how do these people survive?

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 Woolworths 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 as to what had just happened.

THREE
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!'

Life is tough. It's even tougher if you're clueless

I remember my Mom once

She had been trying to phone someone all day

but the number was engaged every time she rang, and the recorded BT message would say 'the number you are dialing is unavailable, please try again later'

Anyways, my Mom was telling me, I have tried and tried all day but it was always engaged,

I feel awfully embarrassed coz the lady must of been fed up of telling me the number was engaged and to try again later

I was wetting myself telling my mother it was a recorded message

lol!!!!

reminds me of my mum who had to fax details of my dads medical notes to his insurance company, she was getting really annoyed cos the machine was broken.....she rang the insurance company to apologise about the broken fax machine to be told they had received the documentation 12 times, my mum was most indignant as she said to the guy on the end of the phone " you cant possibly have it I still have it in my hand!!!!

I had to explain to her how a fax machine works!! she thought it would have taken the bit of paper and somehow transport it to the insurance company!! Poor mum has never lived that one down!!
