Dilbert in Real Life...

My co-workers wonder at times if Scott Adams get inspiration for his Dilbert comic strip from our office. Our boss even agrees that it is uncanny some of the strips that match real life. (She is not the pointy haired boss either!)

Some of the crazy stuff we see every day includes:

• A manager who does not know how to print documents from the accounting system we use so they ask others to do it for them. (And this was after someone showed them how to...)
• The same manager is a delegator pushing everything they can to their co-workers (but still taking the credit for it when it goes well).
• A chain smoking grand-mother who pushes eating organic in the break room. That is a bit ironic.
• An administrative assistant practically running a small business out of her office.
• Drama queens in the mail sniping at each other each day.
• A manager who claimed ignorance on a decision during a meeting because she was not paying attention.
• End users submitting project requests without requirements (and expecting an estimated of when it will be delivered).

Other people are probably in similar scenarios at their office. Most of us that work in corporate world have a pointed haired boss, Wally, Dogbert, Asok, and Dilbert. What funny things have you seen?
