I
was at the checkout of a Kmart. The clerk rang up $46.64 charge. I
gave her a fifty dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I gave it
back to her and told her that she had made a mistake in MY favor and gave her
the money back. She became indignant and informed me she was educated and knew
what she was doing and returned the money again. I gave her the money back
again... same senario! I departed the store with the
$46.64.
I walked into a Mickey D 's with a buy-one-get- one-free coupon For a sandwich.
I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little Chalkboard that said
"buy one-get one free." "They're already buy-one-
get-one-free" , she said, "so I guess they're both free" She
handed me my free sandwiches and I walked out the door.
One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when one Of them
shouted, "Look at that dead bird!" Someone looked up at the Sky
and said, "Where?"
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent
which direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun
waking him up every morning. She asked, "Does the sun rise in the
north?" When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has
for sometime, she shook her head and said, "Oh I don't keep up with that
stuff."
I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got
a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open.
I told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week." He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting
to end the call quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific."
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a Seat
belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk.
My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases
were discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The
cashier multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount.
I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the lost
luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She
smiled and told me not to worry because she was a Trained professional and
I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me, has your plane arrived
yet?"
While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go.
He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4
pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. "Just
cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces."

I have committed faux pas myself Guido. Just recently I was in the PO wanting to have my overseas mail stamped. The normally friendly and jokey man behind the counter rolled his eyes after he told me to put my card on the scales. I looked and saw I had placed them all on there at the same time. He and I are getting that Christmas spaced out syndrome. Lol!
