True life story.
Burger King used to have a 'Double Bacon Cheeseburger value meal' on their
menu that my wife sometimes orders. They took it off the menu and
replaced
it with a 'Double Cheeseburger value meal' several years ago, but she
continued ordering it and never had a problem. One day she ordered the
Double Bacon Cheeseburger meal and the guy behind the counter said they
don't have that anymore...we exchanged glances and without a beat she says
"Ok, I'll have the Double Cheeseburger value meal with bacon"....the clerk
rang it up without ever realizing what just happened....we still laugh
about
it.

After a company gets rid of all its bloated staff, this is what they will
have to choose from at their new Wal-Mart pay scales.
ONE
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 (Unbelievable but sadly
true...)
TWO
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.

A woman 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.'
(keep shuddering!!)
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 don't know. 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....'
PLEASE just lay down before you hurt yourself !!!
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 paper from the photocopier', 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.
Brunette, by the way!!
SIX
A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs to take
her kid to the emergency room, the kid had eaten ants. The dispatcher
tells
her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be fine, the mother says,
'I
just gave him some ant killer......'
Dispatcher: 'Rush him in to emergency!'
