I listen to Girl in Red, make earrings out of random crap, and wear too much flannel. Figure it out.

Back when I was a gas station clerk, my manager would deal drugs while on the clock. He'd take people into the back office to talk to. We all knew what he was doing, mostly because he all but admitted it. And because we all knew, someone eventually said something and then the company tried to make him take a drug test. He just quit, instead.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Busy as hell. A customer comes up to me to tell me their server just dropped a platter of nachos on the ground in front of them. Yelled "f**k" in front of the family, then walked away without cleaning up any of it. Pull her aside and she is visibly drunk all of a sudden. I ask her if she has been drinking. She screams in my face "You want to go to war b***h?" Fire her on the spot. Found out she did 7 shots in about 30 minutes.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
I had an employee call and tell me her mother died. Well, I got an anonymous phone call from someone telling me she was lying so I called the number I had on file to send my regards and I get an address to send flowers. In the meantime the office had collected an envelope of money to help with the costs of the funeral and missing work. When I called, the mother answered and was shocked to find out her daughter used her death as an excuse to go to Vegas for the weekend. When she returned I help a big meeting with everyone in the office and presented her with the envelope of money and flowers, she took it and faked cried. I called her into my office to reveal that I knew and fired her and took the envelope back. She said she "don't give a f**k" and left.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
HR hired an employee to work on the mine I manage. He showed up 45 minutes late wearing shorts and crocs. I proceeded to fire him on the spot. Got a framed letter from corporate jokingly congratulating me for having the shortest tenured employee in company history.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
Referred to a Chinese customer's baby as "a cute little c****y"' when my coworker(who also happens to have Asian heritage) pointed out that it was incredibly racist, the employee replied "oh it's fine my boyfriend is black" the weird part is he was Filipino, not black ( as if it excuses racism anyway) She was shocked when we didn't renew her contract.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
Heh. Back in the retail book industry in ages past I had this employee... He would take a 'bathroom break' anytime an employee got called into the office. Why? Well, because he had discovered (somehow) that if you went to the men's room and stood on the toilet and lifted one of the ceiling tiles, you could sort of make out conversations in the manager's office that was adjacent. He also discovered during one of his frequent smoke breaks that there was an access hallway for grounds maintenance (this was in a shopping mall of sorts) that also had a ladder that went to the roof. He'd occasionally vanish and basically go sit on the roof. If no one could find him, he couldn't get in trouble, he figured.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
Seven65 said: I had an employee call a French woman a frog and then start ribbiting. That was kind of awkward hamakabi replied: I once mentioned to my manager that I had a friend who was learning chinese. She asked how anyone could ever learn that language when it's all "ping pong ching chong ching" Then she noticed the Chinese customer standing behind her with his mouth open. Yeah, that didn't go over well with corporate.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
I was doing a weekly call monitor on one of my better employees and found he was doing an Indian accent. I was a bit surprised so I went back and listened to 5+ calls of his from that week and found he was doing different impressions for almost every call. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Micky Mouse, Apu from the Simpsons, a pretty solid Christopher Walken and a few others.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
Had a see through water bottle that was filled with vodka. He started the day off fine but was legless by lunch. Drove him home (40mins each way) because he couldn't afford a cab. Talked the owner out of firing him and instead we helped him get into a program. That was 4 years ago... he's the production manager now. Model employee now in fact.Bosses-Craziest-Things-Employees-Did-Reddit
I manage a small weld shop. Generally, I don't care about less than clean background checks or pot, as long as you come into work every day and get s**t done. Finding reliable welders is difficult, so a lot of s**t flies. This sometimes leads to weird employees. This one guy we hired stopped showing up. After like 3 days days, he walks in the door. He's bright red from being sunburnt to s**t, and his clothes are torn to shreds. Dude was drinking on a little aluminum boat and somehow got lost at sea. He looked like Tom Hanks from Castaway! He didn't have cell phone reception, so he wasn't able to call me. He did take a bunch of pictures over the few days he was lost at sea, though. Including one where he was being rescued by the coast guard. I gave him the rest of the week off. Cost guard took him to the hospital, he checked himself out, and immediately came into work. Didn't even go home and shower. Odd dude. Fails, Travel
