He worked forever on some project that sucked and half worked so whenever the job failed on the server it would email out the message: 'Oh, hamburgers! My code crashed!' along with a more detailed real message.
He was on the mailing list and never understood the reference.
Oh man, I'd just be following that guy around and getting him to say stuff so I could laugh hysterically. I love Butters.

Geez, what kind of sissy co-workers do you have at that place? Hell... I have co-workers that throw ethnic slurs and f-bombs at each other all day and don't seem to even get angry about it.
They wouldn't last two hours in your department before getting called into HR for sensitivity training![]()
I've noticed that folks who run around like mad and dont get shit done generally impress the managers more.Originally posted by: SnipeMasterJ13
Ha, I worked with a girl that would go a million miles an hour and still not get anything done. We all called her TurboMosey. I don't think anyone ever told her though...lol.

Maybe because I have been the brunt of teasing all my life for being overweight that when I became the unofficial default leader of a department and because I have a very devilish and dry sense of humor, I was often the one to bestow nicknames on people. Most times I was very upfront with them about it, but there were a few times they were derogatory and only used behind their backs. I can't say I ever slipped, but I did hear others do so. A harsh factory environment can be a breeding ground for gallows humor, but will also build a high level of camaraderie. I always went by the theory that don't dish it out if you can't take it.
There was one press operator that couldn't have stood more than 4' 9" tall and was terrible at his job, I used to call him "half an operator." I heard a guy call him that and he heard it. He wasn't pleased.

No, nothing happened, I guess she just let it go.
I was scared for awhile, we had a nickname for a guy a lil while back, we called him goose, idk what he did, but they shot him. Musta been a whistle blower or something.

People were talking about letting gay slip. It's kind of strange because back in the day the word queer basically meant strange or odd. Then it was used as a derogatory term for homosexuals. Then homosexuals adopted it and made a tv show about metrosexualizing straight men (damn crab people). And now gay/queer are used interchangeably so people say gay when they see something strange or odd and gay people get upset over it.
