Dumb but funny exchange

elusivekThem: HR made an appointment with me for an exit interview. What do they interview about?
Me: I have absolutely no idea, I haven't resigned from this company before.
Them: oh... yeah... I haven't thought of that.
This reminds me of another funny exchange from... almost 10 years back too!
I went to a next door office to look for person X. However, person X wasn't there, only person Y that sits at the neighboring workstation was there.
Me: Is X on leave or just out for meeting or a break?
Y: He's out in a meeting.
Me: Then I'll call him later. What is this extension again?
Y: ..... I don't normally call him on the phone......... so I don't know....
Me: oh, right.
Y: I can let him know you are looking for him though
Me: yes please. I'll also check the directory. Thanks.

And one more story about my ex-boss.
Backstory: He was appointed as the acting GM for the hotel part of our property, and so the Hotel Executive Office gave him an office. It was a pretty nice office, all windows, bright lights, blue skies, and.... biometric access... to go into his office, he had to scan his finger.
By that time, he sort of learned that I'm the type of person who will do even the most mundane tasks (fetching stuff, sewing buttons, bringing glasses to the shop to be fixed, etc), though I was also getting fed up of his shit around the same time.
ex-boss: Hey I need a document from my Hotel office. Go get it.
Me: what document is that?
ex-boss: it's just on the desk by the computer
Me: (holds a industry-size cutter) (slides it upward so you hear the clacking of the cutter) alright, give me your hand.
ex-boss: (startled) what?
Me; you seem to have forgotten it's biometric access. So I need your finger to go up there. Come on, give me your hand.
ex-boss: It's okay, I'm going up myself (skedaddles away)
Me: See you later.
