Yup, you guessed it!
This is where you tell people about your coworkers.
Be the story funny, stupid, 'wtf', or if you're merely venting.

Last friday a coworker of mine was grumpy. I'm pretty sure it was because he kept having to do pasta. Anyway, after an hour of complaining, he punches the freezer - leaving an impression. Why? Well, we asked him. His reply was "I dunno. Because?"
Ten minutes later the rest of my coworkers began yelling at each other as if they were angry, but were just holding normal conversations. rolleyes

wow, stupid co-workers I'll have to think about this one for a while.
anyway, here's a short and sweet one for ya.
A Co-worker and fellow member of the waitstaff is pouring a bowl of soup. he grabs a saucer but fails to acctually grab a bowl. Not really noticing he pours the soup into his non-existant bowl onto the saucer and onto his arm burning the hell out of himself. I couldn't help but laugh.

lol, poor guy though, that had to be incredibly painful.
hmm, older story:
One summer I was working as a lifeguard at a waterpark and there was this one guy there who was really annoying. He thought he was better than everyone else because he was a junior EMT.
One day he had to climb between a couple ropes to get out of one of the back area... Tripped and fell flat on his face. Then he was absolutely sure his arm was broken so they rushed him off the the hospital. Came back an hour later with his arm in a sling, not because it was broken, oh no, but because he had a 'contusion'.
rolleyes he spent two weeks wearing that sling because of one tiny little bruise.

heres a funny story of my own here.
okay some lady took the lid off her kids cup and he dumped his drink all over the floor. so i go to mop it up. Sounds easy enough right? So i'm cleaning it up and I get done as I start to walk away and I slip on a piece of ice that got lodged in my boot treads and i fell right on my a** bruising my tailbone. Embarassing indeed.

There is a guy in my new department named CAM (that may or may not be his real name... I feel like being mysterious). Anyway, yesterday an email went out telling everyone not to touch the biscuits in the Corporate Kitchen, as those were for the client's reps & anyway, only managers are allowed in there.
So, of course, everyone started with the "Oh, you should've told me about the biscuits before I went on my break, ha ha ha!" but not Cam... Cam resolved to get one of those biscuits.
Anyway, end of the day, Cam comes back triumphantly carrying a chocolate biscuit & looking incredibly proud of himself.
But does he eat the trophy biscuit? NO! Instead he grabs some sticky-tape & tapes it to his computer...
Today (yes, the biscuit is still there) he was logged into a system for which every team/department has a different login & password. Anyway, the password expires, so instead of going to our manager & telling her it needs changing... Cam changes it himself... to "Camrocks1".
Yeah.
As a sidenote, he looks awfully like Red_Angels' (aka Bubsy as I call her) boyfriend T... which is strange...

Uggg, I went to work this morning to get some breakfast before school started. I ordered the new steak and egg breakfast burito. It comes with pepper jack cheese and fresh salsa. I ordered it with out the salsa and pepper jack. The cook, who I dont know, put pepperjack cheese on it. I didn't notice until I got to school and realized there was cheese. I was like "wtf, no wonder its so freaken hot" I was a tad pissed off. But oh well, Im glad I ordered a cartan of milk too.

So yesterday, we had a team meeting. Some quotes:
Louise (manager): "So, does anyone have any OH&S issues that they would like to bring up?"
Cam: "Yeah, you've started smoking again & it's really retarded."
It was then decided that because Louise smokes outside, this is not an OH&S issue.
Guest speaker from another team gives a really long speach about why we should submit "Change Requests" (just a thing we're meant to do).
Louise: (to Matt, my trainer who was taking minutes) "Matt, did you get all that?"
Matt: (reads) "'Submit Change Requests'... Yep!"
More later...

So today, we farewelled a lady from our team who was notorious for being loud (but she decided that me & a couple of the others would be really bad "when (we) start getting cliquey(sp?)").
Anyway, she's also notorious for not logging in & out of her phone... apparantly she always gets distracted & forgets (we have to log in every time we start a shift & when we come back from breaks & log out when we finish/leave for breaks).
So, anyway, she finishes her last shift & gathers all her stuff after signing out & starts heading towards the door... we all yell our goodbyes (which we shouldn't, being in a call centre & all) & then Cam jokingly yells: "Did you remember to log out of your phone?"
Her: " eek Oh s**t!" *runs back, logs out, leaves again*.
Everyone: rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl
