I hear that these are all 100% true. (I'm sure you all know one of these).

These people are kidding themselves.

 

"BOAJES" WORK...

I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when
the clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the
back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not
complete the transaction unless the card was signed. When
I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare
the signature on the credit card with the signature I just
signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front
of her. She carefully compared that signature to the one I
signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.

ADVICE FOR "BOAJES"

An actual tip from page 16 of the HP "Environmental,
Health & Safety Handbook for Employees: "Blink your
eyelids periodically to lubricate your eyes."

"BOAJES" IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor
call the local town administrative office to request the
removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason:
Many deer were being hit by cars and he no longer wanted
them to cross there.

"BOAJES" IN FOOD SERVICE

My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco.
She asked the individual behind the counter for "minimal
lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.

"BOAJ" SIGHTINGS Sighting #1:

The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it is safe to
cross the street.

I was crossing with an intellectually challenged co-worker
of mine, when he asked if I knew what the buzzer was for.
I explained that it signals to blind people when the light
is red. He responded, appalled, "What on earth are blind
people doing driving?"

Sighting #2:

I worked with an Individual who plugged his power strip
back into itself and for the life of him could not
understand why his system would not turn on.

Sighting #3:

When my wife and I arrived at an automobile dealership to
pick up our car, we were told that the keys had been
accidentally locked in it. We went to the service
department and found a mechanic working feverishly
to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the
passenger's side, I instinctively tried the door handle
and discovered it was open.

"Hey," I announced to the technician, "It's open!" "I know,"
answered the young man.- "I already got that side."
