Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets.
"We don't have half dozen nuggets," said the
teenager at the counter. "You don't?" I replied. "We only have six, nine, or twelve," was the reply. "So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?" "That's right." So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets

Just as pathetic as when you pay for something and offer the assistant the change i.e "£2.16" and you give them a fiver and 16p - it confuses the hell out of them and they actually have to type in "£5.16" to work out your change........or worse its too confusing for them and they just give you the change from your fiver.....

That is truly sad. Unfortunately, the poor little darling probably doesn't know how many are in a dozen either.
Is anyone else scared that this upcoming generation is going to be running our country.
Note to defensive youngsters- I know not all of you are like that!!!:)

Talk about retard. You should have told the teenager that half a dozen is six. Makes you wonder about our schools.
Makes you wonder about the parents too.
Next time order a baker's dozen. That will blow his little mind.

I went into Burger King, ordered a chicken whopper and was told 'but you can't get a large one'.

I once went through an Arby's drive thru, their computer was down so they gave me my order for $2.00, they didn't know how to add it up on paper.

Let's hear it for the education system!
Thank goodness for fast-food places, or these losers would be dead.
Your only defense is to smile and say 'thank you'.
