I've met them all this week!!
IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: I live in a semi-rural area. We recently
had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to
request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason:
"too many deer were being hit by cars" and he didn't want them to
cross there anymore.

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE: My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and
ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for
"minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.

IDIOT SIGHTING: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate
when an airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage
without your knowledge?" To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge,
how would I know?" He smiled knowingly and nodded, "That's why we ask."

IDIOT SIGHTING: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe
to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually
challenged coworker of mine when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was
for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red.
Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?!"

IDIOT SIGHTING: At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear
coworker who was leaving the company due to "downsizing," our manager
commented cheerfully, "this is fun. We should do this more often." Not a word
was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that
deer-in-the-headlights stare.

IDIOT SIGHTING: I work with an individual who plugged her power
strip back into itself and for the life of her couldn't understand why
her system would not turn on.

IDIOT SIGHTING: I arrived at an automobile
dealership to pick up my car, I was told the keys had been
locked in it. I went to the service department and found a mechanic
working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from
the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and
discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "it's
open!" To which he replied, "I know - I already got that side."
They walk among us..............scary
