A place where we can tell actual Dilbert-esque tales from work, whine about work, tell office jokes, comment on the movie Office Space, etc.
Half the reason I started this thread is so Raven can tell us some more of his weird calls! So bring it Raven.

OK. I have one :)
I was once chastised by my manager for figuring out a problem for my client. The client came over and asked me a question and I answered it.
Little did I know there was some dramatic history behind this...
My manager, "Why did you answer Christine's question?"
Me, "Because she asked me."
My manager, "Well you really shouldn't have done that."
Me, "Why?"
My manager, "Because she asked Brian the same question and he told her there was no solution and he was working up a whole proposal to find an alternate solution and you just undermined him."
Me, "But my answer was right."
My manager, "Yes your answer was right. But you figured it out too FAST. And you made your co-worker look stupid. Don't do that again."
Things that make you go hmm.....
