Things I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere. All are from places I've worked; some may be from places we've both worked; some of them might have been me.

- The guy who wore headphones all the time, bounced around, sand aloud with his music, and played occasional air guitar.

- The guy who was constantly drumming on every surface nearby, in his cube, at meetings, etc.

- The girl who always ended your sentences for you, sometimes muttered under her breath.

- The VP who kept trying to nudge the company in the direction of the porn industry.

- The CEO who openly discussed his, probably ceased, meth habit, and gave people tips on passing drug tests.

- The new-employee hazing which included getting up in front of everyone and telling an embarassing funny anecdote about yourself. (I actually skipped out on that one completely.)

- The employees who ordered a monogrammed wooden combination bottle opener and dildo shipped to the VP at the office.

- The employee who emailed the whole company at 3am apologizing for his poor understanding of appropriate office behavior. And who later on wandered around with a guitar serenading management. And who was a week or so late coming back to work because he didn't have enough money to fly back from Spain.

- The CEO who was pre-op transgendered and presented professionally as female - except when government customers were visiting, when he expected everyone to know that he was presenting male.
