you were. Having a comeback is the losers way of doing things. As the penguins say "Smile and Wave boys, Smile and wave" this will get you much further then any idiotic comeback to piss off a customer who is paying for your services.

    Wow exactly my thoughts. Whats the point of being a smart ass to customers? No customers, no business. I guess gibbo wont be lasting very long in his current job if he takes some of the advice given here...
