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
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 said to me, "Do you know how
much this is?" and 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
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 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."
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, Pennsylvania,
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.
