I know these are true because they happened to me.

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE:
At the local KFC, I ordered a box of french fries. I did this because I had
gotten a box of fried before. The counter help told me they didn't sell
french fries by the box, so I ordered three regular sized servings where
upon they took a 2 piece dinner box, lined it with paper, put the three
orders in the box. I picked up the box and ask, "Isn't this a box of
fries?", they didn't have a reply.
On night, my wife and I stopped a coffee shop, we checked the case prior to
setting down. The waitress came to take our order. Linda ordered coffee
and a roll, I ordered coffee and six doughnut holes. The reply, "We don't
have doughnut holes." I got up, walked to the case, pointed to them and ask
what are these, "Oh! there 'Munchies'", I said "Oh, and where do 'Munchies'
come from?" Another deafening silence.
IDIOTS AT THE POST OFFICE:
I sent a QSL to Pitcarn Island, M Wilson, PO Box 79, Pitcarn Is, Via New
Zealand. It was returned with the notation, address needs City, State and
Zip Code. This happened three more times, but this was the first. The
second time, I took the QSL in and the guy at the counter said, " I've never
seen that happen before." I assured him, it had. Three days later I proved
it to him. The fourth time was uneventful.
I received my local Radio Club news letter and a QSL from Spain on the same
day, they were both postmarked eight days prior. When I asked for an
explanation at the post office the response was, "That pretty good service
from Spain!" The newsletter arrived the day after our monthly meeting. One
more time, deafening silence, MINE, hard to argue with logic like that!
