Must read.... I borrowed this from a friends post..

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

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 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.'

(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 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 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 away'

Life is tough. It's even tougher if you're Stupid!!!!
Someone had to remind me, so I'm reminding you too.
Don't laugh....it is all true...
 
That last one's a killer.

We had a receptionist that complained about how expensive it was going to be to put new 15" tires on her 89 cavalier. A week later she shows up in a used 1990 camaro and explains how smart she was because for the cost of the tires, she instead used that money for a down payment on the camaro (not noticing that it was about to need new 17" tires)!!
 
So I had a mental problem with the local Taco Bell, but I finally relented, as I was kinda "Taco Hungry. So they don't "have" sugar. Real sugar. Not that pink crap. Not that yellow ****. Real sugar for my iced tea.

So I ordered a coke, the tacos, and left.


So a few days ago, I decided to find out one last time if this was a fluke, or status quo. So I ask "sugar?" "No we don't have sugar." I should have just left

So I order 4 tacos and a big coke.

Go up to the window, the jerk is hanging my coke out over the ledge at me and I'm trynnnna push it back with both hands yelling NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Wazzza mattah wrong drink?"

"NO you're POURING **** ALL OVER ME AND MY CAR!!!!!"

So he mumbles something about "must not've been made good," sets it down on the ledge and TURNS AROUND AND WALKED OFF

So some little thing finally comes over and wants to know "did I get my order" and finally made me a new coke and etc etc etc

Now I'm flat TELLIN' you that in about a week IF I ever get cooled off, I'm goin' back over there and give that manager a big fat piece of my mind!!!!

You waited too long, that "jerk" is now the manager.
 
It just amazes me that people working cash registers can't count back change.

Very true.

I was at Walmart two weeks ago. My bill came to $60.03, so I handed the cashier a $100 bill and a single so I could get $40 back and some change (97¢). She got all confused. I told her that I should get back $40.97. She ended up giving me $39.98 back after I went over this with her three times. I even told her to put in 1-0-1-.-0-0 for the amount. I asked for a manager and explained it to her and gave her the change and the receipt. The manager corrected it and gave me the correct change.

The cashier put in 100.01 for what I had given her. It's amazing that she didn't know the difference between one hundred and one dollars and one hundred dollars and one cent....

Duh....
 
I went to a hospital cafeteria and my wife and I got some lunch. The cashier said the register was not working. So she asked us how much we owed? Being an honest person I told her $14.60 All I had was a 50 which totally confused her after just looking at the money she ask how much change we were supposed to get. I told her $48. she handed me $48 and I almost lost it.. I asked her why she was on the register and she said I dont no why we arent closed because it is not working anyway... I did give the money back and she was real red in the face. And felt a stupid as they come. She was Blonde too. I dont know how you can survive in this world being that stupid...Bill
 
most chain stores of any kind dont want their employees to count back change. i worked at a "fastfood" auto parts chain. we were told to only give back what the puter said.. dont think is the mantra for big corp...
 
I am occasionally surprised by some young folk someplace or another who knows how to count back change. I ALWAYS compliment them.
 
Just and FYI, coins and money counting really is not taught anymore in schools. I used to get grief when I did money with my special kids. I finally said that they need this skill more than knowing if a shape is congruent. They were pretty good at it and I hope some may use that skill at work in the future.
 
There's a lightning bug spying on me through my window right now!

Kudos to you for teaching them. To me that should be mandatory in every school world wide.
 
What gets me is when the total is say $18.12. So you hand them $20.12 to keep from getting a pocket full of change, and it just throws them a curve.
 
this happened to me when i went into taco bell and ordered a dozen tacos. the counter person had no idea how many that was, duh. so to keep things so he could understand i just ordered 12 instead, duh. i often wonder if he ever understood how many a dozen is?
