So, the phone rang at work and I answered.
A girl asks me "Who's responsible for bla bla bla?"
I say "Well it's this guy, do you want his phonenumber?"
"Yes!"
I give her the number, then she says "Do you know what my phonenumber was when I lived in Malmö?" (Malmö being the city I'm in).
"No" I answer.
Now comes the weird part. She says "Well, it was #####, but don't think you can call it and flirt with me!"
Me "Uhh...?"
"Well thanks, bye!"
Has anyone else had any weird experiences at work?

Not a work one, but weird none the less.
I was sat here eating lunch, when about 5 minutes ago I hear a weird noise coming from the kitchen. I assume it's my mobile because it's a message-alert style tone, but it's not one I've got set on my phone. It goes off again, and sure enough when I go into the kitchen my phone is flashing. The reason? Someone has set a reminder for today. The message?
"Steven is a c*nt."
I shall be having words.

Could be worse, my housemate had a friend with a particularly annoying younger brother (known to all as Runt) who used to delight in tormenting him - any time Ash left his phone lying around he would either change the operating language to the most obscure language he could find on there, or (my personal favourite) he would change every name in the address book to WANKER, so that when Ash got a call it would simply read: "WANKER CALLING".Pissin' Poonani wrote:Not a work one, but weird none the less.

As in it's not her phone number anymore?
You got that, right?

Much less so than having sex with a phone while at work, though.

Okay, then what about working on a phone while you're having sex?

A few texts I've received over the course of a month, a month or so ago:
Quite aside from the fact that I don't know anyone called kev, I've never been called 'crab' (nickname, insult or otherwise), nor do I have nor have I ever had any gear, whatever that entails.
I've half a mind to have 'crab' phone kev sometime and see where the conversation takes 'them'.
Followed 3 weeks later by:Good 1 my man.here is my no.cheers.KEV.
Followed a couple of minutes later by:Hi crab.can i c u sometime 2day 4some gear.when&were.
By the way.its kev.

Trust me, "kev" thinks you're "crab", who was some bloke he met in a club who sold him some "gear", but who obviously thought "kev" was an "arse" and gave him what he thought was a random number, but which turned out to be yours. Either that or "crab"'s number differs from yours by a couple of swapped digits or something and "kev" wrote it down wrong.
I'd call him, call a couple of my "better-connected mates" and arrange a "finder's fee".
But that's probably just me.

I'd probably shop him to the cops, and wind up out of favour with the filth as it'd transpire that 'kev' is actually an undercover cop himself who was the key to a sting operation upon the real 'crab', who had found 'kev' out and was setting him off on a false trail.Metal Vendetta wrote:I'd call him, call a couple of my "better-connected mates" and arrange a "finder's fee".

I was examining this patient one time, and so I asked her how her eyes were doing.
She responded, "I'm sorry, I didn't hear you, it's dark in here."
She was serious.

Reminds me of the time I went jogging, and at the end of it, my vision going black and white and the people next to me sounding like they were miles away...

She was this young women, all bubbly and flirty, trying to act sophisticated. She was speaking without thinking.

Not sure if I've told this one:
One of the mentally disabled men I used to take care of was schizophrenic. A friend who worked there took him on a walk and asked, "Brandon, are you keeping it real?" Brandon (the schizophrenic) responded, "I'm not a gangster anymore." My friend said, "Brandon, you can keep it real without being a gangster." Brandon shook his head and just at that moment, a man walked by of undetermined ethnicity-- possibly Latino, or maybe just with a good tan-- and Brandon shouted at him "I'M NOT A GANGSTER ANYMORE!"
