I went to McDonalds. I looked at the menu and saw that you could have an
order of 6,9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half-dozen nuggets.
'We
don't have a 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.
MAKES YOU WONDER HOW
THESE PEOPLE CAN SURVIVE!!

A lady at work was seen putting a
credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly. When inquired
as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on the internet and they
asked for a credit card number, so she's using the ATM 'thingy'.

I recently saw a distraught young lady
beside her car weeping. '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 thing they (pointing to a distant convenient
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 ckeck about the batteries? It's a long walk.'

Several years ago, we had an intern who
was none too swift. One day he 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 him. With that, the intern took his last remaining blank
piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five 'blank'
copies.

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.

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?'

I was sitting in my science class, when
the teacher commented that the next day would be the shortest day of the year.
My lab partner became visibly excited, cheering and clapping. I explained to him
that the amount of daylight changes, not the actual amount of time. Needless to
say, he was very disappointed.

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.
