When I used to work in the special projects divisions of a large international company:

Project:
PowerPoint presentation to be used for end of year report for the top dogs at the firm. (Each section was created for a different VP)

VP:
Hands me a blank piece of paper. "I need this chart put into the PowerPoint presentation tonight."

Me:
It's a blank page.

VP:
Of course it is. The information on that chart is confidential!

(I don't know why he bothered to hand me a blank piece of paper...I was very tempted to put a page into his section of the PP presentation with the words - confidential chart to go here).
