It's impossible to tell from such a brief exchange whether the guy was fishing for them to tell him exactly what to do or was genuinely unaware. "If you want something non-standard you need to spell out exactly what you want so my ass is covered when you're not satisfied" is not exactly an uncommon response to a request for something that isn't SOP.
