Here Is The Proof - You Don't Know The Maddest People ... But They Exixt!

[debris4spike]

I thought that I mad met some weird people over the years, but someone e-mailed me this yesterday ... so thought I would share it with you all.


The Madness That Is People -

ONE

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
(Unbelievable but sadly true...)




TWO

I was checking out at the local Woolworths 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.

THREE

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.'

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 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....'

FIVE

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.

SIX

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!'


 

Life is tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid!!!!

bwahaha...I know what Avon would say but that wouldn't be nice.

[debris4spike]

LOL - Thanks for that thought!

[blackoberst.livejournal.com]

Great Scott! I hope I never meet such people in real life (although I have, sadly)

[debris4spike]

It is worrying how many people are like this!

[mountainheather.livejournal.com]

Ha. Those are great. So would happen too.

[debris4spike]

I think that is the really worrying thing about it!

Sadly, I have met people this stupid in real life. I worked for a large retail discount chain. We had a monthly ad, but if a local competitor had a lower price we would lower our prices as well. Woman came to me and complained that a product was cheaper on the shelf than in the ad. I tried to explain to her we checked prices close to us and would lower the prices to out do the other competitors. She was angry our shelf price was cheaper than the national ad price. Go figure??!!!

Sometimes I do believe that Alternative Universes must exist, and that somehow I have fallen through a rift!

I recently confused the young girl at a donut shop by ordering half a dozen donuts,after giving me a blank look she had to check with a co-worker " does that mean six".

[debris4spike]

HI - *waves*

It is really scary that we actually do meet these people .... Am putting on coat to have one of the doughnuts!!

[plantassassin.livejournal.com]

OH_MY_GOSH!

[debris4spike]

Scary, isn't it?

[cordykitten]

A very sad thought that people are so dumb - but very silly, thanks for sharing!
Mind if I snag again for another post?

[debris4spike]

Scary - *g*

Yes, do snag!

Thank for posting those - sooo funny. I was in a shop once and the bill came to fourteen pounds and twenty pence. I gave fifteen in notes and a twenty pence piece. The girl tried to make me take the twenty pence back as she had rung up that I gave fifteen on the till and she didn't know what change to give me if she took the twenty.

When I said it's a pound she stared at me for a good two minutes before giving it to me - I still think she hadn't worked it out! LOL

[debris4spike]

Mmmm - know what you mean.

It is really scary at the amount of people you meet like this!

[kaczurda.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, it's almost hard to believe those are true!

[debris4spike]

That's what makes it so scary!!
