In response to the letter earlier this month about two engaged coworkers the place one was dishonest with one other coworker, somebody shared this hilarious story:
We had a state of affairs the place two managers (married to different individuals) had been seeing one another. They thought they had been being discreet however … they actually weren’t. The man’s spouse labored elsewhere within the firm. The lady was divorced. They’d journey to her home collectively on particular nights. A couple of coworkers took the identical bus. The key couple didn’t sit collectively. The feminine supervisor’s cease was the second cease, so a number of of the coworkers would make some extent of speaking to the male supervisor, who couldn’t get off the bus when he wished and would find yourself using to the tip of the route the place he’d have to attend for the return bus. The coworkers took turns doing this (“Hey! Since when are you on this bus line?”) simply to drive the managers loopy. A few occasions, somebody would experience again within the different path too. (“Oops! I forgot I’m assembly my spouse two cities over! Why are you using again this fashion?”) We’d additionally provide you with methods to delay one or the opposite of them after they had been attempting to go away collectively. It was infantile however actually satisfying. They had been horrible individuals.
We clearly want to debate dishonest at work — coworkers dishonest on coworkers, coworkers dishonest with coworkers, and associated drama. Please share within the remark part.
