Idiot Sighting

[Skyview69]

Be Careful Out There:

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.'

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 , 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

I went into a McDonalds and ordered a cheese burger off the dollar menu, 6 pc nugets and a coke.  The girl at the register told me they did not have any more soda........ So I said ok just the burger and nugets... she then looked at me with a straight face and said that will be $14.37.

I asked her if she was sure about that and she looked at the computer screen again and said yep $14.37

I told her to forget it and walked out and drove down the street to Taco Bell.
