This is a question Corporate Idiocy

Comedian Al Murray recounts a run-in with industrial-scale stupidity: "Car insurance company rang, without having sent me a renewal letter, asking for money. Made them answer security questions." In the same vein, tell us your stories about pointless paperwork and corporate quarter-wits

You may laugh, but I once had an interview at Tescos back before they started working the slave trade
When I arrived they told me they'd lost my pre-interview suitability form thing and asked if I'd mind filling in another. It was just a multiple choice affair so I filled it in fairly rapidly. The "interviewer" then pulled out some clear plastic which circled all the right answers, put it over the questionnairre, added up my score and told me that the bit of paper said I was completely unsuitable for working at Tescos and would I please leave. And that was the only time I have been escorted from a shop.

Those clear plastic sheets are probably sold on eBay by disgruntled former HR staff :)
