Courtesy of a former Sergeant in the Royal Marines, a co-worker back in the 80s:

"as organized as a box of frogs"

"he couldn't lead a drunk to a piss-up in a brewery"

And we shouldn't forget this one, supposedly from a collection of actual officer evaluations:

"This officer's continued service in the Royal Navy is depriving a village somewhere of its idiot."

The Brits have turned this type of expression into an art form.

One of my favourites is "As useful as a chocolate tea pot" or alternatively "As useful as a chocolate fireguard".

Another I fortunately one never had to use in a performance review: "Hit rock bottom last year and has started digging since"

I read a quote once from Sam Clemens. He had been invited to a funeral of someone he didn't like.

His response was: "I am unable to attend but I wholeheartedly approve of the event."

A robot programmer I work with is proud of his one liner.  When asked by a manager "what happens if I push this button?" He didn't hesitate in responding "Your nose starts to bleed..."
