I worked with a guy who did that - steve something! We used to call him the stealth support guy. They sacked him after about 2 weeks when they caught him installing their software on one of his PC's that he brought into the office

Strange people you have worked with
It seems lately I have been getting a run of contracts with 'strange' people to work with.
One picks his nose and wipes it under the desk quite open in doing it and it makes me feel sick even walking past his desk to think what horrors may lie underneath and I want some acid for my mouse, keyboard if they come over to show me something and touch them.
Another he would come over and just stand behind you not saying a word, you could feel him almost breathing down your neck, you turn find out what they want then they would still just stand there for 30 secs it freaked me out.
Anyone worked with very strange people? I can't be the only one to have worked with members of the 'odd family'Tags: None
