rehmwa 2 #3 December 6, 2006 "so, when are we going to break wind on this project?" (for those from other parts, "breaking ground" is a term for starting the physical work of a project, comes from digging the first shovelful of dirt in a building project) ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

co_sky_pirate 0 #8 December 7, 2006 These are all great! I was in a meeting about a client Xmas card the other day and my boss said, "What, are you kidding?! Of course, Christians LOVE beer!" Maybe you just had to be there, but I still laugh at that one. There's something about the smell of jet fuel, nylon, and adrenaline that gives me a huge boner.

grue 1 #15 December 7, 2006 We had a hellaciously long meeting at work one time, I'd been there for all of like a week. Hottest girl there stands up and goes "GOD my ass hurts", and before I could punch myself in the face or hit my head on the table, I found myself saying "But surely he at least bought you dinner first?" cavete terrae.

McDuck 0 #19 December 7, 2006 I did something less inflammatory in that sense, but no less edgy, at a meeting about a new time card system. There were some anti-change fogeys griping about how the union should be at the meeting and how these people weren't going to let this change stand without a fight with the union on their side. When the room got quiet from the utter disbelief of the rest of the participants and the instructors, I used my best Ralph Wiggum voice and said loudly, "Change scares me. I'm calling the UNION." That went over like a turd in a punchbowl with the complainers, but everyone else loved it.

Icon134 0 #21 December 7, 2006 I'm sure I've had some good ones... but this it the only one I can remember... at the moment. When I was a 2nd Lt with about 4 months in I was tasked to go to a base level meeting (wrt base exercises)...at the end of the meeting while sitting through it and having no idea what was going on the Base Inspector General went around the room and asks everyone if they have any questions... when he gets to me I present the most confounded look I can muster and declare that "I have no idea what just happened here..." sometimes being a 2nd Lt has its perks... its really too bad I'm not an Lt anymore...Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

2fat2fly 0 #22 December 7, 2006 I was in a "decide who gets laid off" meeting when one of the other managers referred to a person on the list and said "I heard a rumor that they had to retake their drug test because they failed the first one" I replied "That was 15 years ago, 15 years ago, I wouldn't have passed a drug test and you guys have been pretty happy with me" I just didn't thing that you should bring up old rumors when you're dealing with someone's livelihood The look on the HR manager's face was pricelessI am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jkbernstein 1 #23 December 7, 2006 Not exactly a meeting, but just yesterday, I was in the office with one of the staff I supervise and my supervisor. We were talking about trainings, and how much I hate them. My supervisor said, "Then you're gonna hate me, because I have to send you to an all-day First Aid/CPR training to renew your certification." I groaned and started complaining. The staff person (who is male) said, "But those trainings are fun, 'cause you get to blow a dummy!" As my supervisor and I became hysterical, he realized what he said, and corrected himself, "I mean blow INTO a dummy!" (which really wasn't much better). Just then my cell phone rang; it was an ex-boyfriend of mine. I wanted SO BADLY to say, "And here's a dummy I've blown now!" But in addition to the trouble I would've gotten into, I was laughing to hard to say anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
