Sometimes Life is Tough

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 dozennuggets.
'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 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 Walmart 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'
(keep shuddering!!)


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 andmanually unlocked the door, I replied, 'Why don't you drive over there and check about the batteries. It's a long walk...'
PLEASE just lay down before you hurt yourself!!!



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!!!!

How do these people survive?

they don't.......they exist !
Other people have not choice but to pull them from the flames.
Back in the early eighties I used to work at Wally World. ( yes I admit it) I was Working in Sporting Goods. You know they normally had the Brown vest. (opposed to the blue ones) As I was standing in front of the Counter (with a big Sporting Goods Logo Over it) not to mention my brown vest which also said sporting goods on it. A lady comes down the isle, past the fishing poles, past the shotgun and rifle shells straight up to me and ask "Where is Sporting Goods?" I asked here what it was she was looking for I might could help. In a nasty tone she said "I'M LOOKING FOR SPORTING GOODS." Seeing she didnt want my help finding anything. I sent her all the way across the to the other side of the store ( fabrics) telling her it was next to Fabrics. I could barely contain myself as of she walked all the way back over to the other side of the store.

I used to work in a stationery store. One day a lady came in looking for black white-out. After explaining there was no such thing, I suggested using a black marker. She said "no, i need the brush to make sure it's smooth". I walked away.
Sometimes that make normal people have susidal thoughts.
