I'm assured this is genuine.  You may know some of these people, you may even work with them. One of them may even have sent you this message.....


IDIOT SIGHTING #1
My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out window and I gave the assistant a Ł5 note. Our total was Ł4.20, so I also handed her a twenty pence
piece as well.

She said, 'you gave me too much money.'

I said,'Yes I know, but this way you can just give me Ł1 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 20 pence and said 'We're sorry but we
could not do that kind of thing.' The clerk then proceeded to give me back 80 pence in change..

Do not confuse the assistants at MacD's!

We had to have the garage door repaired. The GARADOR 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 GARADOR 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 and he said, 'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two..'

We haven't used Garador repair since.

I live in a semi rural area. We recently had a new neighbour call the Highways Department 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.'

IDIOT SIGHTING #4
My daughter went to a local Kentucky Fried Chicken and ordered. She asked the person behind the counter for 'minimal lettuce.' He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce....
   
IDIOT SIGHTING #5
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an Irish airport employee asked, 'Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?'

I replied, 'If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?'

He smiled knowingly and nodded, 'That's why we ask.'

Happened at Luton Airport ... UK

IDIOT SIGHTING #6
The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged co-worker of mine. She asked if I
knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals to blind people when the light is red.

Appalled, she responded, 'What on earth are blind people doing driving?!'

She is a Local County Council employee in Harrow, Middlesex , UK ....

When my husband and I arrived at our Local Ford dealer 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 driver's 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 fitter/mechanic, 'its open!'

His reply, 'I know. I already did that side.'

This was at the Ford dealership in St Albans,Hertfordshire UK .....

STAY ALERT! They walk among us... and the scary part is that is they have the RIGHT TO VOTE and REPRODUCE!

Ever noticed how most of the people end up in politics of one type or another?

The exceptionally gifted ones end up running the countries. What's that say about those who put them there?
 

"I have a place where dreams are born, And time is never planned. It’s not on any chart, You must find it with your heart."

Albert Einstein - "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe."

Martin Luther King Jr. - “Nothing in the world is more dangerous than a sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - “There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.”

Mark Twain - “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”
