I used to love joking to my old boss, a former business college
professor who was surrounding me with MBA grads instead of techies,
along the lines of the following:
Boss: 'Big plans this weekend, Brett?'
Brett: 'Not really, I have the weekend free so I was thinking of getting
my MBA.'
The MBA minions, the witty types that they were, then always told the
following joke to me in one form or another, without the last three
exchanges. This new version came to me today, and given the stream of
posts I just read about clueless clients (many of whom I bet have MBAs
*giggle*), seemed good for the list :)

A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces
height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and
shouts: "Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"
The man below says: "yes you're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet
above this field."
"You must work in Information Technology" says the balloonist.
"I do" replies the man. "How did you know?"
"Well" says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically
correct, but it's of no use to anyone." [end of previous version]
The man below says "you must work in business."
"I do" replies the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well", says the man, "you don't know where you are, or where you're
going, but you expect me to be able to help. You're in the same
position you were before we met, but now it's my fault."
