I don't know if the weather change has made people tired or what, but I must admit the best place for overhearing funny conversations last week was on the way to the kitchen.
Woman " Look at the state of my belly, I can't wait to get rid of it"
Man " Oh, what is that? Is it a beer belly?
Woman " No I've had children
"
Manager " Can I get some training on the new phone system?"
BT Man " Dial 9... then your number... training done :eek:"
^^^That one nearly made me wet myself with laughter. :rotfl::rotfl:
Woman A "Ohhhhhhh when's your baby due?"
Woman B "I'm not pregnant :mad:"

It's better to regret something I did do than to regret something that I didn’t. :EasterBun

My colleague reported a "blue screen of death" to the IT service department today. He was asked to email the error message on the screen. "Erm no, I can't email anything because all I can see is a blue screen". Doh!0

Pity that was the only desktop, laptop or smartphone in the entire premises. Otherwise it would have been a simple thing to email them.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
I overheard a man in his fifties on the bus last week saying to his girlfriend "I don't care, they can send me back to prison if they want, save me a few pennies over Christmas and you'll have the decorating done and the house all nice for when I get out in February" !!! What a charmer.Norn Iron Club member 4730

As a colleague came round to collect the weekly lottery syndicate money Girl 1 says "I'm sick of paying a £1 every week to get nothing in return"
Girl 2 "You know what we should do, instead of buying a lottery ticket we all put £1.00 per week in then at the end of the year we will put all our £1's together and share them out"
Girl 1 "wow, 52 weeks in a year, imagine how much we would get each if we shared it all out!"
Girl 2 is tapping into her calculator as I inform them it would just be the £52 they have put in...0 -
A partner's having a conversation on loudspeaker in her office. The only thing I heard from the other person was...
"Have they peed on the carpet yet?"
(Luckily I know she's just got two kittens - although not everyone else has been informed, so God knows what they were thinking lol!)

Most company emails in large organisations are specific to and installed on a particular computer and can't be opened on another.
They could of course (provided the job entailed everybody being connected to the internet) have emailed from a personal account on someone else's computer so long as they didn't mind emailing the IT department from sugartlts69@hotmail :rotfl:Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)
December £361.54, November £322.28, October £288.52, September £374.30, August £223.95, July £71.45, June £251.22, May£119.33, April £236.24, March £106.74, Feb £40.99, Jan £98.54) Total for 2017 - £2,495.100 -

As a manager at a builders most of the time I hear normal 'builder' related chitchat but this morning I overheard two of the lads (big burly !!!!!!s they are too) talking about getting a spray tan. One of them is booked in to have it done this weekend and the other wants to see the results before he does it too.
That was quite a surreal conversation considering they're usually talking about beer, women and football.0 -
I was in a queue in Asda the other day and there was a middle aged couple behind me. The man had a loud voice.
The man said to the woman
'You could do with some new underwear in your knicker drawer.'
The woman murmured something. The man said.
'Oh, I forgot, you don't wear knickers anyway, do you and when you do they don't stay on for long.'
The woman murmured something. The man said.
'Oh, I know I should keep my mouth shut. I have to watch what I say.'
Damage already done methinks.The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0
