I thought these were cute and reminded me of a guy that I work with that should never be within 100 feet of a computer. He had gotten an error message that said "Hit any key to continue," well, he tried to figure it our himself, but finally called me back to his cubicle and asked me where the any key was. Needless to say, I was not able to help him for awhile due to excessive laughter.

Movin' on up!
These sound like some of the idiots, who come into my Walgreen's.

A couple of weeks ago, after I finished ringing up her order, a woman asked, "Can you tell me where I can find a pharmacy?" I, almost, sent her to Osco!

I wonder how some people get through life. It's scary to think how dumb some folks are. When I used to waitress, I loved when people asked me stupid questions like: Do you have coffee?
I wanted to reply: Is there a restaurant that doesn't?

Barb, Doesn't the rudeness and stupidity amaze you at times? I finally got out of the industry about 2 years ago. It was a good thing, it made me an evil person. People can be so rude and demanding. I couldn't take it, I was afraid I would say something really nasty.

Some people's rudeness and stupidity amaze me.

Brian works for an excavation company and mostly he does septic repairs. One day him and his partner where working on a system when the homeowner came out to see how they were doing. Brian's partner has psoriasis(Chronic skin condition that looks like red patches on the skin) and the homeowner obviously taking note of this said to him, "Don't you know what poison ivy looks like to stay out of it by now?" His partner became rather annoyed by this man's comment turned to him and told him it was psoriasis. The homeowner then said "Oh, my sister has that." John replied back "Then why don't you know what it looks like then?" The homeowner decided it was time to head back inside.

Another time while they were pumping a system the homeowner came out and asked them, "Can you guess what we've been eating?"
