Not Going To Help?

I was at the register today when a woman wandered up. She was on her cell phone and this is what she said: "Hold on a second. This lady's not going to help me unless I put down the phone."

Well, actually, I can't help you until you speak to me! Otherwise I have no idea what you want!!!

She probably didn't mean it the way it sounded, but it was still irksome.

Yes, it was an illogical statement in many ways. E.g., she did not need to put down the phone to speak to you, because she really only needed to catch your eye and start talking to you.
