Wanna hear a funny story

[EvianBaby]

Bit boring here today.

In the week one of the bosses asked one of the lads to go to screw fix. Among the bits he needed he also asked him to get a glass hammer and a long weight.

It didn't click with the lad (or the staff seemingly) so he called while he was there to ask for a product code. Boss told him to write down 1-ama-mug.

Apparantly it took another few minutes before one of the staff noticed and said I think you've been had. Ha!

Well, it made me laugh anyway.

I asked a young man in B N Q recently to point me in the direction of ant killer. He duly obliged and went off to look for the Napalm I had asked him if they stocked. A few minutes later he returned and quite innocently told me they didn't stock that brand and I'd have to make do with their own brand or Nippon!

Friend at collage asked me to suggest a password for his folder.

I said Penis - as I knew what would happen.

He put it into the computer to be told password not long enough. Lol !

A girl fresh out of school was given a job in the Wines and Spirits dpt of a large department store near me. On her first day a customer asked for a bottle of dry sherry. The girl disappeared into the back, returning 5 minutes later to say, "I'm sorry, madam, but we only stock the wet kind".

I remember a young lad being sent for a tin of tartan paint and a 12 inch sky hook!

When I was at school a friend and I came up with the idea of selling dehydrated water in the playground. Just add water! Ideal for camping trips!A few kids did actually fall for it, but a teacher found out and made us give the money back.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who was asked to tannoy Mike Hunt when new in my job! I was so gullible I did it.

Someone was once asked to telephone a certain number and ask for Mr C Lyon. Turned out it was Edinburgh Zoo. They must have had this one hundreds of times.
