THEY WALK AMONG US

I was at the checkout of a Kmart. The clerk rang up $46.64
charge. I gave her a fifty dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I
gave it back to her and told her that she had made a mistake in MY favor
and gave her the money back. She became indignant and informed me she
was educated and knew what she was doing and returned the money
again. I gave her the money back again... same scenario! I departed the
store with the $46.64.

This happened in Austin at MoPac Blvd and Parmer Lane

They Walk Among Us and Many Work Retail.


I walked into a Mickey D's with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon
For a sandwich. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little
Chalkboard that said "buy one-get one free." "They're already buy-one-
get-one-free", she said, "so I guess they're both free" She handed me my
free sandwiches and I walked out the door.

They Walk Among Us and Many Work Retail.

===================

One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when one
Of them shouted, "Look at that dead bird!" Someone looked up at the
Sky and said, "Where?"

They Walk Among Us!

===================

While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which
direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking
him up every morning. She asked, "Does the sun rise in the north?"
When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for
sometime, she shook her head and said, "Oh I don't keep up with that stuff."

They Walk Among Us!!

===================

I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I
got a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I
told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week"
He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting to end the call
quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific."



They Walk Among Us!

===================

My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a
Seat belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk.

They Walk Among Us!

===================

My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were
discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The
cashier multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount.

They Walk Among Us!

===================

I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went
To the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags
Never showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a
Trained professional and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me, has
your plane arrived yet?"

They Walk Among Us!

===================

While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small
pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he
would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time
before responding. "Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry
enough to eat 6 pieces."

Yep, They Walk Among Us!

===================

They Walk Among Us, AND they Reproduce, and Worst of All>
They VOTE.

rolleyes.gif I have encountered them being in retail as well. The bookstore worked at had a reward card you could buy for $25 - I agree, not something I would need in my wallet but one day, but one day a man comes in and buys several hundred dollars of books. I suggest that he buy the $25 card because I could apply it that sale and it would save him something like $48. He looked at me and said "Oh, I'd never use it."

I just couldn't get him to see that spending $25 would save him nearly $50.

IDIOT SIGHTINGS:
We had to have the garage door repaired. The Sears repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a "large" enough motor on the opener. I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest one Sears made at that time a 1/2 horsepower. He shook his head and said, "Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower." I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4. He said, "NO, it's not." Four is larger than two." We haven't used Sears repair since.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I live in a semi rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the DEER CROSSING sign on our road. The reason: "Too many deer are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore." From Kingman , KS
>
IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE:
My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce. He was a Chef? Yep...
From Kansas City ! Note: I don't think they call those people preparing fast food "Chef's".

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?" He smiled knowingly and nodded, "That's why we ask." Happened in Birmingham , Ala.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine. She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?!" She was a probation officer in Wichita , KS
>
IDIOT SIGHTING:
At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker; she was leaving the company due to "downsizing." Our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this more often." Not another word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights stare. This was a lunch at Texas Instruments

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the sake of her life, couldn't understand why her system would not turn on. A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriffs office, no less.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "its open!" His reply, "I know. I already got that side." This was at the Ford dealership in Canton , Mississippi !

STAY alert! They walk among us... and they can breed
