Stolen straight from my friend James at Full-Metal-Blog (see link on right) but it wasted my time so I thought I'd let it waste yours.

Some of these are so good:
I do network administration and end user support. A particular clerical person was always having problems running Windows for Workgroups. The hard drive finally crashed, and when we got it back I convinced the boss to load her machine with DOS only. I created a batch file menu, tested it, and then compiled it into an exe file. When the person was at lunch I installed it on her machine.
When she came back from lunch she called and said her computer didn't work. I asked her to read the screen to me. She said "Bad Command or File Name." So I went over to her desk.
We started her machine and the file menu screen came up. It read:
1. Main Frame
2. Word Processing
Press the number of your choice and hit [enter].
It looked right, so I told her to press either 1 or 2 depending on whether she wanted to go to the main frame or the word processing package. She pressed 4. And, of course, we got the error. When I asked her why she pressed 4, she said, "It says press the number of my choice! I choose 4!"
