A while back, a girl named Christine worked with us who was almost as irritating as Jenga. She was rude to customers, rude to her co-workers, and was not careful in her handling of things. I swear she broke something every second day that she was there, whether it be coffee pots or dishes. Anytime we heard a crash, we assumed it was Christine (and were usually right).
I was mopping the floor one day when she came up to me and told me I was doing it all wrong, and that she knew because she'd been mopping since she was four.
I asked her how old she was, and she said seventeen.
That meant that she'd been mopping since I was twenty-two....
Not to mention that her mopping skills were problematic. She believed the most effective way to mop was to mop first, and then sweep the wet floor. On a floor regularly covered with napkins, paper cups, and the like, this was particularly bizarre and messy.

She finally got fired for her insubordination.
