Dumbest Thing You've Heard Your Immediate Supervisor Say?

Other than "you're hired"....
I sat in on an interview once and my supervisor kept telling the applicant we were looking for some "long jeopardy" around the office... she meant "longevity" but said it 5 times as "long jeopardy"

Sounds like something a black lady would say.
My first boss once told me thunder was the sound caused by clouds "bumping together."

Just switched to the financial field out of private practice. Some of the terms my manager uses are corporate lingo. I look at him like WTF a lot of the time.

I was embarrassed for about 2 seconds until I realized that she honestly thought that's how it was pronounced... then I smiled on the inside

Been 20 years since I had to deal with one of those. Taking orders is for losers.

Maybe she was testing if the applicant had the balls to call her out on it.

As far as mispronounced words, a guy used to say irregardless all the time and he said it a cpl times while we were interviewing for interns once.
As far as just stupid statements, I've heard several so I would have to think a minute.

She has said so many dumb things, but this may be the dumbest thing she has said/done:
When remote-controlling someone's computer to help them with a problem, she points at things on their screens with her finger!! Obviously they can't see that. She needs to use the mouse cursor to point things out. She has done this more than once.

You mean points at her computer screen while directing theirs?

When I worked construction, one of my supervisors would say strewdriver.

"As long as you are 100% right, I have your back." News flash douche knuckle. If I am right I am right. It is when I frick up that I need my boss to step in and point out the awesome job I did every other day of my employ.

Was in retail and some bosses would say we couldn't do things because it was the law.
It wasn't the law, it was just company policy.
Also, most people think sales tax is a federal tax.
So glad im not in retail anymore.
