    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.

    The paragraph above doesn't amaze me because of what
    happened a couple of months ago. I was checking out at
    the local Foodland 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.

    A lady at work was seen putting a credit card into her
    floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly. When
    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."

    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
    convenient store) would have a battery to fit this?"
    "Hmmm, I dunno. 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."

    Several years ago, we had an Intern who was none too
    swift. One day she was typing and turned to
    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 intern took her
    last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the
    photocopier and proceeded to make five "blank" copies.

    I was in a car dealership a while ago, when a large
    motor home was towed into the garage. The front of the
    vehicle was in dire need of repair and the whole thing
    generally looked like an extra in Twister."
    I asked the manager what had happened. He told me that
    the driver had set the "cruise control" and then went
    in the back to make a sandwich.

    IDIOTS &COMPUTERS...
    My neighbor 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?"

    Police in Radnor, Pennsylvania, 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.

    I got some of those in email a while back but they're still damn funny. I don't doubt that they're true stories at all.
