Weirdest thing you've seen at work?

I didn’t see this, but heard about it. Goofiest dude I’ve probably seen in my building - guy doesn’t understand or respect boundaries. Very overbearing. Any-whoo - a group of people are talking about the weather, and they’re acquaintances with this guy (know him, work in same department) are standing around in a hallway talking about the weather - one of them commented that it was getting hot in here. This dude must have thought they said it was getting hot in huRR, because he started singing that nelly song and literally took his shirt off and began swinging it around. Now I know what you’re thinking - you’re probably thinking what I was thinking when I heard this - he had some sort of under garment on, perhaps a t-shirt, maybe v-neck, maybe at least a wife beater or a tank top or something - - - no - this dude had nothing on - he literally stripped in the hallway and then just walked away. I didn’t believe it, but it was coroberated (SP) by 3 reliable sources. That’s the kind of guys with the balls and lack of brains, that if he comes walking in with a trench coat and a scowl on, you let him know you’re on his side and you roll with him.

^Hahahaha Touching upon the restroom problems… My firm transitioned into automatic toilet flushers, but some of the women were not able to adjust. So, at first, the toilets weren’t timed properly so it would flush too early. People who had half a brain saw the manual flush, but the other half did not, so there would be leftovers. I won’t get too graphic, but imagine it having the deadliest combination of grossness, compounded by the fact that women also have monthly cycles. Hope you have a good dinner after you read this post. Haha

^Lol. D@mn! I was about eating a snack! (strawberries) … I think I’ll wait another 30 min.

Some of my co-workers do not wash hands after using the restroom, and will grab a snack after it. They may find me weird that I don’t like other people to touch my keyboard/mouse.

People take stuff to read to the restrooms. Its fine if you do it at home but when you bring your reading material back into the office after doing your business thats just not cool.

While at WaMu there was a dwarf who had phone $ex with his GF from under his desk at lunch.

A strange thing happened last weekend, not while I was at work but when I was at the movies. Now, most of you that know me on the forum probably think I’m a pretty serious guy – and although I’m pretty focused and try to be on point, anyone that knows me personally can tell you I’m always up for a good laugh…even if it means at my own expense. Anyway, as my girlfriend and I arrived at the theater, we saw that it was selling full-priced movie tickets for $10.00 and student tickets for $7.00. I’m not a student yet, but seeing as how I will be soon, I pretty much consider myself a student now. Mostly, I just wanted the student discount. However, I didn’t have a student ID of any kind, so what was I to do? Anyway, as I was waiting in line, I noticed some guy wearing Fubu jeans and thought to myself, “Wow, I haven’t seen *anyone* wear these things in years. Amazing.” A couple minutes later, I got to the ticket booth and asked for two student tickets. The lady asked me what school we were from. I told her we were MBA students at Fubu University. She looked somewhat confused at first, but otherwise nodded at us in approval as if she knew all about Fubu University. The only person more confused than the ticket lady was myself…however, at least I had great peace of mind knowing that I just obtained discounted movie tickets thanks to my enrollment at Fubu University. Nice to know that my “school” gets as much recognition as UoP and DeVry.

You sold your top 2 school out for $3?

Well it was actually $6 because we got a discount on the girlfriend’s ticket too.

I was looking for a template in Excel for a particular calculation and came across a spreadsheet with a worksheet tab named “ohshitcopy”

kid you not. i work with quite a few women in the office. of course, they like to gossip and share stories. there was a vietnamese woman who worked on the other end of our floor. my cubemate, who is a female, would always mention she never liked being in the bathroom at the same time as her and would specifically time her breaks to not coincied with the vietnamese woman. never gave it much thought until one day my cubemate came back to the cube freaked out. i asked why and it took a little goading before she responded with this: " (vietnamese woman) was in the bathroom, not in a stall, wall sitting her period blood onto the ground." and another gem i was told after only a few days with the company: before any of my current employees worked here, supposedly a russian woman was just starting work at our company. someone walked into the bathroom and saw she had fallen on the ground and tried to go into the stall to help her up. turns out the russian was trying to stand on the toilet seat to use the restroom and her foot slipped and she broke her ankle. crazy things happen at my work.

at my last job, i was told that they found out that a former employee had been a pr0n star. another thing that happened. Someone on the desk got an email from another colleague who I guess had been pestering her for a lot of information, and as he signed off, he meant to write “Sorry for the inconvenience.” However, he misspelled it and must have used spellcheck (it was a default on outlook there). try it! see what happens if you write “sorry for the inconience” he sent it out without proofing and we laughed about this for a long time… it became an office catchphrase.
