Why do people always blame others ?

    My mom moved to a brand new building and I wanted to make doubles of her keys of her apartment, so I cross the street where they do that, and brought them 2 different keys to make doubles.

    The first key went fine and could open that door, but the other key didn't open the door, so I went back and they tried again, so I went to moms apartment and it still didnt work, so I went back and they made an other one, and I went back to moms apartment and it still didnt work.....In all they tried 4 times and they weren't able, so i went to the cash to get my money back for the key that they werent able to make a double of....so the girl at the cash said, maybe you should get a new door lock, so I told her that it was a brand new building and a brand new door knob, so it was their fault not ours.

    All that time I had a smile on my face when i want back and back and back, but when the girl at the cash said that I should try changing my door knob, then I realized how people just can't admit that they weren't able to do the job properly or they didn,t have the right key to start with to make a double. If the original key opens the door, then it's not the door knob its their key !!! DOH....

    That's when I told her, that the building is new, the door knob is new and your employees weren't able to make a double because either they re incompetent, or they didn't have the right key to start off with.

    Well, I asked the 2nd guy who made the key, and I asked him how often does this happen that he misses a key and a client has to come back? So he told me very rarely, like once in a 100 times. Then I came back again and again, so now he missed 4 in a 104 times. Then the dumb dumb, made a double of the previous key that he missed..... Can you spell JACK ASS !!! I keep my cool because, murphy's law was written for me, and I'm used to it.

    I have no trouble taking the blame when it is my fault. (patting self on back). I think it's pride and stupidity that makes it such a big deal to some(a lot) of people.

    Last night I stopped at McD's for a burger and fries. When I finally got my order (with no acknowledgement of my long wait) Ilooked in the bag. NOT only was the bag of fries half full but they were cold as well.

    " I waited 15 minutes and you gave me cold fries?"

    "There are more in the fryer." as she walked away.

    When she came back a few minutes later she handed me the bag without a word.

    I wanted to say "You have a manager shirt on, you should be ashamed of yourself on several counts."

    But I just drove off knowing it would have been a waste of time. Besides, my hamburger was already getting cold. I should have had pizza.

    Then when it was time to get my refund for that key, that same girl at the cash asks me who served me at the counter, as if I knew his name.....

    I said, he didn't tell me his name, and all 3 or 4 employees that tried and weren't able to make a perfect copy didn't tell me their names....

    *Land of Confusion* lyrics comes to mind for some reason...

    Because Eve disobeyed Jehovah, and Adam listened to her. Since then, a sinful inclination to blame others has been passed on to each one of us.

    Everything is my fault so that clears that up.
