your such a “bozo”

An incompetent person, especially in new companies. Bozos have a net negative effect on morale and profits, and everyone knows it.
I first heard this specific meaning of "bozo" during a talk to business students by one of Yahoo's founders.

A mistake or rule broken.
Made famous by Bozo the Clown.
Usually made by a child but sounds funny when you tell an adult they made one.
From an urban legend that is supposedly an episode of the old Bozo kids TV show when a cub scout was playing the spoons game:
Trying to hit one spoon and pop the other spoon lying on top of it into the empty glass for a prize (no one hardly ever won that game cuz it was so hard!). Well...the cub scout lost and said "GOD DAMN I MISSED!" Bozo then stated "That's a Bozo no-no!"...the cub scout stuck out his middle finger at Bozo and said "CRAM IT CLOWNY!!"
Everyone my age has heard of this but no one has ever seen it...thus an urban legend.

Any person trying to occupy the same space as me at the same time. Often applied to other drivers and downhill skiers.
Inspired by TV police dispatchers saying, "See the citizen at First and Main" when they would rather say, "See the bozo at first and main." Then applied to skiers, then to everyone.
Often shortened to BZ.

That bozo stole my parking space!
Get out of the way, you bozo!

Originating in the SW United States in the mid 1920s, the term "bozo" is short for "bogus Zorro," probably in response to the fact that, due to the initial popularity of the Zorro character who first appeared in 1919, a large enough number of klutzy imposters came out of the woodwork to merit the creation of a new word.
Look, Bruce! That bozo just chopped off his own toe with his sword because he was running around with his mask on backwards!
Don't these bozos know the Spanish left 100 years ago?!
