Recently, I when to McDonald's and 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

(Must have been the same one I asked for sweetener and she said they didn't have any, only Splenda and sugar.)

(And they think they are worth $15.00 per hour)

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.

(But the lady behind me had a big smirk on her face as I left)

A woman at work was seen putting a credit card into her DVD 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.

(Keep shuddering!!)

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 convenience store) would have a battery to fit this?'

Hmm, I don't know. 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....'

PLEASE just lay down before you hurt yourself !!!

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 paper from the photocopier', 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.

Brunette, by the way!!

A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid had eaten ants.

The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be fine, the mother says, 'I just gave him some ant killer......'

Dispatcher: 'Rush him in to emergency right now!'

Life is tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid!!!!

And remember, never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night!

Don't laugh....it is all true...
 
Although these are funny and sad at the same time I wonder if there is a real story for each.

That being said I did witness #4 version. A woman used her remote key fob on her pick-up on the driver's side. It didn't unlock. So she walked around to the passenger's side and opened the door and got in and slid over to the driver's seat.

Now, maybe, maybe there might have been a problem with the driver's side lock but when I see a key hole there begging to be utilized I just wonder.
 
I can assure you numbers 1, 4 and 5 are very much real. I'd say 6 is the biggest reach followed by 2. Number 3? I can't say I haven't met a few people completely capable of such an act.
 
Real or not, I'm not gonna question #3. Roughly 18 years in IT and I've seen some seriously stupid shit done by people who shouldn't be allowed near a computer.
 
I had one secretary (a long time ago) that thought the CD player tray in the computer was a cup-holder.
 
My discs are hard...:rolleyes::p

The time-frame of the cup-holder/CD tray was circa 1990.
 
Not surprising. Government worker, right? :p
No such thing my friend, that's an oxymoron. We're Government employees!

p.s. Used to piss my wife off every time I'd tell her that. Since becoming one myself (again), she's now quick to remind me I can't say that anymore. The HELL I can't!!! LOL
 
We had a lady bring her system to our computer store asking us to fix he cup holder. ( CD tray)

We had a lady who thought the mouse was a foot pedal and the best one was the fax modem wasn't working. She was holding the document she wanted to fax on the CRT.

All true!
