Scary thoughts...they walk among us

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 Were 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.'

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.

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 , AL

 

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 Sheriff’s 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, 'it's open!' His reply, 'I know. I already 
got that side.'

This was at the Ford dealership in Canton, MS

 


STAY ALERT!
They walk among us... and the scary part is that they VOTE and 
REPRODUCE and our enemies know it!!!
