I got this in an email and thought it was worth posting…. I can be a bit naive at times, but come on! Some of these are just ridiculous.

IDIOT AT SEARS: We had to have the garage door repaired, and 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: 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 .

IDIOTS 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. He was a Chef?
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 its 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 bunch at Texas Instruments.

IDIOT SIGHTING: I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back
into itself and for the sake of her own 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 !

STAY ALERT! They walk among us … And they DO REPRODUCE!
