Expensive Mistakes
coopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"
No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

Memory Sticks
My company was demoing it's HR software a while back, the presentation was stored on the salesman's memory stick.
Salesman turns up, puts stick in laptop, sets up projector screen and is somewhat crestfallen when the file listing on the memory stick is beamed up in front of a packed conference room and visiting company's HR department.
Apparently "schoolgirl anal.wmv" raised a little controversy.
Bizarrely, we got the contract...
