A few years ago, I had a boss that was a total jerk, at the time, I was
working in a mail room and lifting boxes and moving huge mail carts around,
well finally it caught up me and I developed a bad case of tendonitis and
this jerk had to audacity to say to me infront of 4 other people, that I
should be sitting behind a desk, that lifting boxes was a manīs job. :eek:
I told him, maybe if he was willing to pay me more I would sit behind a
desk all day. ____________________

The NERVE! That man is BEGGIN for a lawsuit, witnesses and EVERYTHING.
Should have told him that the only part of a woman that has a "place" is
her FOOT. Itīs "place" being straight up his hairy ass.
Then offer a demonstration.
Blame it on PMS. A woman got off in court on an assault (murder?) charge
on account of PMS. All she had to do was take mood regulation medication
around "that time of the month".
Okay, Iīve had my first couple idiots surface.
This chick calls up...I really think it may have been a prank...Imagine a
dipsy voice on the end of the phone.
"Thank you for calling **** this is **** how may I help you?"
*silence*
"hello?"
"OH! Um, hi, like oh um hey do you have uh...slipknot?"
"the cd?"
"yeah, that one, um yeah I heard this really really rad song on MTV2 and I
wanna find it what ones do you have?"
I walk over to our cdīs and tell her...the full length LP and some
singles.
"Oh K, um, what one do you think I should get"
"well, since the other two are singles you should probably get the Iowa
full length cd..prolly have what youīre looking for on it"
"OOOOO cool hey is there an abercrombie in the mall?"
"yes, a few stores down."
"ooOOOO cool hey could you run down there for me and put some things on
hold for me?"
"No. I work at *** not abercrombie, youīre welcome to call them and THEIR
employees will do it for you."
*snotty voice* "OH"
"is that it?"
*snotty voice* "Yeah"
"Alright then goodbye"
and hung up.
The other was some hairy bastard in an awful mood that walked in, and when
I greeted him he GRUNTED at me.
"Did you hear about the sale weīre running? Itīs really gre...."
"DONīT CARE"
"WELL SIR THATīS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS IF YOU NEED ANY HELP PLEASE ASK
SOMEONE ELSE, K?? JUST YOU HOLLER, YA HEAR?"
Fucker. Hairy fucker. YEAH YA BASTARD I DONīT ASK HOW YOU ARE AND SAY HI
īCAUSE I CARE THEY PAY ME RETARD YOU DONīT HAFTA BE A DICK!!!

Well this was just one of my stories with this jerk...there are
others...but I did play a small role with him getting fired, although,
there were several women through out the company, in different departments
that had filed complaints about him, I was just one them. And thereīs no
doubt in my mind that this loser is somewhere else doing the exact same
thing. ____________________

Time once again for another tale of human stupidity (and in this case
drunkenness) from the theatre. I was working in the box office one night
and I hear this guy out by the posters start yelling at a group of people
about how by virtue of the fact that he was raised in a certain area of
town he has the ability to kick their collective asses. A few intervenin
employees and a bit of eavesdropping later reveals that this guy had gone
up to a group of girls and asked to see a movie with them. When they
declined, he asked the same thing of the group of guys he had been yelling
at, who then said various things to the effect of "Leave us the fuck
alone". A bit later the guy comes up two me and wants to buy a ticket with
$1.17. Tickets at that particular hour were $2.00. I tell him this and he
says "Oh I thouht they were $1.25". He then turns to the people behind him
and asks for 50 cents. Seeing he still doesnt have enough money the guy
behind him agitatedly gives me another dollar and I give him the extra
change back. About 20 minutes later the guy is escorted out by the cops for
public drunkenness.
Another one. About halfway through fall quarter I went home for the
weekend. I was talking to the new guy there and some guy walked out of a
movie with a big carrier full of popcorn bags, drink cups, etc, stopped a
little bit behind the new guys peripheral vision, looked at him for a
moment, then set his carrier down on the counter, trash and all, and walked
out. ____________________ l33t is the bastard cousin of contractions. |

I worked at a rather large movie theatre up until a month ago. Not only did
we have cameras everywhere, but the ushers knew what to look for in darkned
theatres. Usually, couples who are making out are ignored, as long as it
isn't extreme. Anything that involves the strategic readjustment of
clothing is immediatley escorted away.
A few months ago, one of the managers came back to the little dungeon where
I worked and said something about a 30 something man fucking up a 17 year
old kid. My supervisor and I thought it was yet another parking lot fight.
We were talking to our security gaurd later, and he said no, it was a 30
something man FUCKING a 17 year old. Not just any 17 year old, a 17 year
old boy, in a full auditorium.
Not only did he manage to take advantage of this young man at a really bad
time in his life (I got a lot of details) but he also made bail 24 hours
later. ____________________ Okay, dazzle me. |

I've been working as a teacher for about three years now, and I've worked
with students from 3years old to 18 years old, and have taught several
adult and parenting classes as well on top of that. I'm currently teaching
English in Korea. One of my co-workers, is a real numbnut. He is
continually bad mouthig me to my boss and the other teachers. Toss on top
of this that he has a problem drinking (a big problem) and running his
mouth about me.
For the most part I don't care as he is QUITTING his job to return to the
states and become a lawyer. He had a christmas party at which he drank
almost an entire bottle of someone else's whisky by himself (Whisky is 80 a
pint in korea) and then started to insult me so I left. After I left, he
apparently leaned over drunkly to my boss and said "You love S- to much,
you need to love me too." My boss related this story to me when he gave me
a raise and a promotion. I was still annoyed.
Working with kids is great though, cause you get all kinds of funny stories
and stupid shit kids do, and boy there is so much. My favorite is when the
students come back to class with food. They know they are not allowed to
eat in class but they insist. So I tell them the need to through whatever
it is away, to which they respond by stuffing the entire thing into their
mouths. Thank god I know the hemlich(sic) manuever. Heh. ____________________ It's like kegel exercises for your throat.~Monolycus |

Oh no, they pull out soda cups that still have pop and DRINK OUT OF
THEM.
I watched ONE guy pull out a half eaten icecream cone and go to town.
and then they'll walk right up next to you and start rifling around in the
cig trays, grab a handfull of half smoked ones and light up and try to talk
to you.
Uhm...EW IS RIGHT.
OH god there was this mallrat kid in the store the other day...you know,
typical slipknot giant pants and bad makeup type kid. Walks up to one of
my sales associates and says
"I look like I should work here more than you do"
She thinks, turns to him and blurts out
"I bet i have more tattoos than you do"
*sullen look* "I don't have any"
"Well there you go."
She told me this and I LAUGHED my ass off.....I was like GO GIRL!!!

Oh god I know, I died when she told me that.
Here was this kid, trying SO very hard to be EvIl, sPoOkY, and MeAn
looking, thinking HE deserves to work there based on appearance, and then
there she is, a little mite of a thing, about my height but 105lbs, short
red hair, freckles....
and she's a drummer in a hardcore band *lol* with more tattoos than this
kid could ever hope for, tougher than this kid could ever hope to be, and
in such a TOTALLY unassuming package. It still makes me laugh! ____________________ Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas. |

That reminds me. We only had one person (that we know of) digging up large
popcorns, but one time a manager left his own cup sitting out somewhere and
someone came up to the concession stand with his cup and asked for a
refill.
Every so often the color of our popcorn bags changes. One night this guy
comes up with a large popcorn bag wanting his refill. You can only get your
refill on the same day of purchase. Our bags had been yellow since we
started giving refills on large popcorns. The guys bag was green. We told
him this, but he didn't seem to understand. I think it was the health code
part he was getting lost on. ____________________ l33t is the bastard cousin of contractions. |

OH god yes it does. My favorite line is "don't you know who I AM?!" Well
if I DID or if I CARED then you wouldn't have to ASK.
Once in a while we have celebrity "encounters" at work (we tend to get a
lot of musicians shoping at our store...not mine perse, but the company in
general) and this one time Red Man walks in, gets some stuff, and CUTS IN
LINE. Our lead sales at the time said "hey, man, the line starts back
there". The guy gives him this look at goes "HEY man don't know know who I
AM?" and he says "yes, yes I do, you're Red Man and you're cutting. The
line starts back there". He gets all grumpy and goes to the back, and then
Method Man walks in and the lead sales goes "hey man! What's up?" and Red
Man yells (from the back of the line) "SEE! I TOLD you I was with him!" to
which Method Man replies "Big deal shithead, you still can't cut.
Jesus..."
We also had Carrot Top in our store too *UGH*. He had body guards. Wanna
know why? You'd think WHY would a guy like fuckin CARROT TOP need body
guards? Well, it's because of people like one of my coworkers. He HATES
carrot top. A LOT. He has a brick in the back of his car with "carrot
top" written on it just in case he ever runs across the guy. Plus, another
co worker was relating her "encounter" with him, and she was like (keep in
mind she's a virgo and she hates carrot top too) "he was wearing SO much
friggin Poundcake (makeup brand) that you could barely see his friggin
freckles. It was GROSS."
We do get our instances where we get COOL "celebrities" in.....the same
"carrot top brick" employee got to fuckin meet Kerry King from Slayer and
he was excited all week about it *lol*
I haven't had too many idiots at work lately, suprisingly enough....I'm in
a lull it seems, which hey...I'm not complaining
Well at least not face to face. I've been getting a LOT of stupid
phonecalls. |

I'm wondering if I have a sign somewhere that says: "Please show me your
new infected/swollen body piercings and tatoos, and please only the most
unattractive stank people do this okay."
I love body piercings, and I love tatoos. I'm not the least bit inhibited
about asking if I can see one closer if I like it or think it's unusual, or
if someone tells me about it in an inobvious place and we're comfortable
enough for show and tell on a tatoo or piercing show me level. I just
don't get it why if I don't ask to see it closer, or pretend to not notice
it, why anyone would embarass themselves and whip out body parts to show
me.
I don't mean that if someone comes in all excited, and it's on an easily
shown arean, then go ahead and show me, fine okay, it's even cute with the
excitement sometimes, but then sometimes it's just stupid.
Case in point. Person I don't think has the IQ of a lima bean comes in,
with her boyfriend who may have the IQ of a piece of lint. The girl asks me
for a job application, says she's sixteen and points to her baby in the
stroller and says that she's never had a job, but that her job abilities
are "I'm a mom." Then shoves her pretty obviously homemade type tatoo in my
face and says, "Look here's my baby's name." I go, "Oh okay and smile." So
she keeps showing it to me and reading it and saying isn't it wonderful,
etc. I tell her how nice it is, till she puts it away. Okay fine, please go
away now.
She comes in on one of her later visits with the same boyfriend, and says,
"I can't eat hard food for a few days." She's obviously got her tongue
recently pierced okay cool. So go hey I got my tongue pierced and show me
from where you are, but of course not. Then her boyfriend goes, "I can't
eat today, but she can have ice cream," and then he giggles. He's obviously
just gotten his tongue pierced as well. Okay fine, so stay where you are
and open your mouths and go hey I got a tongue ring, but again of course
not. Then the girl goes and leans over the counter and opens her mouth like
two inches in front of my face, and there was no where to back up to, and
the halitosis be strong in her, and she breaths onto me "Look at my tongue
ring,"followed by giggles. The boyfriend manages to keep a distance of
about five inches as he lurches forward too, and breathes on me, "Look me
too."tee hee hee. So I tell them how nice that is and oh how cool. *sighs* ____________________ "When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've never
