This is a question Clients Are Stupid

I once had to train a client on how to use their new website. I said, "point the mouse at that button." They looked at me with a quizzical expression, picked up the mouse and held it to the screen. Can you beat this bit of client stupidity?

Working in a Kiosk at my local zoo
Customers would always come up to the signs on the side to look what they wanted. After around 2 minutes looking on one, they'd move over to the other one and look there for 2 minutes. The signs were exactly the same but they would still go on looking. Eventually they'd ask "Do you have any Magnums?". Being a Nestle kiosk, we would have no magnums. The customers would then go on to pick several other Walls ice-creams not on the list, before finally picking a Nestle one but saying it completely wrong.

You'd also get the old school customers who refused to step into the modern age. So instead of asking for listed Milkybar ice creams they'd ask for Mini-milks and what not.

That job really got on my tits.
