Idiots.
IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: 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 were being hit by cars" and
he didn't want them to cross there anymore. This one
was from Kingman, KS.

IDIOTS 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 iceberg. And he was a
Kansas City chef!

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 Brimingham, 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 when
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 who was leaving the company due to
"downsizing," our manager commented cheerfully,
"this is fun. We should do this more often." Not a
word was spoken. We all just looked at each other
with that deer-in-the-headlights stare. This was a
bunch at Texas Instruments.

IDIOT SIGHTING: I work with an individual who plugged her
power strip back into itself and for the life of her
couldn't understand why her system would not turn
on. A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriff's 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 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 technician,
"it's open!" To which he replied, "I know - I
already got that side." This was at the Ford
dealership in Canton, Mississippi!
