    Be Careful Out There:
    IDIOT SIGHTING:
    We had to have the garage door repaired. 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. H e 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.

    My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out window and I gave
    the clerk a $5 bill. Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her a
    quarter. She said, "you gave me too much money." I said, "Yes I know,
    but this way you can just give me a dollar bill 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 quarter, and said "We're sorry but they could not
    do that kind of thing." The clerk then proceeded to give me back $1 and
    75 cents in change.

    Do not confuse the clerks at McD's.

    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.

    IDIOT SIGHTING 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 iceburg lettuce.

    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 it's 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 lunch at Texas Instruments.


    IDIOT SIGHTING :
    I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself
    and for the sake of her life, couldn't understan d 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
