Just in case you haven't has a giggle today!

old but still funny!

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 - The paragraph above doesn't amaze me because of what happened a

couple of months ago. 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

convenience 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 , 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 worked as a temp admin assist. at a small office many years ago right before I started tinting windows. They hired a temp receptionist that was dumb as a box of rocks.

She ask me where to find more typing paper, I told her to just use the copier machine paper.......true story....she actually did #5! Made copies of a blank sheet of paper :thumb !

I almost died when they offered her a $1.00 more an hour to stay full time. I guess when you have a D cup and blonde hair it doesn't matter that your IQ is 12 and that you type 10 wpm :rollin .
