You know, I have a low tolerance for stupidity, and Bill Engvall is one of my favorite comedians. I know we all meet them, thought I would start a thread for the "Here's your Sign" moments in our lives.

Stopped in Pizza Hut last night. Walked in, young kid behind the register asked me if I was picking up a pizza.

I said no, and he asked do you want to order a pizza?:faint:

I look at him, thinking I didn't hear him right, and he is standing there with a look on his face that the last time I saw it was when a bird flew into my patio door, and had no idea as to what hit it.

Very calmly, I looked at him and said, "No, got some green pottery in the car, and my kiln is broke, can I use your oven for the next 24 hours?":lookaroun

Go easy on him. You might have been wanting to rob the place peacefully.

lol.

First night of blueprint reading was Monday. Instructor goes through the first unit, and tells us that the questions at the end will be answered off of the print labeled "Radius Gage", which is on the page after a print labeled "Milling Jack".

They are both clearly marked, and the heading for the assignment even says Radius Gage.

The first question is: What is the part name?

Somehow the guy next to me failed to comprehend this, and had to ask for help. Heeere's your sign.

Its been a very long time since I've been to Pizza Hut, but if I remember correctly they sell more than just pizza, correct?

Our VP picks up his office phone one day. Pages his Project Administrator's office. This is how the conversation goes.

VP: "Jason"
PA: "Yep?"
VP: "Are you here?"
PA: silence. . . . . . . . "Well I'm not sure Joe."
VP: "Well why the hell not. Either you are in the building or you aren't. So are you here?"
PA: "Well Joe you paged me on my office phone. I'll give you one guess if I'm still in the building or not."
VP: silence. . . . .(thought processing) "Shut the hell up and get in my office."

Yeah. Not one of his brighter moments. He honestly thought he had called the PA's cell phone.
