Bad Colleagues
That b3ta thread reminded me of the times I've worked places with weird/odd colleagues. i've talked about PA Consulting one, but these have happened to me:
Mary, 40's/50s - a Jesus nut who had a 'turn' and refused to leave the office saying that the MD was going to hell, refused to be touched, police had to be called and restraining order put on her as she kept coming back! She eventually and unsuccessfully sued the company for wrongful dismissal. And being the agents of Satan. probly.
Another guy at a place I was working who one day took the piss publically of my glasses, which had broken and were fixed by tape
'Why do you have tape on your glasses?'
'Cos they're broken.'
*pause*
Next day he had an epileptic fit, hitting his head, co-workers didn't know he was epileptic. I felt like Damien out of the Omen. Aces!
I probably have loads of these, from odd psycho clients to insane crackhead-style games-company interviewing lady who kept stopping to look and stare at my face like she was E'd out of her head(s). She also had gold trainers on. Bad move.
