National Idiot's Day

These will make you wonder about our future generations.

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. "We only
have
six, nine, or twelve." "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.



The paragraph above doesn't amaze me because of what happened a couple of
months
ago. I was checking out at the local Foodland 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 asked 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 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 un-locker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they
(pointing
to a distant convenient 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 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.

CONCLUSION: Life is tough. It's tougher if you're stupid

It's similar to when I was in a bar in Tucson and asked for a vod. martini, xtra xtra dry. The bartender gaped at me and asked what a martini was... I said: "Do you have vodka?" Makes one wonder...
