Oddballs at your work

I work with a load of women. Most of them support Manchester United. End of thread.

I work with a kid, about 30. Nice lad, knows a lot about football, talks sense. Loves his girlfriend and their children and looks out for his mum and dad. Supports the scum. Has done all his life. Just don't understand how he can be so nice and yet so wrong...
 
We had a very strange lad who used to work alongside us. He used to go Hawaii on his own and used to have a picture of Amanda Lamb in his wallet pretending it was his misses. He also confessed to going Bukkake party's.
 
I had a chef who used to work for me who just before he started his shift would go into the walk in fridges and howl like a fucking wolf for about 10 seconds then go out and start. The thing is he didn't know I knew about it. I have a flat when I have to stay on site and it's above said fridges so I'd be sat watching Telly and this fucking shrieking would start.
I never said anything to him until just before he left. I brought it up and the look on his face and the Crimson blush across his face told me he didn't realise I could hear him. He must of thought the fridges were sound proof the crank.

The catering trade is crammed full of cranks and alkies. Fact.
 
Back in the early 80s I was on one of those Manpower services dig a ditch schemes. Never met such a diverse band of people before or since. For anyone not familiar with the Manpower Service Commission it was Thatchers way of manipulating the unemployment figures. Anyone who had been unemployed for more than 6 months had to take a job with the MSC or lose all their benefits. So you had people who had never worked a day in their lives forced into work, craftsmen who had been made redundant and couldn't find work in their own trade, ex managers who couldn't find work and the unemployable including druggies, ex cons, people with mental health issues etc. All of them forced into working as labourers on some pointless scheme.
Violence against the supervisors or workers was a daily thing. On one of the sites in and around Rochdale someone was guaranteed to get a good shoeing every day.
Our supervisor got battered a couple of times, there were some proper scary fucking people working there. Most of the day was spent doing absolutely fuck all. We would spend the day in the cabin playing cards. Our supervisor wouldn't even attempt to come in and make us work. We also got banned from every pub in 3 mile radius of the site and I don't blame them.
Sounds like a good scheme. They just needed tougher management.
 
Used to work with this big fat sweaty half baked jackass a few years back ,who would spend most of his working day in the small kitchen with his hands down his pants ,making brews for anybody he could persuade to have one (not me!)
One day one of the lads came in with pie, chips & gravy and fatty stared at him as he was eating. The lad spat a mouthful of food back into the tray and was about to bin the last bit when fatty made a bee line for him and wrestled it off him and down the hatch it went , disgusting. He also bit the head off a dead pigeon out on site once! He used to be wanking in the stores and was caught a few times. The lads used to say to him, 'Dosser, Dosser , show us ur tosser' and he'd duly oblige! fruit cake!
 
Bloke I worked with collects bus / train / ferry / plane tickets.
When he knew you were going away he'd pay you a little visit and ask if you could go on a local transport from somewhere to somewhere (wherever you were going) as he would like the ticket....
He'd be waiting for your return and his 'gift'.
I came back from New York once with a fistfull of subway tickets. He was thankful and said he would use most as swaps with his ticket collector friends....
Don't see the problem with this...
 
Back in college days at McDonalds there was a lad who was about 4'8'' and was a weasley looking character, about 30 years old. He was literally the "jack of all trades"' in the store, slid himself into all the grease traps and behind the places most couldn't get to clean most of the day. He would take any shift you didn't want, providing he wasn't covering someone else's.

Would always dress up like a fucking Inuit no matter the weather and cycle in on a bike that was 5x too big for him. He used to sleep in the staff room on the sofa so he could take a 3 hour break and work someone else's shift and would regularly stay on and end up working like 18 hour shifts. Then he disappeared, just vanished and never turned in again.

Turns out he hit an 80 year old OAP on his bike and rode off into the sunset. Was charged for it and the police turned up to his gaff to find child porn and shit on his laptop apparently. The reason he had vanished and never come back is because he was facing trial and conviction! We all found out about this via the local telegraph years later! He was an oddball it's fair to say.
