Clients Are StupidI once had to train a client on how to use their new website. I said, "point the mouse at that button." They looked at me with a quizzical expression, picked up the mouse and held it to the screen. Can you beat this bit of client stupidity?

While working for the very well known music television channel......they hired a designer solely on a ten question questionairre, based largely around Dreamweaver. This person was to be the sole, key creative for the entire pan-european operation.
The crunch question was, 'what is CSS'.
The guy who 'won' would build everything using frames rather than tables (ie. a table cell would be an individual frame) and had no grasp on how to change a font
He didn't have a portfolio, any practical design experience or education.
Not strictly client based I realise, but shudderingly stupid never-the-less.
