The most odd/boring person you have ever worked with

[Diver]

Where to start.....

The woman who was trapped in the 70's who wouldn't do anything without her twin sister in tow. They apparently even used to share the same bed (but before you get carried away they were v.v.ugly).

The bearded bloke that used only 2 phrases to describe every situation, a) "Its up and down like a brides nighty" and b) "You/It/They are as much use as a chocolate teapot/fireguard". He also like to hammer the keyboard which was made worse by the amount of Jim'll Fix It jewlery he used to wear.

The bloke who spent all day huffing louder and louder, spouting H&S laws if you hung your coat on the back of your chair, and was so obsessed with Sponge Bob Square Pants that he threatened to call the police when someone walked off with his SBSP dolly.

The chap who new nothing about IT, but knew how to spend all day picking his scabby elbows and flicking it in my direction.

The Yoda look-a-like who had a massive ego (probably to make up for his minature height) so arragant that he could easily talk himself out of securing any job at the interview.

The bloke who spent all his life with a ear piece in one ear just so he could enter the daily quiz on the lcoal radio. When that was over he would play chess for the rest of the day.

The boss who used to suffer from white froth appearing in the corner of his mouth, usually while he was giving you a ticking off. The froth would eventualy land in my direction. Also used to start every sentence with the word "S'kay"

I could probably go on.....

IT is pretty much full of freaks and weirdo's (me included).

You've just described the CUK membership

There was this really odd guy who used to 'sneak' off into the car park and pick up prozzers, smoke a joint then come back to his desk like it was normal.

Whenever some bastard manager decides to blame me for the big tulippy mess he’s made of things I just remind myself I’m being paid about 1.50 euros a minute to watch him frothing at the mouth and turning red. I sometimes even grab a piece of paper and a pen to make it look like I'm taking them seriously, and sit there adding up how much money I'm making in the process of being bollocked.

That is normal for HAB

He can be abnormal at times though

Only case I care to share (not come across many odd people ) is one place where there were a bunch of help-deskers at the opposite end of the office. One of them was a really old guy (around 70) who now and then used to spend most of the day asleep. Fortunately he never snored. We reckoned he must have been the MD's dad to get away with it.

If I'm still contracting when I get that old I'll probably not give a toss and try it too.

A couple of years ago, I worked with a bloke who had this fascination for buses. Weekends, he would go up to Victoria Bus Station and take photos and numbers. The worst bit was that he would take extended lunches to go ride on a normal bus that he had not been on before so that he could cross it off in his book. Not so bad if you're retired but he was in his mid twenties called Gavin and lived / worked on the Isle of Wight. His screen saver even consisted of coach pictures and he waffled on constantly about them.
