    Default How do these people survive?

    Hope this is not a repost....I looked through 3-4 pages of posts based on a search....enjoy

    How do these people survive?
    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.

    TWO 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.

    THREE A lady 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 conven ience 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."

    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 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.

    SIX 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.

    SEVEN 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?"

    EIGHT Police in Radnor, Pa. , 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.

    NINE A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs
    to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid was eating ants. The
    dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and should be fine.
    The mother says, "I just gave him some ant killer....." Dispatcher:
    "Rush him in to emergency!"

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    WTF is wrong with these people? It makes me wonder if they weren't trying to be that stupid.

    That's why they specify in the manual that cruise control is not autopilot.
