Clients Are StupidI 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?

Pooping myselfI used to work in a small paper shop in one of the posher areas of Bristol. The shop was regularly full of toffee-nosed eejuts who thought they knew better.
One such customer was a lady that used to walk around in brightly coloured shell suits with a bikini on underneath -she must have been in her mid sixties, so the sight was not one of pleasantness!!. One day she came in and was thumbing through a magazine on the counter and suddenly looked up at me and said "Pardon?"
Not having said anything, I was quite shocked.
The rest of the conversation went something like this:
Woman: Yes you did. You said "shit"
Me: Er, no I didn't.
Woman: Yes you did. Do you have a toilet here?
(our only toilet was at the back of the shop and I didn't want her rummaging around out there)
Me: No, sorry we don't.
Woman: Well what do you do if you need to go to the toilet?
Me: We have to go in our trousers or use one of the special bottles provided by the manager.
She turned her nose up at me and left -I never saw her again after that.
