    Default Idiots at Work


    IDIOTS IN SERVICE:

    This week, all our office phones went dead and I had to contact the telephone repair people. They promised to be out between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time window, the pleasant gentleman asked, "Would you like us to call you before we come?" I replied that I didn't see how he would be able to do that, since our phones weren't working. He also requested that we report future outages by email.
    Does YOUR email work without a telephone line?

    IDIOTS AT WORK:
    I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed I had not signed my name on the back of the credit card.
    She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed.
    When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature I had just signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared the signature to the one I had just signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.

    IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
    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 were being hit by cars and he didn't want them to cross there anymore.

    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.

    IDIOT SIGHTING #1:
    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."

    IDIOT SIGHTING #2:
    The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectectually-challenged coworker of mine when 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?!

    IDIOT SIGHTING #3:
    At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker who was leaving the company due to "downsizing," our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this more often."
    Not a word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights stare.

    IDIOT SIGHTING #4:
    I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the life of her couldn't understand why her system would not turn on.

    IDIOT SIGHTING #5:
    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, Iinstinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "It's open!
    To which he replied, "I know - I already got that side."

    NOW DON'T YOU FEEL BETTER?
