    I work in IT so i have heard a few but this is the one that all others are measured against and what i use to assure people they will never top this

    was on a vacation day so i left a guy instructions on how to access his act database
    1. click start
    2. click my computer
    3. click c drive
    4. etc etc etc

    i come in the next day and he is bitching and crying about how i cost him bonuses because my instructions were wrong.

    i told him there was no way and to show me what he did

    we go to his office, he clicks start and leaves

    im standing there thinking he went to the restroom or what not so i watch him walk down the hallway

    i follow him and approach him as he is sitting @ my desk

    Me: whats wrong?
    Him: see nothing
    Me: what are you talking about?
    Him: im clicking on your computer and nothing is happening.
    Me: WTF are you going on about
    Him: your instructions said click on your computer (see step 2 above)
    Me: seriously whats wrong
    Him: [dead serious and agitated look] your instructions are printed out and say to click on your computer
    Me: it says click my computer, the icon on the right. are you really this stupid?
    Owner then intervenes and tells him to leave my office

    Wow.

    Hey...I grew up in the late 50s and early 60s, and my brother and I will tell you for a fact that Bugs Bunny was gray, and Daffy Duck was black.

    My supervisor when I was a student worker at my college:

    "He's from New Mexico so he needs to fill out the foreign exchange student paperwork."

    There was a bad storm at work, so I was counting the seconds between the lightning and thunder, and she corrected me that "you're supposed to count the other way around because nothing travels faster than the speed of sound."

    She thought the Philippines was in South America because "they all have Spanish names".


    Oh my gosh the NM part! I went through a TSA checkpoint. The agent, upon thoroughly examining my NM Driver's License, asked why I do not have a passport....erm....

    If that happened to me I would have to assume he was doing a bit. Like some stupid IT comedy skit

    Once a fairly well educated person looked at me and said "I don't believe in dinosaurs". After a few minutes of silence and me blinking in confusion I asked "Sooo what are those things at the Smithsonian?". The reply and I kid you not, he said "Lies created by the US government"

    sadly he was just that stupid. he also copied the database later on and was doing work on the side on his own until the owner caught on and called the detectives. he was prosecuted for theft and a slew of other charges. he tried to implicate me saying i snuck him the files.

    the detectives interviewed me, owner, vice president, hr and accounting. they interviewed me last and they said we are only doing this as part of the process but everyone has given us a clear picture that you really dont like him
