The worst thing is the expectation that what you do takes no at all. The best one was the job order I got from a sales rep that put in the order (without consulting me) that had a time estimate on it of 1/2 hour. The job said "Add a create user button", or something similar.

I added a button to the correct page that said "Create User". I even did it in 1/3 of the time allocated. We had a nice long talk the next day when I explain that if they actually wanted the button to do anything I'd need at least several hours and a fair amount of discovery. She wasn't happy.
