Funny overheard conversations in work

Back to emails...

My work computer died 10 days ago and I have been without email for a week. One of my staff left on Friday so I have swapped computers with her and needed to call the IT bloke (in another town) to talk me through setting up my email account on her mac.

I asked my boss for the number of the IT bloke so he emailed it to me... :rotfl:

I was in the work kitchen making a coffee when I overheard the following exchange.

Lady 1: Have you seen that new cute guy in IT?
Lady 2: yeah have you noticed his package? he must be hung like a donkey!
Lady 1: Silence
Lady 2: He's stood behind me isnt he?
Lady 1: Mumbles yes

Not overheard as such as it was me that said it but everyone else that heard me was laughing...

I used to work on a maintenance helpdesk and when people logged calls we gave them a 6-digit reference number. One guy's number was 282820. I read it out then started laughing, I could hardly breath I was laughing so much and someone else had to finish the call for me. It wasn't even that funny!

Heard today, names changed to protect the innocent (me!)

"It's very foggy today, innit Tracy?"

"Clean your specs Sharon!"

Overheard on a bus a few weeks ago. Two very old ladies talking about a man they both liked. One said "as soon as his wife dies, I'm straight in there"

:eek::rotfl:

Also on that bus was a pair of its regular travellers - a bloke cuddling the biggest rabbit I have ever seen in my days. It's about 3ft long and sits contentedly eating salad for the whole journey!

I was tempted to say "all human life is there" but the wife won't be for long, and one is a rabbit.

One of my old colleagues had her own version of the phonetic alphabet. To everyone's amusement she spelled out her name, which included 'I for Eileen' and 'D for !!!!!!' - to a client on the phone :rotfl:

"L for Leather" is always a good one in a mangled phonetic alphabet!

Whenever I ring up my bank, I always feel the need to do this, pretend I'm like a Police Officer, Alpha, Romeo, Tango and what not. I do absolutely fine and get it right until my brain goes blank and I end up saying J for Johnson or H for Horse, then they ask me to repeat and it's J for Jingle and H for Homework. What a burk...
