Company I used to work for had a dog, with uncomfortably huge balls. He was tied up to the vinyl cutter. He would make it a point to lay on your foot if you came to get film or vinyl.
Sometimes I had to show clients and they'd want to follow you to the back cause they saw the dog. Everyone plays nice, and pet him, but we really know whats going on here. You got Dog nuts on your foot.....

Our office is at basement level off a busy street, people smoking on the sidewalk and such and we often leave the door open for air.
2 days ago me and my boss were working late it was like 11:30pm and this dude comes down the stairs and walks in real slow. We we like "hey man", he slowly walks over to us and it is super obvious that he is tripping balls. He took like 6 second pauses between words, he asked for 3 dollar bills and we gave him change, and as he was leaving he said "if you see Jesus, tell him you saw me"
this kinda thing happens a lot

Angst and boredom, people getting randomly offended for unknown reason, threats to leave forever and never come back.

We once had a woman come in for a job interview, and it was obvious from the beginning that she was not right in the head. She threatened my bosses life during her interview, and on her way out she decided to use the ladies washroom and took a dump on top of a closed toilet seat lid.
Classy lady.- bwhhahahaJnr_Madison
- You're in Toronto, where do you work and how do I get this chick in for an interview?Andrew_D

"A small child recently lost his hand when his father left two # 31 supermagnets unattended. The child picked one up and when he approached the other magnet on a nearby table,
it became airborne and obliterated his small hand."Fucking magnets.

when I worked at boeing, I came back to my desk and found a printed page with a bear and a love heart on it. Now me being a pretty big geek, I know how to check the printer log. It came from one of the communications girls/editors. when I asked her if it was hers and what it was? she said "oh I don't know, I thought it was yours". haha.
