Another terrible one... We were doing training classes for a new credit card system that we developed. When the credit application was completely filled out, our system would "interrogate" the data to generate a credit score.

I thought the word "interrogate" was funny, so I started into cracking jokes (in my best NAZI GERMAN ACCENT)

"Zo, who are you? How did you get here! Zo, tell us data, ARE YOU A JEW?" -- not thinking about the fact that the company we were at was a well-known Jewish family-owned jewelery company!

Needless to say, I got no laughs, and an ass-chewing from my boss later that day.
