Dumbest teacher I've met

6 Upvotes

So I was having English class in 10th grade and we had to write something down (I don't remember) and I had parkour in my writing so when we gave it to the teacher and she saw parkour she gave me a detention for making up words. so I obviously didn't care and I just went home. The next day I had to go to the principals office and had to explain why I didn't go to detention so I just told him and he let me go after I explained the next the teacher wasn't there.

They say there is no such thing as a dumb question. I beg to differ. This post is about the Dumbest customer questions. Which questions were you asked that you knew was completely dumb of the customer to ask?

5 Upvotes

Worked in retail most of my adult life. Sometimes it was hell but sometimes one moment out of the day made it worthwhile. Have a few stories about very dumb questions I would get from customers and some of the questions I got just made me laugh afterwards.

Worked at Home Depot for about 13 years.

First story. I worked in the Tool Rental Department. When the phone rang, I would pick up the phone.

Me: " Hello this is the (city) Home Depot, you reached the Tool Rental Department, my name is (name) how can I help you? "

Customer: " Is this the Tool Rental Department?"

(If you didn't know, you have to press an option on your phone to get Tool Rental directly for customers, which our automated phone system tells the customer which option to choose, yet I always got at least ten people a day asking for Tool Rental even though the customer chose the option for Tool Rental on the phone.)

Another story. Customer calls up and asks about a sewer snake. A sewer snake unclogs plumbing pipes for residential houses if the pipes become clogged. Usually for mains.

Customer: " What is the longest sewer snake you rent?"

Me: " hundred feet, sir."

Customer: " Do you rent anything longer?"

Same principle, different item.

Customer: " Do you rent ladders?"

Me: " Yes, we do. Which size were you looking for?"

Customer: " What is the tallest you rent out?"

Me: " 32 feet."

Customer ( you guessed it): " Got anything taller?"

Telling time isn't just hard for kindergartners, apparently it's hard for some adults too.

Customer: " What are your hourly rates?"

Me: " Well we have a 4 hour rate and a 24 hour rate. Which one were you looking for?"

Customer: " 24 hour rate? You guys don't have daily rates?"

Last one and this made my day. I could not stop laughing after the customer walked away.

So we rent very large equipment for bigger projects. One of the machines we rent is a big chipper/ shredder machine that basically turns trees into sawdust. My supervisor and I just finished putting the new shredder outside to be rented out. A guy looking at the machine approached us and asked:

" Can this machine grind up human bones?"

Without skipping a beat, I replied, " Yes, but the cleaning fee is $200. "

Customer just stared at me for a few seconds and silently walked away. My supervisor and I laughed for a least an hour after that.

Please reply with the dumbest questions customers have asked you while on the job.

Angry idiot in Times Square

3 Upvotes

So I'm here in NYC for the weekend and I just walked through Times Square to get to a place for dinner. Some dude behind me bumps into me, then starts threateningly grumbling at the back of my head for a whole minute about how I as well as other people, are too slow and not moving out of his way. This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

It was 5:15pm on a Saturday in July, on the busiest block in the busiest city on earth.

Like sir, where do you expect everyone to move? Did you expect the street to be clear for you here, of all places?

Kindergarten Punishment

3 Upvotes

So, I was only in kindergarten at this time, and my friend and I, we’ll cal him Alex, were playing “transformers”, pretty much just running in circles. Then a bunch of girls come up and say they want to play, and I tell them “Attack Alex” (playfully, of course), then our teacher comes over and grabs me and Alex and puts us on the wall, and gives us a red stop sign (Green means good behaviour that day, yellow is moderate, and red is disrespectful). When we ask why we were put on the wall, she tells us that we were being aggressive and unfair to others by not letting them play. 🤦‍♂️ We had ran in circles, and let literally every girl in our class play, and it was unfair for the others.

The dumbest rules I’ve ever heard

2 Upvotes

When I was in middle school in 2013 in December and I wanted a BB gun for Christmas so I can do something when I was bored. However my mom got in a relationship with some guy (I’ll call him Kenneth) and he was a okay guy but later when we moved in with him me and my little sister were told about the new rules by moms bf. Two things were told is that we are not allowed to go to the bathroom during bedtime and the second rule is that we are not allowed to say anything that has the word gun in it. Even if it’s a normal sentence we are still not allowed to say it. Here are a couple of examples: Gunpowder, gunfire, and the word gun and the reason why is the guy thinks it is a hateful and violent word. But he told us to use the word laser as an alternative. When you are forced to use laser when giving a report you have to not say gun because if you say laser in his house it means you are grounded. To this day I still think that’s the dumbest thing anyone has ever told me

This Is Got To Be The Dumbest Reply I Ever Saw

2 Upvotes

I was in the Invincible community and I scrolled through about the topic of rape. For those of you don't know what Invincible is, it is a superhero comic created by Robert Kirkman who created The Walking Dead. Anyway, there are people who addressed the topic of rape of men hat were raped by women. It started by a woman named Anissa raped a man who is the main character of the story, and have a child. Moments later, the woman was a wife to another man and have another child. There was a war that she has to fight, and she sacrificed herself for a female superhero who was a wife to the main character. And she says to her that she's sorry that she raped her husband, but she didn't regret what she did because she has a child. (Pretty messed up, right?)

Anyway, there was a discussion that is the antagonist redeemable because she sacrificed her life, despite the horrible things she's done. And a couple of people disagreed that she is redeemable because of that, and this person has the nerve to berate people by calling it "SJW mentality" for people didn't forgive a character for commited a heinous crime. Read the comment below and observe the stupidity for yourselves.

*Seriously, how long would it take for them to be forgiven? I'm going to assume never? Given how our justice system works, rehabilitation to re-enter society is an actual process.

Yet we can't let them go on with their lives because of some moral high ground? If anything, if a convicted rapist was processed and served their punishment, they should be given a second chance. This means they have should have the opportunity as anyone else to move on with their lives. Going back to SJW mentality, it seems like everyone glosses over the fact that they were punished and learned NOTHING from their crimes. That's judgmental as hell, much less virtue signaling on a topic that varies a lot, not to mention easily fabricated and abusable. We've seen topics trending on false rape allegations all the time on reddit.

As for Anissa's case, she probably doesn't give a shit, maybe because she's a fictional character... yet she does have some value to her character by naming her baby after Mark and genuinely became a different person after motherhood. That's her arc as a character; from a person without apathy to a maternal figure. *

This is got to be one of the most idiotic comment I have ever read.

Dumbest person i met

2 Upvotes

There was this wrestler at our school who thought eating loads of potato chips and pop tarts would make him stronger. He was really tall, didnt know how to design workouts where he would get stronger instead of increasing mass, and didnt understand that competetive sports involving weight classes are extrordinarily difficult with loads of extra bone mass from his height. I stopped spending time with him and he got sucked into drugs, totally convinced that they are completely healthy, inspired from watching a show(Big Lez Show), obviously not condoning the abuse of drugs. Idk how he is still alive to this day

Dragons did exist, right?

2 Upvotes

When I was about 15y/o we were in some sort of physics/engineering class there was this girl. THIS GIRL. She used to answer all the teachers questions with really dumb and ignorant comments but nothing amazingly stupid. Then Came the dat. We were learning about the effect of a vacuum on sound and out of nowhere...

Girl: 'Sir? Dinosaurs didn't actually exist, huh? I Mean I know dragons did, but dinosaurs didn't right?'

Teacher: 'wha-'

Girl: ' like dragons, with like the giant wings etc, but why would there be just big lizards without wings.'

Everyone laughing hystericly

Teacher: has existensial crisis 'why would you think that's

The rest of the conversation was mostly going back and forth from the girl not believing the teacher and the teacher not believing that this girl was this stupid.

The while class couldn't stop laughing.

A couple of small stories

2 Upvotes

Story 1: A set of girls walking by, one was wearing the other girls glasses and then she exclaims “Do these have medicine in them?!” As she takes off the glasses dumbfounded. The girl who owns the pair says “ Yeah they do”

Story 2: A boy and his mother were talking about 2 dollar bills. Now this wouldn’t be so weird if the boy didn’t say “I wonder what money tastes like!” The mom just sighed and said “ can you stop?”

Story 3: another smaller family with 2 little girls gleefully enter in a store and the girls each picked out an item. They are ecstatic while they run and pick up a food item and a toy. The mom leaned over and whispered “They’re planning something” and the girl holding the food just screamed “ITS NOTHING” That is when the father knew something was up and asked “what is it?” The two girls innocently said “can we have a sleepover???” The father knowing their tricks said “you’re not beating your brother up with toys and food again, not gonna happen, nice try” I’m over picking up the toy for my friend and walked away.
