Why is it that the person put in charge of telling you how to do your job is always the one person who doesn't know how to do your job?
This IT guy was told to wear a suit, no exceptions. But it just so happens that he works in a factory with understandable safety standards, so he wasn't allowed on the floor to do his job. And of course, the guy who passed down the original ruling couldn't be bothered to correct it, so the IT guy had nothing to do but sit there in a suit and tie while stuff started breaking.
It wasn't until he was called in to explain himself that he was able to soundly show how stupid of a decision this whole thing was, and he was finally able to get back to work. Thanks corporate, for your valuable insight on the innerworkings of your own company.
For another fun tale from the land of IT, here's the IT head who stole a coveted email address but couldn't handle the pressure and got canned.
