All good things must come to an end... so too does this. It saddens me to say that this is the last of my 'Idiot Sighting' posts. I appreciate all who contributed to their content (both first hand and as a third party):
Idiot Sighting:
I was at a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker. She was
leaving the company due to downsizing. Our manager commented
cheerfully, "This is fun; we should do this more often" not another word
was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that
deer-in-the-headlights stare.
This was a lunch at Texas Instruments.
Idiot Sighting:
I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself
and for the sake of her life, could not understand why her system would
not turn on.
She is a deputy with the Dallas County Sheriffs office, no less.
Idiot Sighting:
When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our
car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the
service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the
drivers' 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!"
His reply, "I know, I already got that side."
This was at the Ford dealership in Canton , Mississippi
Until next time, I present these examples of why I say a man (or woman) should never be judged by how much they make. J/W
