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

has been my record so far. My favourite was when after about ten minutes of him giving me instructions, I asked what the "defrost" button did. After realising the electronic noises he'd been hearing were in fact me heating milk for a latte, he lost it a bit, screamed "do not make me slang you" then got very upset about how much of his time I'd wasted. When I pointed out that as he'd called me, it was entirely his fault for wasting time, he called me a pig faced bastard and hung up. Enjoyed my latte though :)
