Nothing's working, and I've checked everything, so it must be YOUR fault

There was one colleague I knew who had the infamous phrase "It'll be all right..."

Long ago I found myself supervising an archaeology student (project on numerical classification of objects) whose ritual greeting seemed to be "Wanna hear a tale of woe?".

His unsurpassed offering was the water-skiing weekend when firstly he got up from steering the boat to go back and sort out some problem with the tow and secondly one of the group managed to write off the boat on its trailer when they were pulling out to go home - right into the path off an off-duty police officer who was the father of one of the girls in the party & had come looking for her.
