  • More Intelligent, SC or Sparrow?

    The automatic doors at the front of our store were broken today, and we had technicians in to fix them.
    The techs were on site for about 2 hours. The doors were open most of the time, the techs only closed them for short periods when absolutely necessary. During this time we had signs on the doors "DOORS BROKEN, THEY DO NOT OPEN AUTOMATICALLY", and we had the the techs themselves who were happy enough to open the doors by hand if needed.

    At least 6 SC's still managed to walk into the door, nose on glass, funny look on face

    Only 1 became sucky instead of stupid when he complained, though he did complain to a staff member from the store next door instead of in our store.

    I have been at this store for 6 months and only seen one bird fly into the doors.

    You do the maths

    When I saw the title, I thought you meant Jack Sparrow.. Yeah, the birds are probably more intelligent than the SC's for sure!

      The guy that complained to your neighbor wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

        Bunch of birdbrains.

        Pardon me, that was unfair to birds. I shouldn't have compared them to SCs.

        Side note: I have the tendency to walk faster than automatic doors open - but I've never walked into one. How hard is it to figure out if the door in front of you is open yet?

        If you have to ask, it's probably better posted at www.fratching.com

          OMG, I thought he meant *Captain* Jack Sparrow too!

            Yes, but given the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow...

                    What? I don't know that! Auuuuuuuugh!

                    I wish we could have a bridge of death in our store.

                    Q1 What do you want?
                    A1 A book

                    Q2 What type of book?
                    A2 With words

                    Q3 Be more specific
                    A3 I don't understand ....Auuuuuuuugh!

                    This would limit all customers to just 2 dumb Questions. Yay!

                        This topic actually made me go into hysterics. People can be so stupid..
                        For the most part, I don't care about what everyone else is doing, or what is popular.
