Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you
could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked
for a half dozen nuggets. "We don't have half dozen nuggets,"
said the teenager at the counter. "You don't?" I replied. "We only
have six, nine, or twelve," was the reply. "So I can't order a
half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?" "That's right." So I shook
my head and ordered six McNuggets.

I was checking out at the local Wal-Mart with just a few items
and the lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I
picked up one of those "dividers" that they keep by the cash
register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get
mixed. After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked
up the "divider," looking it all over for the bar code so she could
scan it. Not finding the bar code she said to me, "Do you
know how much this is?" I said to her "I've changed my mind, I don't
think I'll buy 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 credit card into her floppy
drive and pulling it out very quickly. When I inquired as to what she
was doing, she said she was shopping on the Internet and they
kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM
"thingy."

I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car.
Do you need some help?" I asked. She replied, "I knew 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 distant
convenience store) would have a battery to fit this?" "Hmmm, I
dunno. Do you have an alarm, too?" I asked."No, just this remote and
handed
the car keys to me. As I
took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, "Why
don't you drive over there and check about the batteries. It's a long
walk.

Several years ago, we had an Intern who was none too swift.
One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, "I'm
almost out of typing paper. What do I do?" "Just use copier
machine paper," the secretary told her. With that, the intern took
her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the
photocopier and proceeded to make five "blank" copies.

I was in a car dealership a while ago, when a large motor home
was towed into the garage. The front of the vehicle was in dire
need of repair and the whole thing generally looked like an
extra in "Twister." I asked the manager what had happened. He told
me that the driver had set the "cruise control" and then went
in the back to make a sandwich.

My neighbor works in the operations department in the central
office of a large bank. Employees in the field call him when they
have problems with their computers. One night he got a call
from a woman in one of the branch banks who had this question:
"I've got smoke coming from the back of my terminal. Do you
guys have a fire downtown?"

Police in Radnor, Pa., interrogated a suspect by placing a
metal colander on his head and connecting it with wires to a
photocopy machine. The message "He's lying" was placed in the
copier, and police pressed the copy button each time they
thought the suspect wasn't telling the truth. Believing the
"lie detector" was working, the suspect confessed.
"Life is tough. It's tougher if you're stupid."
