I have been a manager for McDonald’s for several years & have worked with some pretty stupid people. The best however, is Amanda in Dothan, AL. One day several years ago we had a small “blizzard”. We were very busy and understaffed. I had seated a customer who was waiting on a Big Breakfast (2 eggs, biscuit, sausage, & hash browns). When the order was complete I placed it on a tray & asked Amanda to carry it out for me. 5 minutes later I still had not seen her return from the lobby. I looked outside and she was actually out there knocking on windows looking for the customer. As if this were not stupid enough when I explained that I would have placed it into a bag if it was to go out to a car, She wanted to know if I thought she should put the hash brown (NOW COVERED IN SNOW) back into the vat for a minute before taking it out!!! Amanda was 16 I hope she’s a little smarter now!!!

I was working in a large Western National Park and a woman who was a notorious chain smoker came out of her office and lit up a cigarette. I said, “What are you up to?.” She took a long drag off of her cigarette and with smoke coming out of her mouth and nose said, “I just came out for a little fresh air”!

So, this chick that works in Tech Support with us, let’s call her Elaine, is doing training, and telling all the students what to do in case of a “one-zero” error. We pulled her aside to explain that that actually said I/O error (as in Input/Output) but she continued on with her teaching, explaining that it had to be a “one-zero” error, since computers communicate in binary code, so everything had to be either a 1 or a 0. I think its obvious who “1” and who is a “zero.” Duh!

A while ago I was received a call from a woman who said that Eudora Pro was showing her password. I found this to be strange, because when you type it in your password in Eudora, it displays asterisks. So when I went over to her office and looked at her desktop. She had renamed the Eudora Pro icon with her password.
