He's two raisins short of a fruitcake.
Having him show up is like having 2 good men call in sick!
A Forest Killer - Somebody's who's able to produce paper, but no answers.
He must have donated his brain to science before he was done using it.
Not only is he not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but he is the spoon in the knife drawer.
Her staircase doesnt go all the way to the top floor.
She has two speeds...slow and stop!
Did he have an extra cup of stupid this morning?
If you gave him a penny for his thoughts, you’d get change.
Results of a performance review: "I thought this guy's performance had reached rock bottom, but then he started to dig."
The wheel's spinning but the hamster's dead.
I've heard of people having an inferiority complex, but in your case it isn't a complex.
Not only does his elevator not go to the top, but the cable's broken.
A "file cabinet wearing a dress" is the way one of our members described one particularly "unbusy" woman.
And in an Information Systems department, one of our members had a term they used for clueless users with silly complaints. They'd call them:
ID ten T errors (ID10T – better spelled IDIOT!)

never heard anybody use any of those terms at work, but then I was never one to listen to the gossip going on at the office any way.

At the Russian War College, the general is a guest lecturer and tells
the class of officers that the session will focus on potential problems
and the resulting strategies.
One of the officers in the class begins by asking the first question,
"Will we have to fight a World War Three?"
"Yes, comrades, looks like you will," answers the general.
"And who will be our enemy, Comrade General?" another officer asks.
"The likelihood is that it will be China."
The class looks alarmed, and finally one officer asks, "But Comrade
General, we are 150 million people and they are about 1.5 billion.
How can we possibly win?"
"Well," replies the general, "Think about it. In modern war, it is
not the quantity, but the quality that is the key. For example, in the
Middle East, 5 million Jews fight against 50 million Arabs, and the Jews
have been the winners every time."
"But sir," asks the panicky officer, "Do we have enough jews"?

In my old office, we just referred to the non-worker as a slacker, and the boss's best friend. I don't think we ever referred to her as anything else. Oh yeah, we did....brown noser.

I personally like the last one. Idiot. People who don't pull their fair share annoy me. I guess simply because I work so hard and pull my fair share.
