Worst Person for the JobIn a week where it emerges that the new Health Secretary is a fan of the hocus-pocus that is homeopathy, tell us about people who are spectacularly out of their depth in a job. Have you ever found yourself wallowing in your own incompetence? Tell us. (Note: "Name of football manager/politician - nuff said" does not constitute an answer)

VAX / VMS tale (because I'm THAT old)VMS automatically kept old versions of any edited files. There was a command, purge, which deletes all these historical versions. VMS also allowed any command to be redefined, a fact which a support person became painfully aware of when, after running the purge command to make space for his task, he discovered that the customer had redefined this standard, commonly used command to mean "delete everything on the disc"...
