Two people were caught having sex in my office building. Hint the freight elevato has a camera in it.

I was a ski lift operator on a double chair lift. In order to keep the lines to a minimum, we were required to send two riders up in every chair. A nice looking single young gentleman skier was standing off to the side waiting for another single rider so he could pair up. Just then an attractive female rider (slightly older) skied up to the front of the line.

He: "Are you single"

She: "No, but I AM separated"

Well, in the early 1970's I worked For Reynolds Metals Company, as a secretary in their Extrusion division (California). Our office was attached to the factory where all the huge ovens were used in the extrusion process. In the office, we had this guy who was about mid 40ish, an accountant, a know-it-all, and a snob to boot. He loved to eat and every morning one of the foreman would usually bring him something really tasty from home. So one morning, Charlie (the foreman) comes running in all fired up and Yells at this guy to come quick. And bring his knife and fork with him as they had a great breakfast snack out on the floor. Like an idiot, the accountant grabs napkins, his fork and knife and took off running to the back of the plant for "breakfast". About 1 minute later, he smashed back into the office with a snarl on his face (which was truly beet red) and the rest of the guys off the floor followed him in and they were laughing so hard, they could barely stand up. Seems a cat wondered into one of the ovens and got itself cooked when the aluminum was put in (poor little thing). And that was the accountant's "great breakfast treat". After 25 years I can still see his face and it still makes me laugh. Boy, he deserved it..... :)

During college, I was working in a sporting goods store and gun shop. Two guys walked in, and one stood in the archery section while the other went back to talk to the gunsmith. The guy waiting in the archery sectino was holding a squirrel tightly in his hands. The squirrel was straining to get away and was completely bug-eyed. And it had bit the crap out of him and his hands were completely red with blood.

And I had a very nonchalant conversation with him about how he caught the squirrel and what he was going to do with the squirrel until his friend returned and they left.

I used to work as a pool boy for a large estate. One day, while the owner was out of town on business, his wife calls me into the house.

Oh, wait, this was my letter to Penthouse. Never mind!

OK, here's the history of "Fredhead." In my earlier days I was a partaker of the evil weed. My friends called me Fred the Head, and fredhead just stuck. (I was also a Lib and a Dumbocrat then, but I grew up and saw the error of my ways.)

You're right; that's different than a "Richard" head!

Was her name Mrs. Robinson? :-)

LOL!

In 32 years of working, I've never:

Showed up on a job where I wasn't hired yet.

Airbrused myself out of my boss's family picture.

Pretended to be handicapped.

Quit because I couldn't use the boss's bathroom.

Slipped my ex-boss a mickey.

Gone down to payroll to try to figure out what project I'm supposed to be working on.

Got traded away to a chicken company.

I have, however, had many "Mr. Penske is here to see you" moments.

I take it you've never manufactured latex at Vandalay Industries either :)

LOL! "You know Penske, from the Penske file."

So, what does this have to do with conservatism?

"We will win with the Sword Of Teamwork and the Hammer Of Not-bickering!"

That was our company motto. Actually, it was Hammer of Teamwork and Sword of Short Coffee Breaks. Or was it Screwdriver of Company Outings? I can't remember now.

I'm still waiting for:

"Can you guess what I'm thinking now?"

"Yes, I believe I can."

"Is it doable?"

"Definitely!"

I once worked for a company that we had this huge Christmas party BBQ. We also knew that they were going to lay off half of us right after the first of the year. So right before we went we got an email for management asking that we please stop referring to the BBQ as the "Condemns last meal"
