How many euphamisms...

...are there for ditz?

The lights are on but no one is home.
A few sandwiches short of a picnic.
As thick as two short planks.
Not playing with a full deck.
Dumb as a box of rocks.

Why do I want to know this, you ask? (I can hear you wondering - honest.)

Today is President's Day. Where am I? At work. My boss called me from vacation about half an hour ago and said "What are you doing there?" Me: "Uh, working," thinking to myself, duh. Him: "It's a holiday, you know. You don't have to be there."

Fantastic. So it's 1 p.m., I've been here for 5 hours and I DIDN'T NEED TO BE!

I certainly need them. The overtime doesn't hurt, either.

"A few tacos short of a fiesa platter" is my personal fave.

Here's my question: why'd the boss call you on a vacation day??

Not the brightest crayon in the box?

Few fries short of a happy meal?

He could have lt you know at the END of last week!

I've got another one, "Not the brightest bulb in the drawer."

Julia, I'm sorry. If is makes you feel any better, I had to work today anyway, even though it was a holiday.

Do you get time and a half on the OT for working a holiday lol? Or do they magically balance themselves out ;)
