'Get this to me as ASAP as possible': 20+ unwise comments from horrible bosses

At one point in everyone's professional career, you come across a manager who says something so ridiculous you have to question how it's possible that they are in charge of you. It could be a moment of sheer ignorance or a tone-deaf comment. Sometimes, it's troubleshooting technology, which is occasionally understandable. However, sometimes, it's as simple as "Where do I find the Spam folder?" and you really have to question how these people have functioned successfully over the last several decades. This is particularly true when the technical demands and expectations for you as an employee are significant. How can someone demand so much of the people who are "under" them on the corporate food chain while being simultaneously clueless and incompetent with regard to those same expectations?
