I did see a job for a generic administrator post afew months back. They wanted someone educated to a masters degree standard and only offered minimum wage. the hours weren't even enough to claim income support. it was astounded.
Maybe it was a typo, and they wanted a geriatric administrator, i.e. a pensioner who just wanted to top up his pension money.Edited by ambuletz on Wednesday 30th August 10:38
One that made me snigger recently was a line uttered by a woman in a TV show, contemptuous of the girl her son had had an altercation with.
She said, "That one is like margarine, she spreads easily."

On a similar note, the people over the road from us are having a loft extension added.
The chippy's were sawing joists & the sound was a really unusual high-pitch whine as the saw cut into the wood, lots of short cuts.
We were in the garden & my mrs pipes up with "wtf is that?"
Don't worry I told her, Chewbacca will never talk.
Yep, had to be there.
