I was at the checkout of a K-Mart. The clerk rang up $46.64 charge. I gave her a fifty dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I gave the
money back to her and told her that she had made a mistake in MY favor. She became indignant and informed me she was Educated and knew what she was doing, and returned the money again. I gave her the Money back .... same scenario! I departed the store with the $46 64

I walked into a Starbucks with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a Grande Latte. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard that said 'buy one-get one free.' 'They're already buy-one-get-one-free,' she said, 'so I guess they're both free'.
She Handed me my free Lattes and I walked out the door.

While looking at a house, my brother asked the real Estate agent which direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning. She asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?' When my brother explained that the sun rises in the East, and has for sometime, she shook her head and said, 'Oh I don't keep up with all that stuff.'

I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I told him, 'The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.' He responded, 'Is that Eastern or Pacific time?' Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, 'Uh, Pacific.'

I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in good hands. 'Now,' she asked me, has your plane arrived yet?'

While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man Ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked Him if he
would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. 'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungr y
enough to eat 6 pieces.'

When I was at Wendy's, I gave a 16 year old blond girl one of these. A look of panic came over her face. She looked at me and said, "Sir. Do you have anything smaller? I don't have enough change in my register."

I had a friend who used to use that line all the time as a joke. The ones who thought he was serious are the ones I worry about!

I have actually done the Starbucks one, personally (I used to be a shift manager). It was something I would do just to be randomly nice to people. Another example is that occasionally we would get the lines 'Oh it must be free, then' if there was a problem with the transaction. Rather then give the customer a stupid look I would generally nod in agreement and void it. It always got people to smile. Doesn't really bother me if people thought I was an idiot for doing it. I got something out of it.
The rest... uhg. I can't speak for but.. just wow.

Once on the way to work, dressed in my LEO uniform, I stopped and pick up a present for my daughter. I wrote a check and the girl behind the counter asked me for my phone number so that she could write it on the check. I said "911" she said "duh, How could I forget that.
