Story from a friend:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Today, I was working in one of our secure spaces with three of our female employees. One mom in her 40s, one hottie in her '30s and one airhead in her 20s. All are grapics/admin types. the eldest and youngest have college degrees.
The youngest lady was doing some honeymoon vacation planning online and was reviewing some Hawaii resorts. During her airfare search, she turned to me and asked about the travel times and best departure points ( I lived in Hawaii for five years.).
As we discussed this point, she was looking at an air travel map on the web. As she looked at the map, she asked why does this flight from Washington Dulles-Los Angeles-Honolulu take eight hours...and this one from Washington Reagan-Atlanta-Honolulu take ten? As I started to answer, she hit me (and the other ladies) with the Dingbat Bomb!
"Look here...the map shows the flight path, she said." "Why does it take so long when it GOES DOWNHILL ALL THE WAY?"
For a sec, I just stared at her my mouth agape. I had NEVER heard anyone say anything so ignorant in my life. (As a retired naval officer I had to learn navigation and the latitude-longitude-time relationships. A bit of common sense is still resident in my mind too...not much...but a bit.)
Then I just burst out laughing and the two other ladies did too. As the young ditzy one tried to 'splain by asking AGAIN...for clarification, I told her to stifle while she was behind!
We were all laughing so hard I almost fell out of my chair. Even the young one was hooting it up in good cheer when she realized what she had said. The other ladies were just shaking their heads in amazement.
