Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I find it hilarious and rather scary that there are actually idiots like this. This was in a myspace bulletin my friend posted.
IDIOT SIGHTING: We had to have the garage door repaired. The Sears
repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a
'large' enough motor on the opener. I thought for a minute, and said that
we had the largest one Sears made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower. He
shook his head and said, 'Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower.' I responded
that 1/2 was larger than 1/4. He said, 'NO, it's not.' Four is larger
than two..' We haven't used Sears repair since.
IDIOT SIGHTING My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out
window and I gave the clerk a $5 bill. Our total was $4.25, so I also
handed her a quarter. She said, 'you gave me too much money.' I said,
'Yes I know, but this way you can just give me a dollar bill back.' She
sighed and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat my request. I
did so, and he handed me back the quarter, and said 'We're sorry but
they could not do that kind of thing.' The clerk then proceeded to give
me back $1 and 75 cents in change. Do not confuse the clerks at McD's.
IDIOT SIGHTING: I live in a semi rural area. We recently had a new
neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the
removal of the DEER CROSSING sign on our road. The reason: 'Too many deer
are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for
them to be crossing anymore.' From Kingman , KS .
IDIOT SIGHTING IN FOOD SERVICE: My daughter went to a local Taco Bell
and ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for
'minimal lettuce.' He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce.
From Kansas City
IDIOT SIGHTING: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an
airport employee asked, 'Has anyone put anything in your baggage
without your knowledge?' To which I replied, 'If it was without my
knowledge, how would I know?' He smiled knowingly and nodded, 'That's why we ask.' Happened in Birmingham , Ala.
IDIOT SIGHTING: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to
cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged
coworker of mine. She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained
that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she
responded, 'What on earth are blind people doing driving?!' She was a
probation officer in Wichita , KS
IDIOT SIGHTING: At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker.
She was leaving the company due to 'downsizing.' Our manager commented
cheerfully, 'This is fun. We should do this more often.' Not another
word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that
deer-in-the-headlights stare. This was a lunch at Texas Instruments.
IDIOT SIGHTING: I work with an individual who plugged her power strip
back into itself and for the sake of her life, couldn't understand why
her system would not turn on. A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriffs
office, no less.
IDIOT SIGHTING: When my husband and I arrived at an automobile
dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it.
We went to the service department and found a mechanic working
feverishly to unlock the drivers side door. As I watched from the passenger
side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was
unlocked. 'Hey,' I announced to the technician, 'its open!' His reply, 'I
know. I already got that side.' This was at the Ford dealership in
Canton , Mississippi
STAY ALERT!
They walk among us... and the scary part is that they VOTE and they
REPRODUCE !
