Stories From Work!!!

I would like this to be a community thread, including SC2 members as well as it's staff and [E] members. This will be a thread to talk about funny stories from work, things that happend that are hilarious.

I'll go first...

I am a PC tech (multiple trades also) and today was one hell of a day. I bring this computer in, all old and he complained it had tons of viruses. I take a look. At first, i didnt notice much, ran a few scans and nothing. If i didnt know better, it was clean. I left it to idle IN THE FRONT AREA OF THE STORE where we do PC maintenence depending on space available. So i left for 20 mins.

2 Old ladies come in, and they start talking about purchasing one, so the computer i was working on went idle. I walk over to check on it, move the mouse... and to my astonishment, and surprise... there was a background picture of this huuuuuuuuuugeeeee wang! Funny thing was, the ladies were looking....

Only thing runing through my mind was... "LMFAO!"

 

Rofllmaool.

I lol'ed so hard.

 

wow those r some pair of old laddys i wonder how u were able to keep straight face

 

Sooo there was a virus... hiding from the scanners?

 

He ran a few scans. He didn't say they were full scans.

 

No, there was no virus, the guy thought the picture was a virus, or to scared to mention it (like most people). So i found out the hard way ;/

 

His background image was a *****? That was it?

That is even funnier.

 

Then shouldn't you have seen it when you 1st looked at the computer?

 

There is an option that can have a background set so that when it comes out of hibernation or standby, you can have a background, unlucky for me, his computer was super old and super slow, so the image stayed there for 2 minutes before it loaded the REAL desktop picture. My guess is his wife or someone put that picture there, idk what it is, if he was gay, all i know is, im glad its outta the shop.

 

Rofl.

 

So I wonder why it's so slow like Tony's comp *cough* and what did you do for those 2 mins?

 

lmao

That is hilarious.

 

but shockingly true....

 

His grew to match the size.

 

That's what she said lol had to :3

 

Wait, so you can make those kinds of jokes, but I can't?

 

Yeah cuz i'm the girl and your not ^.~

 

Vampire would have been turned on by the massive size of it...

And for 2 mins, i just had my hand over it, looking at the floor like a moron ;/

 

Funny story? i got one
About 2 years ago I worked for a Utility company changing water meters in peoples houses for a contractor right. So you know, in a nut shell you went out on your own house to house and made sure water was turned off(obviously) before you change the meter.. So, I was new and they decided to have me go out for the first time. Not alone, I was with a dude I carpooled with at the time, we both started same days. So we are doin the houses and get to this one house. We were taking turns, and was my turn to change the meter inside while he did the paperwork and changes the outside reader. So i go down and I turn the water off.. I losen the nugget to let the remaining water drain.. and its not stopping. So i tighten it back up, drain it in a sink.. repeat. So like 10 minutes go by and my friend comes down like wtf are you doing!?
"the water is still draining"
"nah just pull the meter off.. itll shoot out but itll be fast so just catch it"
"i dunno, i been draining for awhile now.. dunno if itll stop.."
"move i'll do it"
me -"**** you i got it"
>yank< >gushing water<
him- "quick put the meter back on!"
"i cant" (water shooting in my face all down my body) >you cant put back on cause the pressure it too strong, its impossible, we didnt know though)
my friend is LAUGHING! all im thinkin is, we r gunna flood this place on our first day out!
him- "comon!"
me - "you do it!"
(as hes trying I run away upstairs and the old lady.. as im dripping SOAKING wet, jeans and all "isss evvrrryytthhiinnggg oookkkk?(old voice)" "yes yes fine" (runs outside)
I remember we could turn it off from the street but when i get outside i realise i dont know wtf im doing to run back in. Once i get back in i hear my friend from upstairs.
"EVAN!!! EVAN!!!! GET DOWN HERE EVAN!!! WHERE YOU GO!! HAHAHAHAHA"
"iiissss eevvvrrryyytthhiinnggg oookkk?"
(runs downstairs)
"evan check to make sure its turned off"
"it is!"
"just check"
So i go and check and the handle was old and wasnt turned all the way!!! LOL
So the water stopped and the basement had a huge puddle. We finish and leave. It was middle of october and rest of the day we worked in t shirts. we were dieing of laughter and to this day, that day was legendary.

nobody found out and that story was not exagerated at all!

aside from that the next day we went to someones house and this old lady came to the door with a walker and no pants on.. needless to say we walked away. "aww hell nooo"

 

Ok, that is BS.
