Video games. They can provide a form of stress relief while helping with coordination and problem solving skills.

Vaccinations! They are the most rigorously tested d***s out there and have demonstrated their effectiveness over the course of decades, saving millions of lives.

Yay! I can comment on this!!! I worked at a casino that opened a few years ago and I remember during orientation they were talking about : "We're different than other casinos, our windows open." By the time I left a year ago, security confirmed 4 s*icides from room balconies. Open patios/windows aren't a good idea for people with a gambling a*******n.

I work in the automotive field, had a coworker complain to manager that I wouldn’t let him use my tools, to make him money, seriously!!! I purchased those tools to make me a faster/ better technician, he can buy his own tools!!!! Later the same month, manager actually told me I need to teach coworker how to perform my job, so he can make money/ take work from me, told them both to hire a new tech, I’m quitting,,,,,,,,,.

This was abput 10 years ago, a guy in accounts pretended his wife had died.

He faked her funeral, took compassionate leave (quite a lot of extra leave, as the wife was Indian and he claimed he had to go to India to sort out her estate), was given £500ish from an office collection.

Unfortunately he hadn't let his wife in on the scam, and she phoned the office looking for him one afternoon.

I believe the complaint that came in from his supervisor was 'You know X's wife died, well I just had a phone call from the afterlife'.

He was fired on the spot, sued for his extra leave, and is the reason we ask grieving workers for death certificates before we allow any extra PTO.

My supervisor pulled me aside one time, apologized to me for what he was about to say. He proceeded to tell me that my wall mate (low cubicle walls) complained to him that I “meow”. Um, yes, I am a cat lover but I do NOT meow.
What this nit was actually hearing was me saying “OW” when I moved the wrong way and aggravated my newly torn ligament in my shoulder.

Had a coworker complain that I “drank too much water”. Had to explain to HR that I have neuropathy and I’m usually always dehydrated.

I had a (male) boss tell my department (full of ladies) that we needed to look more pleasant while we were working. As designers, we’re on computers drawing all day trying to concentrate. Sorry that we’re not smiling and trying to be pleasant-looking for you while we’re deep in thought.

Got called "intimidating" asked what I had done to be accused of that.

It was the horrible crime of being tall.
