Found this in Reader's Digest:
The milk shake machine at the fast-food restaurant I manage was broken, so I had an assistant post a sign to that effect on the drive-through speaker. A short time later, a customer pulled up to the speaker.
"May I take your order?" I asked.
Crash, boom, bang! came the response.
I asked the customer to pull around. "Were you pounding on the speaker?" I asked the driver.
"Yes, I was," she admitted.
"Why would you do that?"
"Because the sign on the speaker said 'Shake Machine Broken.' "
