Not my job, but TD’s. I was waiting for him in his office at work for him to finish up. He was busy at his computer, I was reading and looking out his 7th story window. I looked down onto the roof top to the 5 story building next to his, and there was a couple having sex on the roof. I brought it to his attention, and next thing you knew there were a dozen engineers watching the show. When they were done, did you all yell out the window 'Encore!'

My aunt's company fired a guy for watching porn all the time at work. Nothing that brought the FBI to their door though. I mentioned earlier my employer had a three step appeal process if an employee felt they were treated unfairly. I also mentioned as an HR rep ai sat in on the step one hearings. For five years I also worked on the step three hearings which were decided by the company CEO and other senior VPs (The Board). My job was to write up what took place at step one and two and add any additional information which was left out of the first two step summaries. Prior to the case which I will shortly mention shortly the board members always wondered what exactly an employee was looking at when they were terminated for watching porn on company computers and time. Well the next port case happened to be assigned to me. I contacted the terminated employees manager and ask him for about half a dozen examples of the point found on the employee's computer. I added the pictures to my executive summary for their review by the board members. The employee's termination was upheld (and final) and the company CEO stated no need for porn pictures in the future. They got the idea what exactly employee's terminated for porn spend their time viewing.

I was observing in a class. A student blows up and as he was marching out he told the teacher to, "Fuck Off!". The teacher said, "Wait. Just to be clear. You want me to have sexual relations with a bug spray?" The rest of the class appreciated it.

One place I worked was good about early warning people. Once there was the policy posted on view pornography onsite. They did catch one of the supervisors. Another time, they posted the policy on access file folders by unauthorized people. The files cabinets were out in the open and open to the public but accessed by an employee. Nothing sensitive that required a written request and exactly what the document was. Open records law. I did the filing. One office politics type person called the police and said I was digging through the files. When several people got back from lunch since I was in the office alone, they verified my job position. That was a double prank. Edit. The best job this clown would ever have was facilities manager at the state capital building. He points out to two office staff rabbits congressing. Woops, fired.

We had a guy come in one morning and quit his job, and then turn around and break up with a gal on the staff he was dating. Broke up with her in the middle of the office. Not even anywhere private or outside the office. We referred to the whole situation as "Hot Mama and the Dude Who Dumped Her." She still works for us and they did get back together. Living together at the moment, actually. Love is strange.

If happened before I got there, but apparently two coworkers got it on quite regularly in an office. Everyone could hear what was going on...When I was hired, this was pretty much first thing anyone told me. What they didn’t tell me until later was that the office I got was the office they ahem used for their afternoon delight....I felt kind of gross Heebie Jeevies having to use that office, and several seemed to relish telling me...
No, they were NOT fired or reprimanded for it...

Ok. I thought of some more. At job out of college, I had a coworker who threatened to kill the boss. She was taken out in handcuffs.
The same boss had a secretary who was very lazy and mean. She hardly did any work, and I often wondered if she had some dirt on the boss as one time she took his checkbook out and wrote herself a $100 check, and he did nothing. She bragged about it and he just kind of shrugged.
Her wedding was...spectacular... but she was cheap as anything. She had — I’m not kidding — 24 bridesmaids who bebopped down the aisle in spectacular colored gowns, two on each arm of 12 groomsmen. She had an excellent singing voice, but really, did a little too much. She sang “Over the Rainbow coming down the aisle and 2 other numbers during the ceremony. Nobody noticed the groom. It was a nice concert though.
She routinely asked for money. I foolishly lent her $10 for lunch and never saw it again. About a week later she said again “ give me $10”,and then got mad I said no.
Right before her wedding she sent around a basket in the office for people (some not invited to the wedding) to contribute money to pay off her $1000 wedding gown. Keep in mind this was in 1984 money. I don’t know if anyone contributed, but I sure didn’t.
At her reception, she only invited the head bosses and a few friends in (about 20) to actual sumptuous feast. How do I know this? Because I was there with about 150 other slobs, watching them from a glass window. I kid u not. We got carrot sticks. That is the truth.
I was naive and way too nice and proper back then. Please don’t ask me why I invited her to my wedding, as I still haven’t figured that out. I had a very nice reception where everyone was served the same food, and she danced up a storm and had a great time, and also invited an extra guest without asking. She didn’t give me a wedding gift, but that was just par for the course so I didn’t care
Once back in the office she was very angry that I got some compliments from coworkers on my wedding and how much fun people had at the reception. She very loudly said how I wore too much makeup at my wedding (I did not at all) and how she had a lousy time at the reception, even though I had pictures to prove otherwise. ...She danced and smiled all night.
I was so stupid and naive!

The office was the office of the 68 year old guy who was partaking in the office afternoon delight. It was his office!

Our (mostly Chinese) statisticians we’re on floor 2 and my group was on 3. Statisticians got a new secretary but they kept coming upstairs to use my group’s secretary. After a while it got too much for my secretary and she told me, I really didn’t know about this. The new secretary for the stats people was about 6’2” and weighed probably 350’ and shuffled around slowly in bedroom type slippers. The statisticians were too afraid of her to ask for her help. When they asked her to do anything she just grunted and looked down on them. No one wanted to fire her as they thought likely she would sue. We moved to another building and the stats secretary didn’t go with us.

We had a young engineer who was accused of sending dick pics to a temporary employee. Temp showed the email to HR to confirm that it happened. Bet the HR lady was happy to see that.
