Clients Are StupidI once had to train a client on how to use their new website. I said, "point the mouse at that button." They looked at me with a quizzical expression, picked up the mouse and held it to the screen. Can you beat this bit of client stupidity?

In my previous job as a technical assistant (lackey) at a chartered surveyors.I was gathering pictures for a report, and suddenly noticed that all the pictures on the network has suddenly turned into vbs files.
So I worked out it was the PlanColumbia virus or something, and then proceeded to purge the network of all the overwritten jpegs. All 6600+ of them.
I found out the Managing Parnter was responsible, and had recived an email with "top secret fbi files!!" and had happily run it.
So when he got a phonecall from a client apologising for sending him a virus, he decided to uninfect his system by deleteing the email, and not telling the IT guy.
Who when I told, "these files are viruses on the networks - I opened them up and checked them".
He went, really? *click*click* Nothings happening.
*sigh*
