    They held a school-wide assembly on bringing dangerous items to school after I launched a free-flight gas powered model plane and it chased down the janitor. I was never caught tho :D

        Being mean to underpaid staff isn’t exactly joke material, accidental or not.

          Agreed.

          Should’ve been an autonomous drone with AI face recognition configured to go after the school principal.

    You’re an example employee that others will be looking to.

    At my old job we had a meeting about “appropriate and work-friendly lunch choices” because of what I brought a few days ago.

    It’s some kind of fermented shrimp sauce from south east Asia. Apparently it has the same effect like durian fruit. Meaning, to some people it’s smell like angel’s feet, but to some other it could smell like rotten flesh. One of my friends literally vomit from just smelling it, but I just can’t get enough of it.

    I was a PA on a Hanes underwear commercial & when they called for a Safety Meeting it meant you were supposed to go smoke a joint behind the generator.

    That dog was there.

      Same happened when I was a permanent stand-in on Tulsa King. Had a meeting because just because we were outside and in a legal state didn’t mean we could blaze up the set lol. One of the stars was the one smoking blunts but we all got chewed out. Think it pissed off Stallone.

      I was a roofer and safety meetings for us were the same. Smoking a doobie in the work van.

    I was once the star of such a meeting. What I did was so bad that they wouldn’t even let me into the meeting. The meeting was for literally everyone else on site, and manager told me to wait outside.

        I landed really badly in skydiving and it freaked the manager out. She was really nice to me cuz honestly I really narrowly escaped death and it spooked her so badly that she gathered everyone for a safety briefing, but left me out because it was very emotional for everybody frankly. emotional for her, she probably didn’t want to lose her shit or something, or she didn’t want to put me on the spot while I may have been psychologically fragile at that moment, I don’t know. But I was calm, I was fine. slight PTSD of the incident set in for me a few days later, but grateful I avoided death completely unscathed.

    real talk: on a more serious note… one of the worst things your supervisor can do is to omit sharing info of an unseen, potentially very serious, workplace risk.

    Chihuahuas are the reason I prefer cats to dogs. I hate those yappy things. I saw one get chased down by a Rottweiler, and it was satisfying to see the end result.

      Whilst I too dislike stupid, I don’t actually defend the death penalty as punishment for it.
