Stupid Roommates

I live with another woman who is about thirty years old. She is totally stupid. She has done a lot of stupid things and I am sure she will keep on like this until she dies. One day she was trying to fix the cable of a ceiling lamp because it was out of order. The first time she had an electric shock because she tried to fix it without switching off the main power. I thought that she would switch it off before she tries again but, for my surprise, she just wore a pair of gloves and tried again. I was amazed by her stupidness. I could not stand it anymore and asked her why she didn’t switch off the power and she told me: “You are right. That’s a good idea..”

At my last job, I was a do-everything. I fixed the copier when the secretary added more paper to the ventilation slots. I explained to the custodians that vacuuming the small pile of nails, tacks, and wire would actually be BAD for the vacuum. But to this day, I still have arguments with my boss over one topic. She believes that if you sit too near or too long in front of a computer, it will give you cancer. I cannot convince her otherwise, simply because HER DOCTOR told her this, and therefore, it MUST be true. What the hell is the medical profession coming too???

I worked at a Wendy’s in high school for a few years. One trick we pulled on this really dense guy was the “pickle count”. We had him stand in our big back freezer, counting pickles from a industrial size bucket into another one-to make sure our inventory was right. He was back there for half a shift until the manager found him!

Him: “I can download games like Quake and play them during lunch, you know.”

Me: “We’re only allowed 10 megs in our accounts, and the system administrators would notice you downloading a large file.”

Him: “Nah, I could hack it so he couldn’t.”

Me: “Ah, so you are into hacking. By the way do you know any programming languages?”

Him: “Yeah, of course.”

Me: “Which ones?”

Him: “I can’t tell you or else you’ll use them.”

Me: “Just by mentioning C++ or Pascal or whatever will not instantly make me a genius with those languages.”

Him: “Oh sorry, I didn’t understand you. Yeah, I know C++ and Pascal.”

Me: “What compiler do you use?”

Him: “Well, Qbasic is my favorite.”

Me: “Nobody over the age of eight uses QBasic for serious purposes.”

Him: “But they made windows with QBasic.”
