For many of us, good relationships with our colleagues are key to surviving in the workplace. That's how inside jokes and banter (saviors of the coffee machine conversation) start.

But to an outsider, second branch manager Betty giving her employee a vivid description of her grandkid's diaper contents can sound a little too much. Or precisely enough to have a good laugh. Some phrases are totally normal in specific jobs, but just look so bad when put in quotation marks.

Thus a Twitter hashtag was created to collect some of the most entertaining phrases people overheard at work.

Take a look at the funniest additions to the #overheardatwork hashtag. Please share amusing things you accidentally heard at your work in the comment section.

If you add the first twenty to the second twenty you get forty. Which is completely without meaning. Just thought you should know.

And if you divide 2020 by 1.016607951685, you get 1987, which is the year I was born in. Coincidence? I think not!

    The hashtag was very much overlooked, with the most popular responses reaching below 50 likes. For sure there must be many more brain-farts committed in a work environment that could be shared, unless everyone suddenly had to sign overwhelmingly strict NDAs (non-disclosure agreements).

    A study has shown that policies where people have to change their passwords frequently tend to encourage writing down passwords and choosing easier passwords "because I have to change the damn thing again in 1 month."

    Passwords are by far more likely to be hacked remotely than at the office. But that is a fun piece of trivia.

    NIST disagrees and so do I. Start using longer passphrases like "ILoveMyDogFrankie or something. Passwords purpose is to ward off brute force attacks. The longer the password the better.

    This is great advice, I was seeing someone in high school kinda like that, we would hang out (make out) alone, but when we were at school he would just act like my friend. Found out later that he was embarrassed that I was black. At our 20th school reunion, he apologized, told me that he made a huge mistake because he really did like me a lot, but he got in his own way and messed it up.

    Aug 19, 2020 news about chocolate snowing from The Guardian: A real-life W***y Wonka would have been proud. But residents of a Swiss town got a bit of a shock when it started snowing particles of a fine cocoa powder after the ventilation system at a chocolate factory malfunctioned. The Lindt & Spruengli company confirmed local reports on Tuesday that there was a minor defect in the cooling ventilation in an area making roasted “cocoa nibs” in its factory in Olten, between Zurich and Basel. The nibs, fragments of crushed cocoa beans, are the basis of chocolate. Combined with strong winds on Friday morning, the powder spread around the immediate vicinity of the factory, leaving a fine cocoa dusting. The company said one car was lightly coated, and that it has offered to pay for any cleaning needed – but hasn’t yet been taken up on the offer.

    They went way off topic and on an extreme tangent there, but the one guy made a peach joke about impeach and the second one referenced the classic English language children's book James and the Giant Peach by Roal Dahl, who also wrote the story Willie Wonka was based on.

    I think the chicken soup they've been serving in hospital here is vegetarian. It must be because I have yet to find any chicken in it. The bread roll probably has more chicken content. At this point, I'd settle for a feather.

    Fasting Muslims cannot drink water. It's haram or trefah for them. Kosher is halal for Muslims to eat or drink btw. Since kosher is like a more strict form of halal. So halal = kosher + additional things.

    B seems to be both ignorant and wrong. I'm guessing A wants to talk about the fact that SARS-CoV-2 came from a virus laboratory in Wuhan (which has pretty much been accepted by everyone as true by now). There is also this theory that this virus is man made (probably with 'good intentions' to study the virus family and what diffrent possible mutations could be like). This is not proved to be definitely true, but it is very plausible. Fun fact: just weeks before Joe Biden went public and wanted the UN to look in to the lab theory because everything points to it, the Swedish government made a public statement claiming this to be a conspiracy theory and fake news :D

    Well, we're millennials.. we had a baby.. and a birth plan.. and the best piece of advice I can give anyone is to take that birth plan and throw it out the window! Stuff happens, suddenly pain killers become very attractive, and for my wife it ended in a cesarean. We read the plan now and laugh! I mean would you go to a dentist and say "no thanks, I want this root canal done the natural way.." So "rolling" with it is about as good advice as I could give anyone. (Also, I am aware all I did was "be there" as my warrior of a wife powered through the birth of our daughter for 28hrs!)

    All the advice we got when preparing for the birth was that birth plans rarely go to plan as there are too many variables and ultimately you will end up being disappointed. Go with the flow is the official advice, at least outside of the US. I suppose if giving birth cost you 30K you want to get you moneys worth!

    This isn't uncommon. Not a lot of restaurants want you buying someone else's food to celebrate their own grand opening. It does become...tiresome when you have groups who are forbidden to use the other's tools. Want to have fun - try to get an IBMer, Apple guy, and someone from Google together remotely and have them discuss how to make your banking app start showing transactions again after the update failed.

    Sexual dimorphism is very common, especially in birds. They also have different names (gander, drake, rooster, hen, ram, ewe etc) depending on their gender. This is a teaching moment, not one of mockery. Since kids are read the "Ugly Duckling" to teach them you can be butt ugly and grow out of it, its not a big leap to think swans are the same species but just look different when they grow up.
