IDIOT SIGHTING :
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

My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out window and I gave the
clerk a $5 bill. Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her a quarter. She
said, "you gave me too much money." I said, "Yes I know, but this way you can
just give me a dollar bill back." She sighed and went to get the manager who
asked me to repeat my request. I did so, and he handed me back the quarter, and
said "We're sorry but they could not do that kind of thing." The clerk then proceeded to give me back $1 and 75 cents in change.

Do not confuse the clerks at McD's.



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




IDIOT SIGHTING 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.
From Kansas City




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 Wichit a , 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 drivers 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
