This is a question Clients Are Stupid

I 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?

Ooh another one.
....Used to do student work on a one day a week basis for a food manufacturing company.

I got an urgent call mid-week asking me if I could come in ASAP because the SQL Server I was maintaining wasn't working.

When I got there I noticed the office had been decorated. I asked what had happened and they said that during the decorating they had decided to move the server.

They just unplugged it, moved it and switched it on expecting it all to work. I promptly logged in, had to restore all the network connections and get the whole thing up and running again. Took me 2 bloody days!
