End of the year "Smiles" for all

End of the year "Smiles" for all

This year has been a very interesting year. Been tough for some and great for others.  I thought it was best to let this year end with a smile. Hope you enjoyed it and end the year well. 

So merry X-Mas every one and Happy New year in advance.

Just something to make everyone smile - Some interesting titbits I have had happen to me over the years.

Years ago, when I used to eat meat, My son, Aakash and I went through the McDonald's driveway window and I gave the cashier a $5 bill.
Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her 25c.
She said, 'you gave me too much money.'
I said, 'Yes I know, but this way you can just give me a dollar coin back.'
She sighed and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat my request.
I did so, and he handed me back the 25c, and said 'We're sorry but we don’t do that kind of thing.'
The cashier then proceeded to give me back 75 cents in change.
Do not confuse the people at MacD's.

We had to have the garbage disposal repaired.
The repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a 'large' enough motor.
I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest it comes with, a 1/2 horsepower.
He shook his head and said, 'You need a 1/4 horsepower.'
I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, 'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two.'
We haven't used that repairman since...

A friend of mine lives in a semi rural area.
He recently had a new neighbor who called their local city council office to request the removal of the DEAR CROSSING sign on our road.
The reason: 'Too many dears are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.'

IDIOT SIGHTING IN FOOD SERVICE.
One of my friends daughter went to a Mexican fast food and ordered a taco.
She asked the person behind the counter for 'minimal lettuce.'
He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce.

So how about the airport?
On my way to Shanghai, 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.'

Now this is even more interesting, I was consulting with a company some time back and it happened there:
The pedestrian light on the corner beeps when it's safe to cross the street.
I was crossing with an co-worker of mine.
She asked if I knew what the beeper 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?!'

About a year back I arrived at a car repair shop to pick up our car after a service, 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, 'its open!'
His reply, 'I know. I already did that side.'

STAY ALERT!
They walk among us, they breed, and they vote…....
You now have 2 options...
Delete it…..
or
Send it along to put a smile on someone's face today!.
HAHAHAHAHAHA

Remember when you could say anything you wanted and were protected by freedom of speech. Some one found a way to silence you, its called PC.

People in this country do behave as if ignorance and stupidity were virtues. Thanks to "political correctness" and a common core education, it will only get worse.
