Training courses, seminars and conferences
Inspirational or a waste of precious slacking-off time? I once went on a buzzword bingo-laden training course which ended up with my being held at gunpoint in public. Could have gone better, to be honest. Tell us your tales from either side of the lectern

It's small comfort knowing they're ensuring your job security
It hurts, sometimes, holding in the laughter:
Dept director: Where is my window? It just disappeared!
me: Click on the task bar at the bottom of your screen, you've just minimised it (leave as the arguing starts)
I regularly get calls and emails about messages that their computers are infected (That's an ad on the website. Ignore it.) or that they should forward a virus warning to everyone they know. *sigh*

Just this week I spent 45 minutes listening to my colleagues arguing over a "fault" in the email sending system
and how they could find a way to solve it - at that point I took pity on them and went over to fix it in about 30 seconds (they needed to give the links different name attributes)
I think I actually mentioned job security at that point.
