Good for a quick giggle...
Received this from an old friend...
IDIOTS IN SERVICE: This week, our phones went dead and I had to
contact the telephone repair people. They promised to be out between 8:00 a.m.
and 7:00 p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time window, the
pleasant gentleman asked, "Would you like us to call you before we come?" I
replied that I didn't see how he would be able to do that since our phones
weren't working. He also requested that we report future outages by e-mail.
(Does YOUR e-mail work without a telephone line?).
IDIOTS AT WORK: I was signing the receipt for my credit card
purchase when the clerk noticed I had never signed my name on the back of the
credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the transaction
unless the card was signed. When I asked why, she explained that it was
necessary to compare the signature I had just signed on the receipt. So I
signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared the signature
to the one I had just signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they
matched.
IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: I live in a semi-rural area. We
recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to
request theremoval of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: too many
deer were being hit by cars and she didn't want them to cross there
anymore. I could swear I've recently been with some of these people...
IDIOTS 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.
IDIOT SIGHTING #1: 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?" She smiled knowingly and added, > > "That's why we ask."
IDIOT SIGHTING #2: At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear
co-worker who is leaving the company due to "downsizing," our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this more often." Not a word
was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that
deer-in-the-headlights stare.
IDIOT SIGHTING #3: I work with an individual who plugged her power
strip back into itself and for the life of her couldn't understand why
her system would not turn on.
