How do these folks survive?

Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you
could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half
dozen nuggets.

"We don't have half dozen nuggets", said the teenager at the counter.

"You don't?" I replied. "We only have six, nine, or twelve," was the reply.

"So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?"

"That's right"

So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets.

The paragraph above doesn't amaze me because of what happened a couple
of months ago:

I was checking out at the local Foodland with just a few items and the
lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I picked up
one of those "Dividers" that they keep by the cash register and placed it
between our things so they wouldn't get mixed.

After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the "Divider"
looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it.Not finding the
bar code she said to me "Do you know how much this is?" and I said
to her "I've changed my mind, I don't think I'll buy that today".

She said "OK" and I paid her for the things and left.

She had no clue to what had just happened.....

A lady at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and
pulling it out very quickly. When inquired as to what she was doing,
she said she was shopping on the Internet and they kept asking for a credit
card number, so she was using the ATM "thingy".

I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car.

Do you need some help?" I asked. She replied, "I knew I should have
replaced the battery to this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get
into my car.Do you think they (pointing to a distant convenient store)
would have a battery to fit this?"

"Hmmm, I dunno. Do you have an alarm too?" I asked. "No, just
this remote thingy," she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I
took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, "Why don't you
drive over there and check about the batteries it's a long walk.

Several years ago, we had an intern who was none too swift.
One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, "I'm
almost out of typing paper. What do I do?"

"Just use copier machine paper," the secretary told her.

With that, the intern took her last remaining blank piece of paper,
put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five "blank" copies.

I was in a car dealership a while ago, when a large motor home was
towed into the garage. The front of the vehicle was in dire need of
repair and the whole thing generally looked like an extra in "Twister".

I asked the manager what had happened. He told me that the driver
had set the "cruise control" and then went in the back to make a
sandwich.

AGAIN I ASK YOU HOW DO THESE FOLKS SURVIVE?????
