Funny: How Do These People Survive?
Recently, when I went to McDonald's I sawon the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 ChickenMcNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets. 'We don't have halfdozen nuggets,' said the teenager at the counter. 'You don't?' Ireplied. 'We only have six, nine, or twelve,' was the reply. 'So Ican't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?' She repliedback, 'That's right.' So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets.
I was checking out at the local Wal-Martwith just a few items and the lady behind me put her things on thebelt close to mine. I picked up one of those 'dividers' that they keepby the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn'tget mixed. After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked upthe 'divider', looking it all over for the bar code so she could scanit. Not finding the bar code she said to me, 'Do you know how muchthis is?' I said to her 'I've changed my mind, I don't think I'llbuy that today.' She said 'OK,' and I paid her for the things and
left. She had no clue to what had just happened.
A lady at work was seen putting a creditcard into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly. When Iinquired as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on theInternet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she wasusing the ATM 'thingy.'
I recently saw a distraught young lady weepingbeside her car. 'Do you need some help?' I asked. She replied, 'Iknew I should have replaced the battery to this remote door unlocker.Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a distantconvenience store) would have a battery to fit this?' 'Hmmm, I dunno.Do you have an alarm, too?' I asked. 'No, just this remote thingy,'she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I took the keyand manually unlocked the door, I replied, 'Why don't you drive overthere and check about the batteries. It's a long walk.'
Several years ago, we had an Intern who wasnone too swift. One day she was typing and turned to a secretary andsaid, 'I'm almost out of typing paper. What do I do?' 'Just usecopier machine paper,' the secretary told her. With that, the interntook her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on thephotocopier and proceeded to make five 'blank' copies.
