I work as a tour guide at a Museum, and give interactive tours all day. I have guests that come up and ask me some of the stupidest questions. For example, we have an ENTRANCE sign right by the front of where the tour starts. Guests will ask "Where's the entrance?" Gee, maybe where the entrance sign is? They also ask things like "Where's the bathroom?" when there are signs that clearly say BATHROOMS right in front of them! So last week, a family of four come up to me and ask "Where's the entrance for this tour?" Mind you, Im standing Right in front of the entrance, with the Sign saying ENTER HERE next to me. So I replied "Right where it says entrance you morons!" I said it sort of irratated, but still trying to smile. The lady reported me for rudeness, and I was fired later that day. Even though I told my story and claimed they should have known where the entrance was. Why was I fired for simply putting these idiots in their place?
