Work Project Gone Horribly Wrong

[Plecostomus]

So, the company I work at makes automation solutions. Robots, servos, remote control devices.

Now I was tasked doing a Very Important CAD file today and I had to work through lunch. Well that's no good so I decided to slap some remote controlled wheels on a robot arm and program it to bring me something from Burger King.

Two hours later it returned with some chick named Sarah Conner and we had the following conversation:

"What the hell?"
"YOUR MEAL HAS ARRIVED"
"This isn't what I ordered."
"YES IT IS."
"No it isn't. I wanted Burger King"
"I HAVE BROUGHT YOU TWO DOUBLE WHOPPERS YOU MUST EAT THEM"
*headdesk* "Put her back, right now."
"AFFIRMATIVE, WILL RETURN HER TO LAVA PIT WHERE SHE WAS LOCATED PREVIOUSLY"

This resulted in a half-hour chase and an armed standoff, I ended up taking the wheels off the robot and driving Ms. Conner home.

Damn thing is over there in the corner trying to convince me that diced human served over beans with a light wine sauce isn't cannibalism it's "French."

So anyone else ever have a work-related project go horribly wrong like this? Share your stories.

The key question is whether human flesh goes best with a red wine sauce or a white wine sauce. Tricky, tricky...

I know, right? Maybe I should make two batches then?

You show much promise, young padawan.

I emailed this to my boss and he was very amused over the fact that we make "programmable remote-controlled wheels."

Some days I really love this forum.

You think it's easy coming up with stuff like this day after day for your amusement?

It is.

Doctors tell me it is a condition rather than a talent.

I'm glad you didn't ask for two double whoppers with cheese.

I updated four months worth of calendars for my retarded kiss butt west point boss that HE set up only to find out he didnt fix it so the whole office can view it so I wasted all that time for nothing and have to do all the work over again. I hate this fool. I cant wait until he leaves.
