I can't think of any for myself, so I'm gonna tell on a former co-worker. She was an older, petite, very country, Christian lady. Our boss liked to say things just to get a reaction out of his employees. So one day he said something, and she was trying to say that he was being insensitive, but she didn't have the best vocabulary, so she ended up saying "Oh, Rod, you just don't have a heart on." And of course, with her accent, you can imagine what it sounded like. Coming from her mouth, we all just about died laughing.

It's a good thing the boss is out today!! I'd be in BIIIIIG trouble for laughing so much!!
Another good one, this one is about my former boss and one of the cooks (I worked in catering at the time). So anyway, one day, purely joking, the cook comes in and my boss said "Yvonne, I'm gonna jack you up." (meaning, I'm gonna beat you up, joking of course.) And the cook was like almost 70, and she said back "Valerie, I'm gonna jack you off." After a few seconds, she realized what she said, and turned beet red. That was the running joke for the next year.
