there are two random guys at the office speaking russian and none of the 8 people in my immediate vicinity has any idea who they are or what they are doing here. They're just hanging out on the patio.

more wtf than hilarious but this woman started in my department like 6 weeks ago. i've said maybe 5 words to her in that time. anyway she's sharing an office with the guy next door for the time being, but he was gone today. so she has a work question and she comes to my office and asks me the question and i answer it and then she just stays there and starts small talking. so i'm being friendly and hoping she stops soon but then she starts talking about how her chair is uncomfortable and then she says "i shouldn't say this, but it's making my butt (leans in and whispers) and other things (leans back and goes back to normal voice) numb. i couldn't feel anything until like 7:30 last night" then she started laughing and jokingly said not to tell hr on her.

crap you shoulda told her i'd made her feel something, hit me up

We're having our usual pot luck (at the end of every month) and our main admin asked me to run to the grocery store to grab a few extra things. Couple things to this story: She loves French onion dip and she's Jewish. So when I got to the dip section at price chopper, I notice they didn't have just regular French onion Dip. They had French onion Dip with bacon and French onion Dip light. I'm like: "I can't bring back the french onion dip light, they'll give me crap." So I grab the one with bacon. She can't have bacon. Whoops.

Our organization's aging staff constantly clicks on viruses. So our Tech department decided to put a filter on any email that includes the word "click" in it to add a warning on the topic that says [potential virus]

they then sent out an email explaining this which triggered their own [potential virus] filter.

They then sent an additional email explaining why the filter was triggered, and triggered the filter again.

Sounds like the IT staff is aging as well!

The IT guy should have just invited all of the aging employees to a conference call and explained it to them. Old people love phone calls.

omg KK

hopefully it also triggered a secondary "everyone stop hitting reply all" avalanche as well

Seems very passive aggressive. Why not just @ ever-y-body in the office?

Not really hilarious, more like so sad that I am laughing.

We tried to use GoTo Meeting on Friday but the app is no longer supported because our operating system is too old. But there is a work around - you can use the web based version on Google Chrome....but we don't have Google Chrome on the conference room computer.

It would take about 10 seconds to put google chrome on the conference room computer.

Well I am sure it would be more than 10 seconds and we needed to start the meeting right away.
