Hope you guys enjoy!

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 h e handed me back the quarter, and said Were sorry but they could
not do that kind o f thing." The cler k 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 si gn on our road. The reason: "Too many deer are being hit by
c ars 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. Sh e asked
the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was
sorry, but they only had iceburg 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
woul d 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 Wichita , 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 mec hanic w orking feverishly to unlock
the drivers side door. As I watched from the passenger sid e, 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

STAY ALERT!

They walk among us... and the scary part is that they VOTE and
REPRODUCE and our enemies know it!!!

my mom is a very smart woman but has what you would call brain farts every so often. she called me after getting a new car and told me she couldn't figure out how to adjust the clock.

i asked her if there were any buttons on it. she said there were two but she didn't know what they were. i asked her what the buttons were marked, she said h and m.

i said "mom, i am pretty sure h and m mean hour and minute"

she screamed "oh my god" in the most embarrassed sounding voice i have ever heard.

to this day i still give her grief about that.

sorry about the lack of capital letters, shift key is broken on the left.

^ use the right....

See, I type like a normal human being at home and use both hands. No peck and poke here my friend. Using the right shift key would seriously cramp my style.
