IDIOT SIGHTING #1
My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out window and I gave
the clerk a £5 note. Our total was £4.20, so I also handed her a twenty
pence piece.
She said, 'you gave me too much money.'
I said,'Yes I know, but this way you can just give me £1 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 don't do that kind of thing.'
The clerk then proceeded to give me back 80 pence in change.

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, 'NO, it's not.
Four is larger than two..'
We haven't used Garador repair since. Happened in Moor Park , Nr Watford, UK

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.'Story from Potters

the person behind the counter for 'minimal lettuce.'

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?'
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 Luton

The stoplight on the corner beeps 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 beeping 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 is a Local County Councillor employee in Harrow, Middlesex

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 .
