     Work; the thing we do in exchange for money. Sometimes work can be fun. Do you have fun at work? Sometimes work can be fulfilling. Is your job fulfilling? However, there is one thing that usually makes or breaks the enjoyment of your occupation; other people. Nine times out of ten the other people you meet at your job are terrible and suck any enjoyment out of the room. Is Cheryl from HR a bitch? How so? Is Greg always unreliable? How come? Did Pat screw you over to look good in front of the boss? Did you get revenge? Please share stories of how the grown, mature adults you work with can act like the most churlish of children and perhaps together we can come to a greater understanding of the human condition.

I am the boss of my office and I foster a crew with high morale and they better have my coffee made in the morning and my trash taken out at night. I have a swivel mount shotgun under my desk. No drama at all ( no women either).

I got promoted to management and hate it and wish I kept my old job. Humans are the worst. I should've became a pet groomer.

Here's my recent workplace drama. This is as bad as it gets around here, pretty nice place to workHR Person posted:REDACTED – it has come to our attention that on many occasions in the last few weeks, an employee has gone to one of our 4 refrigerators to grab his/her personal food only to discover that his/her food has been taken. On a few of these occasions, the food was half eaten and put back in the refrigerator. Unfortunately, this behavior does not support our REDACTED value of Integrity. Please respect your fellow colleagues and their property. Some poor sap posted:Sorry about that. Won’t do it again. Big BossMan posted:All-I find it unfortunate enough that REDACTED had to send this email in the first place. It is equally unfortunate that the response below was an attempt at a joke by someone who used a colleague’s computer when that colleague left their desk. That type of conduct is not permitted.

I don't know, i don't really talk to anyone here. i guess some people don't like each other? Everyone in the department next to me talks poo poo about whatever person gets up and leaves almost immediately.

Something I've observed in every place I've worked is that the less that a tier of employees is getting paid and the less room for advancement there is in the position, the more bitchy and backstabby they will be toward each other. Real Housewives has nothing on call center hens.

At a previous job they "ran out of money" so they stopped paying everybody except for upper management - they didn't lay us off, they just wanted us to work for free. Fortunately the CEO was rich so we were all able to sue him for back pay.

What's the etiquette on cucking coworkers? This guy I work with keeps badgering me about boning his wife, but I've been putting it off because I don't want this to blow up in my face, and next thing I know I'm sitting in the conference room with HR. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Let me tell you about a certain coworker of mine named Ray, who was a dim witted, drunken rear end in a top hat from philly. -Claimed to have been to Spain, but he was hammered the entire time so he didn't remember any of it. -Claimed to be able to "sober up" by simply doing pushups and splashing his face with water. Later openly admitted to drinking in the morning before coming into to work. -Knocked over a couple filing cabinets by doing arm exercises off of them. When confronted with what he had done his response was "I thought that would happen, I shouldn't have supermaned it." -Randomly mentioned he threw out it his back loving a fat chick. -Stated that sometimes he thought he could see the future, but at the same time kind of doubted it because one time he crashed his bike into the side of a bus as it was making a corner. -Had another bike accident in which he ran over someone. The guy was hospitalized, but Ray said it only happened because the guy was a fag. -Would eat yogurt mixed with onion, garlic, and various spices . -Also thought the yogurt dish along with greek salads were appropriate car food. -Would loudly slurp down fruit punch from a gallon container, head tilted back, as you drove down the interstate. -Once ray was walking outside while the birds were singing. He loudly exclaimed. "shut up birds". The birds immediately silenced themselves and ray happily stated "I like obedient birds" . -Decided that urinating in an open field directly across from a shopping center, whilst standing next to a company vehicle complete with logo, was a wiser idea than waiting five minutes and using the restroom at the next jobsite. -Again refused to wait till arriving at jobsite to use restroom. Without prior warning he jumped out of the vehicle while waiting at a railroad crossing and ran to a nearby burger king. -Claimed he only wrecked his car, because after doing so many pushups the previous day, his arms were too tired to turn the wheel, -While waiting for security clearance inside a sky scrapper loading dock, Ray thought it would perfectly fine to talk about terrorism and that security wouldn't mind if he cracked open his hard boiled eggs on the edge of their desks.
