why are idiots idiots?

this just in this morning:

[Scene: CPA]

Foreign BG in Car: Hi, I'm here to see the Chief Signal Officer

National Slave Serviceman: Hold on, Sir, let me check my list.

[NS proceeds to flip through the official list, but does not find FBiC's name or vehicle number in it]

NS: Sir, I'm afraid I do not have your name on this list, please hold on while I contact the guardroom.

NS (on radio): Guardroom, this is CPA. I have here a FBiC in vehicle XXXX who claims that he is going to see Chief Signal Officer.

Guardroom: Wait out.

[Guardroom proceeds to check the computer list for FBiC's details]

Guardroom: CPA, there is no repeat no email about FBiC's visit today. Please verify with him]

NS: Sir, they are not expecting your vehicle today. Can you please check?

FBiC: I've been told that the Officer in Attendance has already cleared my vehicle for entry and is waiting for me.

NS: Guardroom, the FBiC claims that he is cleared.

Guardroom: Please ask the FBiC to come to the GR while we verify his claims.

NS: Guardroom, The FBiC refuses to go to the Guardroom, and says that if he is not allowed to go in he will drive straight back.

Guardroom: We still do not have any indication that this guest is expected. Please inform FBiG that CSO does not live work here.

[FBiG then proceeds to drive away, but instead of drivin off he circles the area twice before returning to NS]

FBiG: I've just telephoned the OiA, and he is very sure that my vehicle is cleared for entry.

NS: Sir, the Guardroom is sure that neither you nor your vehicle is expected here today.

FBiG: ....... Oops I'm supposed to be at another camp.

NS: ~!@#$%^&*()

Guardroom: ~!@#$%^&*()
