This is a question Corporate Idiocy

Comedian Al Murray recounts a run-in with industrial-scale stupidity: "Car insurance company rang, without having sent me a renewal letter, asking for money. Made them answer security questions." In the same vein, tell us your stories about pointless paperwork and corporate quarter-wits

Good work
If cold callers ring me at home and I'm on a day off I take a similar line by trying to keep them on the 'phone as long as possible.

I'm never rude to the caller, always unfailingly polite and if I'm nearing the end of the patience of the first caller I ask to be referred up to their boss. I figure that I'm being kind in that in the time I was on they could have had 10 snarling racists on the line instead.
