Stoopid People

[Captain Stubing]

I received this in an email, this is not my own work, I am simply sharing what I have received... :

ONE.

Recently I went to McDonald's and 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.


TWO.

I was checking out at the local Kmart 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 as to what had

just happened.


THREE. (I almost wiped this one…)

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."


FOUR.

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 central locking 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."


FIVE.

Several years ago, we had a junior 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 junior took her last remaining blank piece of
paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five "blank"
copies.


SIX.

My neighbour 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?"


SEVEN.

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

Thank God I never did that when I was a checkout chick.
The closest I ever came was a couple of times I moved the divider and just kept scanning the next person's items. :

But then again my store currently has no working aircon (company won't pay for a new system. Was 33 degrees in my office today), and when you work 9 hour shifts scanning groceries all day for people who become more rude and impatient as the day goes on, and you get more tired and your tollerance levels drop, you switch the brain off sometime just after you get told to go to lunch to conserve energy.

I flat out REFUSE to work on one now. :jab:

But I still feel sorry for checkout chicks, cause I know what a cruddy job it is.

Number 7 is a crack-up!!!

Most of those are hilarious, especially number five. But if I was there at the time, I would probably looking for a brick wall to bash my head against.

I few months ago at the local McDonald's, I was waiting in the line behind this guy who's trying to order a Medium double-cheeseburger meal ($5.75), but didn't want the drink... so he's saying to the girl at the counter "I'll pay for the meal, take the chips and the burger, but you can keep the drink," and the girl says, "I'm sorry sir, but you have to take the drink," so the guy starts to get really abusive, much use of the F-word etc. Manager comes out and tries to explain it'd be cheaper for him to just order a double cheeseburger ($3.25) and medium fries ($2.00 - totaling $5.25), but he wouldn't listen, kept on with the abuse etc, so they just charged him for the meal but didn't pour a drink. And while all this is happening, (it was at a train station) there's Transit Police, Chubb Security guys and two REAL police standing idly by, seemingly not paying attention to this guy going psycho at the maccas girl...

Much stupidity on all parts (I'd have just charged him $5.25 for chips and burger and been done with it)... though I can't help but laugh at his insistence to pay for the whole meal... :
