» Clients Are Stupid
Hunk of the Day
This wasn't strictly the client's fault, but it's my favourite incident working as an IT bod.
This manager in the Civil Service had just inherited a workstation from a secretary. He phoned the desk, absolutely livid, saying that he couldn't get rid of the wallpaper.
"OK, chill out for Christ's sake" I thought.
What had actually happened was that every day, he would get a pin-up hunk of the day as his wallpaper. He could get rid of it, but as soon as he logged on the next morning, he would get a brand new picture of a topless fireman holding a kitten or something similar.
