This is a question 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".

I work for a newspaper in the advertising dept (yeah, i've sold my soul) Some might even say the newspaper is Independent of any political party...but I digress

anyway, we've recently put out a supplement to go out in this un-named newspaper. It was my job to make sure that we hit targets etc... it was also my job to make sure all the flyers and stuff we send to clients have the right information on.

One bloody stat, cost us £3,000- the same £3000 which would have made us hit target, Who's fault was it? well, if you were paying attention in class, you would know...

i've been kicking myself about that for a week now. cuntsocks.
