I remember back in day working in a gas bottle factory and working with this strange dude who never really spoke a word, kept to himself basically he was a kind of introvert but boy did he look weird with his teased long black hair and eyeliner, rocker shoes in work overalls and always looking tired. I later found found out he was member of some rock band hence the weird look and tiredness i guess. Have any of you encountered any strange lookers or weird types at your workplace?

Yeah when I worked security there was one complete meat head who thought he was hot shit, and a pathological liar. Basically a frat boy stereotype but without a high school education. He also had a power hungry law enforcer stride to him. Also he lied about being in the marines. Turns out he enlisted, but didn’t make it through basic training.
He lied about his position of power within the company, and bullied the new employees, also civilians who got too close to an area he was guarding.
He was belligerent and dumber than a brick. But to the rest of us employees, he was a laughing stock. We made jokes about him and impersonated his mannerisms. Joking about him made a boring job more entertaining.
Of course he inevitably got fired when he put a new employee in a headlock and bent his arm backward too far. But I’m surprised he lasted as long as he did.👍 2Comment

I've often suspected that perhaps *I* am the weird type in various workplaces. I look normal enough. But I've gotten a lot of iTs tHe qUiEt oNeS yOu hAvE tO wAtCh oUt fOr a lot over the years
which is so fucking annoying
Anyways If i've worked with weirdos theyre probably the ones i befriended so i didnt think much about their weirdnessComment

I used to work with this Ethiopian guy who got high on Khat a bunch. It's a plant that you chew that is a stimulant which is fairly similar to amphetamines. He was almost as much of a character as our Ill Duce
He used to randomly shout "Who did this" I haven't seen him in like 14 years or so.
I woke up in early February ok a rare cold and shouted "who did this" when I walked outside.👍 1Comment

One of the job sites was a film studio property that had wild skunks roaming around the area. He told us all about how he saw a skunk about 100ft away, and he threw a Gatorade bottle in an upward arc at it. Then the bottle came crashing down on its head and knocked it right the fuck out 😂👍 1Comment

Another weirdo I used to work with; it was when I worked on a temporary transition job on a pot farm one harvest season. The dude’s name was Michael but he insisted we called him by his self-proclaimed nickname “Hollywood.”
Why? I don’t know. The guy wasn’t even from Southern California. He was from Georgia. And he was just so full of himself and a complete know-it-all. Claimed to know so much about growing pot, the pot industry, and how he was such a ladies man.
He was one of the slowest trimmers and harvesters on our team. And he was let go for holding production behind. People liked talking shit about him long after he was gone

My last job was @ one of those convenience marts with a truck stop all together. And a tiny version of a once popular pizza joint on one end of the counter.
While training on day shift I was told I was hired to work nights after training, to keep two troublesome guys separated. They couldn't work together. After working with them, I can't imagine why...
One, a tall lean dude, 30-ish, the silent angry type. Always vaping outside. When he'd get mad @ something not working out while putting food together, it got thrown down/around in a quick quiet rage.
The other dude, maybe 5'6", "didn't give two shits 'bout nothin' guy, and a proud prick. Prob. weighed #135 lb soaking wet, claimed to be a 10th degree Black belt in judo. @ 31 years old. Not co-ordinated, more of a herky-jerky kinda guy. No way this guy could've scared me, so full of shit haha.
Those to jerks should have been left alone and let them go at it. I would have run off a fountain Coke, sat down @ a table and watched.mother moon -she's calling me back to her silver womb,
