Reddit, what drama is going on in your office right now?


  1. Everyone is trying to figure out who left the egg sandwich in the fridge, that's been there a month. Its stinks like death, but no one is owning up to it.

  2. We had a community cozy chair. It added character to the office, until we hired another employee who claimed it as her own. It's 8:00 PM and I'm camped near the printer on 5 hours of sleep. I'm using the chair while listlessly stapling packets on auto-pilot. The moment I stand, I kid you not, she grunts and drags the chair away to the front of the office. Nearly fall on my tail-bone. It's a constant source of trouble, and she wasn't getting much work even before this point. She hates doing the very thing she originally agreed to do. She sits in the chair in a state of near sleep. Occasionally, she startles, because the way she sits cuts off her circulation, but settles back into a state of lethargic grumpiness. She staffs the check-in desk when I need to be elsewhere, and, frankly, it doesn't look very good to visitors. I'm responsible for her, but can't fire her. The chair is now gone. She looks for it, but she'll never find it.

  3. I was eating mexican rice the other day for lunch, my boss offers me some chicken to go with my rice. He says "go to the fridge and take the container with fajita meat." I return the washed container to him.... and he then states "Thats not my container??..." So basically i ate someones lunch by accident and the more time that passes the harder it is to confess. The woman is very angry tho

  4. Idk if this is drama. Buuuuutttt.... We have a mentally handicapped employee, about 30 yrs old, at our shop that keeps the shop clean and cleans out the work trucks. He's a nice guy. We also have one legal immigrant who is 65 and can't speak English very well. Also a nice guy. One of our shop managers caught those 2 nice guys kissing each other before the morning meeting and now everyone is all weirded out.

  5. Colleague that clips her toe nails at her desk can't seem to find out what's wrong with her computer mouse. saying they move fast new but slowly die out. She's gone through 3 so far. Little does she know I slowly turn down the sensitivity until she's freaks her shit and buys a new one. Screw her, Don't clip your toe nails at your office desk.

  8. The Phantom Crapper. I work in an office building where there are multiple companies per floor, but only 1 multi-stall bathroom to serve each floor. Every single day, someone from the other company (it's ourselves and 1 other company on our floor) blows up the bathroom, poops on the toilet seat, the floor, doesn't flush, etc. Through careful analysis, cunning detective work, and a fancy Excel spreadsheet, we feel like we have determined who the offender is, but are not sure how to confront her. Now we are getting remodeled bathrooms and have to use the bathroom on the floor below ours. Guess who struck again?

  10. You get "points" for things like being late, calling off, etc. If you get enough of these "points," you get written up, suspended and then fired. After enough time, the points go away. Everybody here plays "The Points Game" to see how much they can get away with without getting in real trouble. On top of how uncool that is, they talk about it incessantly and hate each other for doing it. It is endlessly annoying.

  11. I started my first "real" job almost 2 months ago. Apparently there is a very exclusive doughnut club, in which members take turns each Friday bringing in doughnuts for the other members in the club. It is very serious business, my second week I received a page long email offering some doughnuts because it was a special occasion and most of the club was out of the office, but it was very clear this was a one time deal and usually outsiders partaking in these tasty treats would be punished. A few fridays ago it was the IT guy's turn to bring in doughnuts. I don't know if he forgot, or what, but he ended up getting (finding? Pulling from the trash?) a doughnut box from one of the local doughnut chains, and filled it with the little doughnuts from a packet in the vending machine. He emailed the club like "hey everyone, doughnuts are here!" and people were livid because he clearly was trying to pull a fast one, he was not joking and I guess didn't realize that people would notice. They noticed. The next week is when I was filled in on all of this. Apparently IT guy had been on vacation and was returning that day, so everyone was buzzing about how to get their revenge. They ultimately had settled on putting 12 cheerios in a box (because they look like baby doughnuts?) and sending him the "Doughnuts have arrived!" email. I learned about all of this on revenge day, when my new boss invited me into the club, 2 or 3 weeks ago. I politely declined, mostly because I don't pass any doughnut places on my way to work, but a lil bit because it's way more fun witnessing this all from the outside.

  12. Somebody stole two packets of biscuits from the cupboard. They've asked us to download a week of CCTV off the DVR, assign someone to watch it all, and have had maintenance install a lock on the biscuit cupboard.
