I am looking to collect some dumb sayings for a project, so if can you please take a minute to send me the dumbest or silliest thing a superior or boss has said to you at work, (any job, not just here, and no don't name names).
Nothing that requires a backstory to it, just simple one or two sentence statements that you have been told over the years that in and of themselves have made you shake your head, stare at them in awe, spit your coke out your nose, or whatever.
Thanks

Oh this wasn’t the bad ol days, just ‘01 and I was lucky enough to be a week out from back surgery.....he just assumed that I was on pain meds and said “Ok, one more try, what the f**k do you think you are doing?” He didn’t even yell it. I miss that guy, he did me right before I got my medical discharge. Last I heard he died in Iraq.
Damn shame.
LOL! That reminds me of the class of middle-schoolers I was trying to teach to use the Reader’s Guide to Periodical Literature. The next day when they came to class, I ask what the Reader’s Guide was, and a little guy said it was an index to pair-a-diggles.
