Why I hate working reception, part 1

Kid: Sir, do you have any tennis balls behind the desk?
(Note: We used to have various balls, before the kids borrowed them and didn't return them)
Me: No, we don't have any types of balls anymore.
Second kid (who was standing behind the first): Sir, do you have any tennis balls?
Me: No, we don't have any types of balls anymore.
Inner me: I'm sorry, I didn't manage to alter reality in the 15 seconds since I was last asked.
Second kid: Do you have any other sorts of balls?
Me: No, we don't have any types of balls anymore.
Inner me: Graaaargh!

Sadly, I fear that would be an act of Hubris, and I can't afford the Wisdom hit...
