Weird people you've worked with

TheBastard · 04-02-2010 11:09PM #1

ok so we all have worked with them.... the liars, the Alcoholics, The back stabbers, The rude, The strange, and.... well you get the idea! Anybody got good stories about them?

Me i've worked with all the above, But the strangest guy i worked with was pretty much all off the above! One time he cried because the photocopier wasnt working, he wouldnt go out in the rain, but complained when it was too hot and sunny. he had an image in his head he was Brad Pitt and he was the funniest and coolest person in the company, in reality he was Jabba the Hutt with a bad attitude! thrashed the place when his computer wouldnt work and went home crying- sometimes i wanted to watch him with popcorn and a coke!

Fat Prick:)

i posted this in another thread a few days ago:

i remember a few years ago a guy from work called into my place one evening, uninvited, but i asked him in and we were having coffee.

he said he needed to go to the loo, so went upstairs.

i heard him flush the loo and then unlock the door, but he didnt come downstairs straightaway (even though the loo was the first door upstairs)

i went to investigate and found him coming out of my bedroom stuffing a pair of my (lacy frilly black) knickers into his pocket

as you can imagine, meeting him the next day at work was a bit awkward!

A moaning, complaining, misanthropic old cow... She hated everyone and never had a good word to say about anyone. And I thought I was bad...

More worryingly, I thought you were a guy all along! It only just occured to me Sam is a unisex name!

so funny!! I used to work with a girl who cycled 15 miles to work and then didnt have a shower all day and used to take her shoes off under the desk! O the smell!!! Another girl used to smell so bad that no one wanted to sit with her. She eventually left. Everyone wondered how she had a boyfriend! Another fella wrote a short story and left it in his notebook when he left the company but we still have it to this day... Its called 'last of the great warriors'...he's in it himself and he talks himself up to the heavens!!! I now work with a lovely bunch of clean unsmelly friendly people!!!

He deserved it- tried to make my life hell! he was a bully. I dont judge people on looks and laugh at them- this guy was just a wanker.

How the hell did he try and explain that???

scudzilla · 05-02-2010 12:21AM

About 12 years ago i was working in a factory in North Wales, during 1 break we sat in the canteen having a brew and a smoke (them were the days).

There was a guy called Reg, very quiet, bit of a wierdo, just lived wit his 3 dogs, he just said "Do you know that if you put Pedigree Chum on your balls a dog will lick it off" The guy was deadly serious, fcukin freak

fryup · 05-02-2010 12:37AM

Don't mind the weirdos too much, generally speaking they're just sad & lonely people who lack social skills.

Its the sneaky two faced f&ckers i can't stand, the ones that smile to your face but are only to happy to bitch behind your back..those are the types you have to look out for, and god knows this country is full of them.

Kirnsy · 05-02-2010 12:41AM

Yeah fryup i know exactly what you mean......

you arrogant ****
:P

How are we full of them compared to everywhere else lol

I agree though the smiley two faced ones watch out for rather than the weirdos,although in saying that what about our famous bus driver.So i would say walk with back against wall for all above.

Was working in woodies DIY for about 6 months then a new guy started, quiet, not much to say. But one day at lunch in the canteen 4 or 5 of us including him were sitting at the table eating (this was around 2005 btw) so the topic of conversation was Muslim extremists and he hadnt said a word throughout lunch (as usual). So im sitting there munching away and someone said something about the extremists in pakistan or something and i gave my opinion that "theyre all sc*m, they should just bomb the sh*t out of all the extremists over there" (yes im not very educated in the subject and i might have been a bit harsh but noone cared)...EXCEPT THIS GUY!

He stood up and started screaming at the top of his lungs to TAKE THAT BACK YOU "VILE CNUT" TAKE IT BACK PAKISTAN IS A HINDU NATION PAKISTAN IS A HINDU NATION YOUR ALL PIECES OF SH*T ROTTEN KNACKERS!!!! He was red in the face and nearly crying with exhaustion and continued to scream abuse at everyone in the canteen, the guards were called and removed him, havent seen him since. Some people in the canteen were legitimately scared of what was coming next when he started to scream.

Proper mad fcuker.

There was a scientologist in my job about a year ago. She turned up to a co-workers house party wearing a wedding dress :eek:

I sh1t you not.

anucksunamun · 05-02-2010 03:43AM

I was trapped in a very small room with this guy who farted all the f*cking time, and he stunk, but one day he went horrendously red and ran to the bathroom.. shortly after he went home 'sick' and for about two weeks after he never looked me in the eye, farted or sharted!

The girl who used to use peoples make-up that had been left behind in our cloakroom.. (and someone had spat in it..)

The phantom lunch stealer from the canteen, we all knew who did it, and constantly asked them not to... to no avail...

The conceited ass who started every sentence with 'Well actually...' or 'your wrong there' and ONLY spoke to disagree with everyone else..

And lastly the pervy manager who always showed up whenever anyone had to bend over! and put all our keys in the bottom drawer of her desk so she'd get a good look at the cleavage.. and insisted the proper way to clean under our desks was get right under there on our hands and knees.. and only ever told the girls to clean under the desk!

i worked with a convicted pedophile once.

Seriously, didnt find out till weeks ever....

though the naked hugs kinda gave it away, i just thougth he was german...

but Seriously i did...

Weird or wha ?!

pajodublin · 05-02-2010 03:59AM

used to work in a printing factory in coolock many moons ago
was a foreign fella working there. not 100% sure where he was from. (german or austrian or somewhere around there)

Was very very quiet and only talked when he needed something.
He lived in a 1 room (studio) apartment. had no tv just a radio and a few books. (so he told us)

He carried a briefcase for his lunch.

One day, someone said something to him and he went ****ing mental. he pushed over a loads of shelves. After he calmed down he apologised to everyone and started cleaning up

After clearing it all he was called into the office and you could hear him crying and apologising and basically begging for his job.

He was fired and he came out and got his coat and briefcase and no one seen him again

Felt really sorry for him. The fella that wound him up was a prick anyway.

Red_Marauder · 05-02-2010 04:03AM

I worked with an extremely paranoid German rider who in fairness was particularly gifted. But he insisted that nobody watch him working his animals - because it amounted to stealing his methods - although we could pay for the benefit of a demonstration.

He had a voice just like Dr Evil and the only music he seemed to listen to were star wars tunes. Still, work would have been far more boring without him. You need people like that far more than you need dull people imo.

Sea Sharp · 05-02-2010 05:08AM

She didn't give a proper explanation.

It was like:

"Ah personX, I see you're wearing a wedding dress"
"Yes I am. I wanted to wear it"

She was dozy and her English wasn't the best.
It was overwhelming.

Please tell me he was given replacements and told "I bring a gift: these two droids".

I worked with a guy who was pushing 40 and still living with his mother.

He hadn't been out with a woman in years, so any time he would be around one he would make a complete tit of himself and completely creep them out.
It was kind of sad really.

One of his favourite questions to ask was ''If you were faced with a life or death situation and had to have sex with a man, would you give it or take it?''.

He was quite the oddball, good for the odd laugh, but if you have to spend that many hours working with someone, it's a bit much.

I worked in a large open plan office a few years ago that the company had broken up with screens that where just a bit higher then monitor height dividing the office into smaller areas and cubicles. I was in a little area with about 4 other people who all worked on the same projects as me.

There was one of the guys in our office who had his own little cubical. He was a really quiet guy who would only ever say hello and goodnight to anyone and on the rare occasions when he felt obligated to go to a leaving drinks would just sit there and say noting or respond with one word answers if you asked him anything. In the office anytime anyone laughed or if few of us would have a conversation he would always stand up from his desk popping up over the screen and look around, he would say nothing then disappear again back behind his desk. We started calling him the Meerkat because it was exactly what he looked like. It became a game in the office to see who could get him to pop up the most. Very odd man.
