And it Goes Like This

[Maha]

Went out to my first job this morning, I turn into the road and see the customer Jim hosing down the road...
I go around Jim and to reverse up his driveway but had to say something to him, and it goes like this...
''That wont grow Jim''
He relpies '' I just lost my dog''
''Oh my God I am so sorry for what I just said''

Dog was hit by the rubbish truck moments before....
I ended up apologising to him about three times, but I wasn't to know.
Doesn't make you feel any better though eh?...

Ahh bollocks, doncha hate that when it feels like you've gone and stuffed both your feet down your gob!

One of those 'I hope the ground swallows me' moments.

[munster]

I did that the other day.

Lady at work turned up and I asked "Why are you dressed like you're going to a funeral?"

She said "cause I am"

"DOH!"

[MadDuck]

Its like the time the boss met a female customer at a meeting....

"Whens the baby due"....turned into when the hell will the ground swallow me up

OOPS.

I work in the centre of town and go down Manchester Street to get to work - this is where the call girls (hags) work from.

On Fridays I notice is is pretty much 'casual friday' for the office workers walking to work. I have noticed that many of the office girls I see daily who are usually dressed in a suit or similar Mon-Thursday, turn up on casual Fridays resembling a call girl.
On Fridays I have been tempted to call out the window of my car and ask the office girls what they charge!
Bawahahahaha

but I don't, because it would be mean and horrid and it would be just my luck that one of Mrs B's friends would see me applying my Friday 'joke' and think I am really picking up some scrubber.

The receptionist at a firm I worked for dropped a clanger once. Dude rocks up with a guide dog, he is blind of course. She asks him who his appointment is, to kindly take a seat, oohh, I love your dog, did you watch the All Blacks at the weekend and would you like to look at the Herald?

It was her well rehearsed welcome routine....

More 'doh' than a bread factory.....

These places that have signs advertising "We Welcome Seeing Eye Dogs" crack me up.
If the guy can't see and the dog can't read for who's benefit is the sign?

I used to work in a bottler once upon a past life (ah, the good days).

Regular customer (nice guy) comes in looking like shit, on top of his regular 6 pack he has a bottle of whisky...

"How ya doing mate"
"Not good"
"Really, why's that"
"My son died this morning - he was hit by a car".
"Take it".

[Mully]

Alright then.

Got a customer who wanted their cargo delivered on the Thursday.

Me: "Can't do Thursday, how about Friday morning?"
"Oh no, X (boss, small company) doesn't work Fridays, so we can't process the shipment on Fridays."
"Oh OK. Nice for for the boss, having long weekends."
"She doesn't work Fridays cos her husband died last year and she has to look after her kids"
"Eep"

That one ended up with a phone call complaint to my boss.

[far queue]

A few years ago the wife of a mate from work rang in one morning ...
Her "X won't be in to work today"
"Ahh, right, got some work to do on the car has he ... chuckle, chuckle"
"No, his mother died last night"
"Ahhh" followed by furious back peddling on my part
