And someone tried to bring their support possum in with them. Had to tell them to put it in their car and come back.

This was a day after someone brought in their pet monkey who got away and climbed a lady's leg. Didn't hurt her, but startled her pretty good. I didn't see it as I was working the help desk. She walked up and said "that monkey just ran up my leg". Thought she'd lost her mind
