Funny Fridays: Being A Jerk

Now, I do not approve of just being a jerk for no reason. I work in customer service. But sometimes, to make a really funny joke... You come across as a meanie. Sometimes, not on purpose and sometimes on purpose.

This leads to our funny friday for today. And to why I love being Canadian. SO MUCH.

The lighthouse station called Arctowski is probably the most southerly lighthouse in the world. Built at the Polish research station in Antarctica named after Henryk Arctowski, the famous 19th century Polish geographer and Antarctic explorer. Situated on King George Island in the South Shetlands group, its geographical position is 62o10'S, 58o28'W.
The following is the transcript of the actual radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland: 

Canadians: Please divert your course 15 degrees the South to avoid a collision.
Americans: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees the North to avoid a collision.
Canadians: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.
Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.
Canadians: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course.
Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH, I SAY AGAIN, THAT'S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER-MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.
Canadians: This is a lighthouse. It's your call, over...

How fantastic is that?!

Now this next one... Sigh. Is just so my job. I work with these jerks all the time. But I have to admit, they're quite funny. So I just laugh it off. After yelling about how stupid they are!

I am so glad I only work with inbound calls. No one goes out of their way to do this to people when they're calling to complain about their cars!

Finally, the last funny friday of the day. Don't even reply. Also known as e-mails from an a-hole. He just finds ads on craigslist, replies to them, and just tries to disturb people to their very core. It usually ends up with a lot of swearing. You've been warned.

But for my lovely and clean funny fridays, I have picked one out that has no such vulgarity.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend!
