Workplace Etiquette

[Billy Dean]

In my work the toilets have reflective floors and a big gap underneath each cubicle so you can see the reflection of people sitting having a jobbie looking at their phones. I found some secret toilets on a different floor which don’t have this design flaw.

Speaking of work toilets, I hate it when people CBA cleaning up their own skids after they've finished.

Mine is pretty simple - when stuff of yours mysteriously goes missing, usually kichenware. It got to the point in the office (pre-Covid) were I'd literally just keep all of my stuff locked up in my ped at my desk so I at least knew where it was at all times.

Smelly food and disgusting bogs are also big peeves of mine.

Anyone got any good stories for office pranks

Worked in a place where we had about 10-12 in a smallish room, so fair bit of banter / irritations / fall outs etc.

One guy was a bit of a pain, decent lad but wouldn't shut up all day. He was quite often the last one in so we took to regularly tie wrapping the lever on his chair to make it go up and down so he'd sit in it and it would sink. He never checked for some reason so we got him so many times and wasn't impressed at all.

Ate melon for lunch everyday so when he left we chipped and got him a few, wrapped them up in gift wrap.

This really boils my piss, someone at my place was leaving Trap 2 like a kin murder scene, so I put my Sherlock head on in work and basically followed everyone into the bog (admittedly like some kind of wrongun) I narrowed it down to 2 dirty animals and after another week I had the culprit!! I gotta bog brush and stuck it in a wine gift bag, with a note 'you've been identified as the phantom toilet pebble dasher, the toilet cleaning fairy has resigned, so clean up ya Shyte!!' This thankfully worked, however I'm not afraid to go to such lengths again in my quest for clean sanitation for all !!

This sounds great, it would be like playing the crystal maze every lunchtime.

Guy in my office, must have done nights, I'd come in at 6.30am and he'd be scranning a doner kebab with garlic mayo

Hero.

Used to work with a fella, who’d bring in cold tripe,? microwave it and eat it at his desk.

He could clear an office in seconds.

He also ate pickled pigs trotters in vinegar.

The slurping noises he made, was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard.

If he worked overtime, he’d always get a pie dinner, which he’d also eat at his desk.

Needless to say, he went on to develop type 2 diabetes lol

He sounds like some sort of hell demon.

Eat with your mouth shut.

I don't want to hear "smlapch fllsppp slpp"

Nothing worse than mingebags in the workplace. The other week some fella left and about 15 of us went for a farewell meal in Flanagans on Mathew Street, after the meal the fella goes 'Im paying for everyone's meal', nice gesture but myself and a few other of the low paid staff insisted that he was not paying for our meal and threw £20 each on the table, I then turned round and to my horror senior staff who are on 80/100k a year where running to the exit like speedy gonzales and actually let the poor fella pick up a good portion of the bill, absolutely disgraceful behaviour tbh.

He was a horrible horrible person.

We used to work next to a Catholic Social club, that regularly held wakes in there and he`d " invite " himself in and stuff his face on the buffet, with no shame whatsoever.

I get angry, just thinking about him.

Someone at work had taken to stealing food and drinks out of other peoples bags a year or 2 back.

The site I work at is quite big and has around 130+ people on site at any time.
We have this huge bank of fridges in the canteen are where people store their food and this is where it was going missing from.

I only had a couple of cans of coke taken out of my bag, but a friend of mine had his scran nicked on a couple of occasions.
Once they had his bowl of scouse off, cleaned the container it was in (!!!!) and put it back in his bag lol

Sick of it by this point, he bought a tin of cat food, spread it on some sandwiches, wrapped them in cling film and left them in his bag.

They were taken a couple of days later. Strangely enough nothing went missing again after that

Used to work in a building and I swear one fella's anoos must have been half way up his back.
He shat up the wall on more than one occasion.

I find this highly amusing particularly when it looks I've had a week long binge on nothing but vindaloo

Boarding a coach fir a pupil field trip ... I always immediately opened my deliberately chosen box of egg sandwiches.

Small acts of revenge over the little horrors were always the sweetest.

A curtesy flush at half time stops the connected hallway smelling of your colons mid morning spoils.
