Daughter to waitress in hotel restaurant " I'll have the fish please. May I have it off the bone?"

Waitress" Why, madam?"

Daughter "If you'd be so kind, I'll like it off the bone, please"

Waitress " But if we do that, it will be smaller"

What's your candidate for stupidest rely from an official or an employee of a company?

Not so much a reply as a question...

Few years ago round about Christmas time a customer pointed at the fresh turkeys on the shelf at work..

Her: Are those happy turkeys?
Me:, not any more no, they're dead.

Rang landlord to report that fire alarm system was not going off and not sure if an electric fault so to send someone out - might be a fire but no sign of it yet. Cant stop alarms and deafening. Its 5am ish.

Woman on the out of hours line - I'll send a joiner!
I ask Why? - I just do what I'm told and it says here to send a joiner to a fire.
A joiner to a alarm system or possible fire - that doesn't sound right ?
Answer - Do you want me to send the joiner or not?
Cant you send anyone else?
No - thats it - we send joiners to fires.

Talk about living dangerously..
Joiner turns up (with tools) an hour later asking if he needs to remove any doors?

It is not just the British of course:

My phone in France stopped working, so I went to the telephone company's shop to report the fault:

"Madame, my phone does not work at all"

Madame "Well, monsieur, what you must do is go home and ring this number"

I studied in Wales and at xmas I would travel to Ireland by ferry via Fishguard (to Rosslare) and get this really old train to Limerick as family in Co Clare. Very long journey.

Anyway the weather was -80 degrees (not exaggerating!) this xmas. The train used to take hours as it stopped everywhere and was always freezing.

On the train about an hour when the ticket chap came through the train in a complete panic shouting (like there's an emergency). ..

"Would everybody please put their legs on the seats - NOW.. I repeat NOOW... I haven't time to be going up and down this train telling people every single time" We looked at eachother (gun symbols to our heads)...like Bonkers! but anything for a quiet life....we all did it.

He was going so fast passengers couldn't get to ask him anything. We had noticed the train get abit warmer though.

Then ...wiping the sweat off his brow he comes walking back down the train muttering .. "Thank Jea....ssus thats over" (excuse Irish).

We asked him - Why are you telling us to put our legs on the seats?

Ah sur...theres hundreds of them f .. k i n (excuse french) mice nesting in them seats and the minute we put the heating on...
