Set and changed name of the paper supply from Letter to Toilet Paper.. You should've seen the tech guys face when he tried to walk through a customer changing his paper sizes later

Worked at a movie theater and had a bad day. I ended up sitting down to watch a movie and was seen by some spy in the audience. My manager was all scared because he might have to fire me. That was one of the saving graces of that job, I could slack as hard as I could try but still be one of the best ushers.

We used to deep fry toys at BK.

At the lab I worked at, all the tables had nozzles that shot out air at a decently high pressure. My buddy and I would hook up rubber tubes to these air nozzles and fill the rubber tubes with pippette tips (hard plastic sharp things) and turn on the air...

Suffice it to say that whoever was in control of the pipe, the other one would run. We would also shoot the pippettes at various styrofoam and non-valuble objects.

Stupid only because I've never seen the girl before in my life.

So she just initiated this out of the kind of her own heart? Did she do it until you finished?

I don't know if you're joking. But that actually happened around here. What do you do if you're driving a very large bulldozer and accidentally back over a new truck? Dig a hole a little deeper and put the truck in it! Then report it stolen. What do you NOT do? Tell people about it. He did. What even he knew not to do about it? Tell people which building.

...somewhere in the county, there's a Ford F250 under the basement. And he'll never say which building.

A buddy of mine was working the cash register when an ex employee came in and started swearing at everyone. My buddy decked him.

On July 4th back then, I went to work even though I wasn't scheduled. We pulled up chairs and a case of beer on to the roof and watched the fireworks. I remember the guy on the drive through register was drinking vodka all night and could barely talk to customers.

That job sure was fun. ;-)

Let me guess - this is the location with the severed finger in the chili...

As far as me, we had an ant problem, and an ESD gun that went upto 25kV. Ants would actually pick up enough static charge to be pulled from the copper plate that they were talking on, and go flying towards the tip before the arc hit them. Only about 1 and in 4 met god.

:Q You realize you were contaminating the fry oil with extremely toxic plastic carcinogens?

 

[Horus]

Hmmm..

Dropped a live grenade 5 meters in front of me with the pin out and spoon gone. The damn thing slipped outta my hand as I was throwing it.

I have my unit's record for busting M16s. Damn plastic pieces of crap.

Just for your info, never, EVER try to use an M16 buttstock to break through walls

Oh, and I've melted machinegun barrels before, as well. That's really fun, watching them turn white-hot then droop.

I used to work at a restaurant on the toll road down in Indiana. We knew all of our customers would be down the road with no way to turn around before they realized that we had messed with anything. We did boring stuff like break all the bones in the chicken so it would be deformed, take donut dough and leave it above the deep fryers to see how big it would get, steal other employee's cars and hide them in the cornfield across the street...but the worst was this one guy. He would put a surprise in one of the biscuits on each tray. I think there were about 36 on each tray. Anyways, he would take his dip (chew) out of his mouth and bury it in one of the biscuts. No customers ever found one that we know of though....

I replied, "Can I get that in writing?"


Had a long talk with the boss on that one.

Well I was flirting with her and asked is she wanted to drive. She was sitting on my lap when I popped a tent and she took care of things from there on.

I drove around Detroit for 8 hours counting the number of times I used the brakes... oh wait... that WAS my job...

 

[Mayfriday0529]

I don't know if this counts but i took a golf cart and it had just rain and my buddy and i were on the cart and i decided to do a fast stop with a 360 spin since the road was wet. well it didnt workout and instead i only got about half way when slammed into a bush and then a building.

 

[ChurchOfSubgenius]

There are so many it's tough to pick....one of the ones they always bring up at parties is this: Me and another technician worked in a huge shop/garage building prototype transmissions plus installing them and whatnot at a corperate design and research plant

I was sitting in our office that has a large window overlooking the car lifts and co-worker was standing in front of one of the big tool boxes with a drawer open playing xylophone with the rows of open end wrenches.......I pick up the phone thinking I was going to make him laugh by yelling at him over the shop intercom, but I had never used it before ....when I go to hit the intercom button on the phone, I accidentally hit the "emergency" button and say "Matt, please stop playing with yourself ,Matt, please stop..." and I hung up because I could hear it come thru my phone too?

I look out at him and he mouths "you idiot!" at me, it turns out the emergency button makes every phone go into speakerphone mode and even breaks into peoples conversations that are currently talking on the phone, so say....my german head of engineering who was talking to a buyer at Ford at the time got to hear my advice to Matt.

I hid in the office closet just as engineers began to pour out laughing looking for me.

A good friend and I got into the clean out bucket of a 60ft long boom excavator (a Cat 325L longfront trackhoe) and our boss (the shop foreman at the time) stretced it out to the full extent and lifted us off the ground about 8-10ft and started going around and around till he said the tracks started lifting...? We were pinned inside the bucket and had a ride better than any fair or carnaval could give us... (plus being paid at the time)

of course this was some years ago when I worked for a rental company that I wont mention but hey it was super cool... (but now wonder how I lived through things like that...?)

 

[Gurck]

When I used to work at BJs overnights we'd race around the store on pallet jacks, fun stuff
