Customers from Hell
The customer is always right. And yet, as 'listentomyopinion' writes, this is utter bollocks.
Tell us of the customers who were wrong, wrong, wrong but you still had to smile at (if only to take their money.)

I feel your pain
Viz the female facilities manager who demanded "Real cherry veneer, but in a different colour"
Cherry veneer is cherry veneer coloured you dimwit!
Or the Head of a large horticultural research operation who sent a snotty letter because "Her office is smaller than her paygrade demands". Read the drawings we sent you on numerous occasions you stuck up cow! BTW her office was 1/2 a square metre smaller than she thought she should get because SHE demanded we box-in a pipe!
There were plenty more. I resigned to get into a different job but not before I took on a 5-floor renovation for TWO female designers. Passed that particular poisoned chalice to a hated colleague. He never forgave me.
