IDIOTS AT WORK...
   
   I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk
   noticed that I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card.
   She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the
   card was signed.
   
   When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the
   signature on the credit card with the signature I just signed on the
   receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully
   compared that signature to the one I signed on the receipt. As luck
   would have it, they matched.
   
   
   IDIOTS IN  THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
   
   I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbour call the
   local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer
   Crossing sign  on our road. The reason: Many deer were being hit by
   cars and he no longer wanted them to cross there.
   
   
   IDIOT SIGHTINGS Sighting #1:
   
   I was at the airport, checking in at the gate, when the airport
   employee asked, 'Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your
   knowledge?"
   
   I said,  "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?"
   
   He smiled and nodded knowingly, 'That's why we ask."
   
   
   Idiot  Sighting #2:
   
   The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it is safe to cross the street.
   I was crossing with an
   intellectually challenged co-worker of mine, when she asked if I knew
   what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals to blind people
   when the light is red. She responded, appalled, 'What on earth are
   blind people doing driving?"
   
   
   Idiot Sighting #3:
   
    At a goodbye lunch for an old and dear co-worker who is leaving the
   company due to 'downswing," our manager spoke up and said, "this is
   fun. We should have lunch like this more often." Not another word  was
   spoken. We just looked at each other like deer  staring into the
   headlights of an approaching  truck.
   
   
   Idiot Sighting #4:
   
    When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up
   our car, we were told that the keys had been accidentally 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's side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered
   it was open. 'Hey," I announced to the technician,  "It's open!"
   "I  know," answered the young man. "I already got that side."
