I thought bin men only worked one day a week...... until I was about seven. And asked someone.
As for the IT-related incompetence, was this recent?
I remember about 10-12 years ago a colleague telling me about a trainee trying to use the mouse by holding it up to the screen when told to "move the cursor upwards".
I thought such fuckwittery had long since been overcome by familiarity with PCs in all walks of life. In fact, my six-year old daughter who has learning difficulties, has grasped the concept of mice & cursors.

Not so sharpI had an electric pencil sharpener next to my CPU, and when asked what it was told my colleagues it was a pencil drive, and you could store your files on a pencil. They believed it!
