Workplace Rules

[mackenzie]

I've been wondering what is the daftest thing you ever heard?

Today I heard about a garage where the blokes have been told they can't wear shorts in hot weather. Nothing to do with the risk of harm due to lower limbs if something spills (which I could understand in a way), more to do with the fact that if they tripped up and exposed their "tackle" then it might offend the odd female within viewing distance.

LOL!!

We have "risk assessments" at work......on the set up of our desks and the equipment etc etc. I said "We don't work for the SAS FFS??!!!!"

How come they never do risk assessments for something like the Iraq war?
You can imagine some suited guy stood at the side of a soldier saying "You're gonna do what!!!, fire pieces of pointed metal at high velocity at some foreigner's head!!" "Hang on let me check the Health and Safety manual on that one and get back to you"

My wife worked at one of the largest legal firms in Stockport.
At the Xmas do the staff weren't allowed to get drunk as they were still representing the company. However the "management" were pissed as farts throwing food about and then making passes at the nubile staff

Why??

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

Well, the microwave is in someone elses office, so they were getting into work and their office was stinkin of chicken. Thing is though I'm awrite with them lot and they weren't complaining, it was the snooty woman that lives opposite that was, but she was telling people it was them who were complaining.

I just eat my chicken cold now

I think this woman needs to get a life.

You obviously invaded her "territory" in some shape or form (in her mind anyway).

I work with some like that.
