people are MORONS!

[angryfan]

OK, bit of backstory. I'm sitting here working security with my buddy and fellow poster midcardmaniac. Today, we have a massive list of visitors coming to our building for a tour. Well, the first group just rolled in, and it was one guy with like five kids in tow. Problem being, dude apparently had no idea what any of their names actually were. He had one girl come to the counter, told me her name was Shamika to which she responded "no it isn't, its Doneequa" (her spelling, we doublechecked). He responded by looking at her and saying "no, tell him your REAL name". I, being an idiot apparnetly, didn't realize that children under the age of 10 were accustomed to having aliases, but apparently, it's all the rage. We also had Antiqua and a girl who's name contained TWO apostrophes (who the man told me was named something not even close to what she said).

Long story short, dude knew exactly ONE of the kids names he was bringing with him as part of a church group. Somehow, I managed to not bust out laughing but was told by my co-worker that, throughout, the look on my face was pretty much that of the WTF? monkey.

So, note to all, should you ever bring a group on a tour where checking in may be required, please, PLEASE, know the names of your group (especially if you're bringing apparently random children) ahead of time, or at least be somewhere in the ballpark.

There, I feel better now.

If you want grasp the full scope of human stupidity. Try working at a water park. I cant tell you how many times over the years I've had to reiterate the simplest of things that shoulda have been taught in kindergarden. Such ground breaking thought provoking things such as go when the light turns green. These arent just kids either but grown ass men and women.

Me: ok guys when the light turns green you can go
guest: sir the light is green does that mean I can go now??
Me: No I just said it 10 sec ago for my health
guest: so I can go now?

The human race is doomed!!!!!!

best ones i have had as a waiter/barman

me: choclate or vanilla ice cream?
customer: strawberry!

me: what would u like?
her: rum and coke
me:Bundy it is
her: no I said rum
me it is rum
her:no it isnt
me yes it is its called bundy rum!!
her:huh...oh ok

note: Bundy is probably the most famous rum here in Australia and the distillery is in this state (Queensland) in a town called bunderburg hence the name can it get anymore obvious???

I hate the old people at the grocery that wait untill all their items have been scanned and bagged before they start writing out their check. Who used checks anymore anyway?

So...wait, green means what now? Damn it, if I'd have known there was studying involved, I'd have stayed home and watched the picture radio.

I like when they do that, I'm a bagger and that makes me seem better at my job.

And the fact that it all pays the same on your timecard. What's the difference?

But if you're eating a banana it's the opposite....

Green means stop, yellow means go ahead, and red means where the f*** did you get that banana at?

[jmac950]

Yeah, you get a lot of stupid people when working at a grocery store too. Especially where I work, where it's more of a specialty foods/health store.

Green doesn't mean "go" it means proceed with caution.

You're right. People are morons. Only a moron would name someone "Doneequa".

NOt a problem at all. The one I mentioned with the apostrophes, it nearly killed me. I did everything I could not to laugh, since she was just a kid, and it's not her fault her parents are stupid, but damn it all. I ask for spelling and she gives me Jah'Na'i, a spelling which is confirmed by her older sister. I ask, naturally, and in the same voice I used when my neices were very little "that's a very nice name, how do you pronounce it?" since, frankly, I was stumped. Her respnse? Natasha. I swear, I developed a tick for like three seconds, could not speak, and finally got out "oh, that's...neat".

I managed to hold in the (slightly to loud) what the F*** is WRONG with people?" until after I heard the elevator doors close down the hall, which I'm kinda proud of.

Far as traffic lights go, I thought it was green is go, yellow is go faster, and red is "I hope somebody's paying attention, because I've got somewhere to be".

You also realise that people are idiots when you work in retail.

Customer: I want 20 Richmond ("I want" really annoys me but that's another topic)
Me: Kingsize or Superkings??
Customer: Please

Why don't people listen...or have sense??

Hey! I'm a people.
