Some dumb but true stories

People getting dumber or just the education system getting dumberd down???? Messages from my e-mail

The paragraph above doesn't amaze me because of what happened acouple of months ago. I was checking out at the
local Foodland 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 asked me "Do you know how much this is?", and 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 what had just happened.....

A lady 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".

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 un-locker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a
distant convenient store) would have a battery to fit this?" "Hmmm, I dunno. 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."

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 copier
machine paper," 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

Police in Radnor, Pennsylvania, interrogated a suspect by placing a metal colander on his head and connecting it with wires
to a photocopy machine. The message "He's lying" was placed in the copier, and police pressed the copy button each time they thought the suspect wasn't telling the truth.
Believing the "lie detector" was working, the suspect confessed.

CONCLUSION: Life is tough...... It's tougher if you're stupid.
