They Walk Among Us in Retail
I was at the checkout of a K-Mart. The clerk rang up $46.64 charge.. I
gave her a fifty dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I gave the money
back to her and told her that she had made a mistake in MY favor. She
became indignant and informed me she was educated and knew what she was
doing, and returned the money again. I gave her the money back. Same
scenario! I departed the store with the $46.64.
They Walk Among Us at Starbucks....
I walked into a Starbucks with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a Grande
Latte. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard
that said 'buy one-get one free.' 'They're already buy-one-
get-one-free,' she said, 'so I guess they're both free'. She handed me my
free Lattes and I walked out the door.
They Walk Among Us at the beach....
One day I was walking down the beach with some Friends when one of them
shouted, 'Look at that dead bird!' Someone looked up at the sky and said,
'Where?'
They Walk Among Us in Real Estate
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which
direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking
him up every morning. She asked, 'Does the sun rise in the North?' When
my brother explained that the sun rises in the East, and has for
sometime, she shook her head and said, 'Oh I don't keep up with all that
stuff.'
They Walk Among Us in Tech support
I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got
a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open.
I told him, 'The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week.' He responded, 'Is that Eastern or Pacific time?' Wanting to end
the call quickly, I said, 'Uh, Pacific..'
They Walk Among Us as relatives....
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a seat
belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk.
They Walk Among Us at the Airport
I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the
lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed
up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained
professional and I was in good hands. 'Now,' she asked me, has your plane
arrived yet?'
They Walk Among Us at the Pizza Parlor
While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza
to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it
cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before
responding. 'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough
to eat 6 pieces.'
