Not the same but I once saw a girl on facebooks touching tribute to her recently passed Nan that ended RIP in peace. It’s now my go to line whenever I hear of anyone’s death.

Also waiting for a flight at Derry airport the check in staff announced that a flight was delayed indefinitely. I asked them so it’s cancelled and she looked at me blankly and said no it’s just delayed…….indefinitely

When I was an Apprentice one of the engineers grassed me and another apprentice for sitting around and being lazy.

He became our enemy. He was allergic to Oranges so used to leave orange peel all around his desk , and parts of the shop floor he worked on. Soak his plastic chair in orange juice.

We also urinated into his kettle, which he did drink. Worse thing was he made a cup for one of the wiremen we liked. How he never noticed the smell I don't know.

Probably the scent of all the oranges…..
 
Had a few in my time. The absolute worst was this non-match going kopite.

He was just an all round arsehole.

1: He was a kopite who was from Runcorn. He once very aggressively started to defend why he had never been to Anfield. Things like it, 'nobody would go with him', 'it was too far too travel' & 'it was too expensive to even go to one game'. I just sat there and said, I was going to the odd Everton game, on my own, while being a student, while living in Cumbria, this was after having a season ticket for 3 years, while being a student and getting the first season ticket on my own before I even knew I would be going to live in Liverpool. He absolutely couldn't take it and started with some other crap, was proper spitting with anger. This was while in the office.

2: He once squared up to me in work because he didn't say no to a customer, despite me telling him no on multiple occasions. He thought he was being a great support person by consistently telling the customer that he would see what he could do, until the point where the customer snapped and I again said no. I was sat down and he started to puff out his chest and then lean towards me. Very odd behaviour.

3: On multiple occasions there were incidents of bouncers/random strangers laying into him on work nights out and other nights out.

4: Probably should have stopped at 'Kopite from Runcorn', but thought I would elaborate lol

K) The fella who has an anoos half way up his back, who obliterates the facilities and walks away without trying to rectify the situation.

Does every workplace have a phantom poo monster? We had one who regularly used to stuff the male bogs with paper towels and then cack on top of it...and leave. Another time we found a human poo in the smoking shelter - carefully wrapped in bog roll. The facility managers always used to come to the union room and complain. I'm not sure what they thought we could do about it!

There are definitely some people with some very bad habits in that respect where I work. Once went into a cubicle and there was a big brown smudge down the flush button lol

In another place I used to work some lad got fired and he came back in the middle of the night and shat on the doorstep of the fire exit where we all used to smoke

Engineers rule. Project Managers drool.

I only part jest. The project managers always seem to get ground down where I work. I found out the current PM for our projects has gone because he couldn't take it anymore.

If it makes you miserable though, you're better off out and finding something that you do. Imagine in 20 years time looking ack of over 20 years of misery - no one would choose to that in a right mind.

Me old fella told me about someone in his place who liked to defecate into the centre of a toilet roll. This was when cisterns were high level and the rolls stored on top. Many a finger nail required cleaning

Someone I worked with, curled one down into a drawer on the boss, who was a hated bullies desk and carefully covered it with paperwork. So it wasn’t found for quite a while.

No one ever owned up and no one ever found out who it was lol
