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

Oh that sounds satisfying. Glad you got away with it.

Can the janitor take a joke?

[-] fishbone@lemmy.world 27 points 9 months ago

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

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

Agreed.

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

[-] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 months ago

Yeah, that's fair...

[-] paddirn@lemmy.world 55 points 9 months ago

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

You're just looking to cause trouble with your Star Trek font on a Star Wars meme.

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Should've used Comic Sans!

[-] paddirn@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

That's the one with the Police Box, right?

[-] GratefullyGodless@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Nope, it's the one with Cylons.

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.

...

You brought that shit to your new job too, didn't you.

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 15 points 9 months ago

Well that's when you have to do it... to test the waters.

[-] CPMSP@midwest.social 10 points 9 months ago

...maybe other people just aren't into feet as much as you.

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.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 23 points 9 months ago

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.

[-] teft@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

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

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 8 points 9 months ago

Snoop Actually Dogg can out smoke anyone!

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.

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

well, don't keep us in suspense, what was it?

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago

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.

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago

goodness, I'm glad you managed to survive :0

[-] raynethackery@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Your job was skydiving?

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 5 points 9 months ago

When you say wait outside it was like at the door or....

[-] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago

When I accidentally set off the office alarm because I was new and fled the scene out of panic.

[-] AppaYipYip@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

The dog's cute little teeth!

When they name a new policy rule after you...

[-] GratefullyGodless@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

The Boimler Effect.

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 6 points 9 months ago

Well it's better than a disease.

[-] WhyAUsername_1@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

We should name it Ross!

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

This made me audibly laugh. Thanks.

[-] rimjob_rainer@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 9 months ago

I know this feel

[-] leanleft@lemmy.ml 3 points 8 months ago

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.

[-] JustUseMint@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago

I died of cringe.
