Get a Room

I was waiting for the elevator to go upstairs to clock in to work. When the doors opened, there was a lady giving a guy a blow job.

What's that Smell?

I was working overtime at my job and I was told which station I would be working from. When I sat down I noticed a bad smell but couldn't figure out what it was. My coworker that was sitting next to me got up and walked away. A few seconds after he left so did the smell.

Unbalanced

I have an office job where I work Monday through Friday. They just started this project where we have to take turns doing a weekend shift. We have to work two days and only get one day in compensation. I'm salary. I don't get overtime.

Laid Out to Dry

My coworker's socks got wet from the rain. She decided to take them off and dry them... in the office.

Late for your own meeting.

Your boss has you set up a meeting. One that is classified as really important. You set up all the things needed to conduct the meeting and invite those who need to attend. However, the one person who is really late to this important meeting is the same person who asked you to set it up. Your boss.

I Need It!!!

A customer found a garment that had cigarette burns and vaginal crust in the crotch area of the pants. I told her that she could ask a cashier to call another store to see if they have it in stock. She said she still wanted it because it was the only one left available in her size and she needed it for costume.

In all fairness... well, nevermind.

I come in generally 10 minutes after 8am, roughly when another 1/3 of our staff gets in. My boss generally comes in 30 minutes after that. However, I am the one getting in trouble and having to take days off without pay because the boss views the rules as things only applying to those under her command and not herself. Her arguments when confronted are completely contradictory. I hope that other place likes my resume.

Cardboard Fort

I came in late to work one day and my co-workers decided to block off my entire cubical with cardboard boxes and left me with a tiny opening I had to crawl through to get inside. Did I mention I'm 6'4"?

What is it that you do anyway?

My coworker has to move her office early because another department apparently really wants it. Building maintenance told her that she has to draw up her own blue prints of her new office space.
She is a news writer. They are building maintenance. Therefore, I have to draw up my coworker's new office blue prints because no one in this entire establishment knows how to do it, including BUILDING MAINTENANCE.

Birthday Present

It was my birthday today and my co-workers decided to hide my keyboard, mouse, mouse pad, notepad, and switch my computer monitors on me.

"You're Fired!"

I came in late to the office one day because I had a doctor's appointment. By the time I showed up for work, my co-workers had post-it noted my entire computer monitor and had written "You're Fired!" in big letters on it.

No help No fun.

Working hard over the weekend for 12 hours with no direction from the boss. Then when its over they say good job, that was hard work. I didn't realize taking credit for other peoples work was that difficult.

"We Kept it Fresh!"

I came back from vacation and my co-workers saran-wrapped every individual item on my desk, as well as saran-wrapped everything to my desk and chair.

Impatient

A customer was trying on garments in the fitting room. Fully dressed, she asked someone to grab her a different size so she can compare. A manager gladly obliged and went looking for the garment.

Minutes passed and the manager had failed to return with the garment. Pacing back and forth in the fitting room, she complained, "It's just right there!" I informed her that if she didn't want to wait, she could grab the garment herself. She scoffed, went out of the fitting room to the first rack to grab the garment and stormed back into her room.
