  • That didnt sound right

    Do you guys ever find that if someone heard part of your conversation out of context... it would sound really dirty

    I book our 8 meeting rooms for staff at work, im constantly asking people if they want to get a room

    I also do the mail for our office, and my coworker over heard this converstation between a fellow coworker and me...

    me- how big is your package?
    them- oh its only average sized
    me- does it need any padding or tape?
    them- no its ready to just stick in the slot
    me- ok shove it in there, I will get it out later

    I walked around the corner to find her killing herself laughing

    by the way, the slot was for outgoing mail, totally innocent!

    anyone else have a dirty sounding conversation that wasnt?

    On a truck day:

    Me: Do you want to stay in the warehouse and do pricing, or put out product?

    Her: Oh, I'll put out.

      All the time.

      However, it's something that doesn't carry over well to the written word. You just have to be there.

        I do that all the time. My favorite is just repeating small bits of conversation back at people in an innocent-sounding voice as if I were asking for clarification, but just enough over the top to let them know I'm up to something.

        Or I'll creatively mishear something that would be incredibly dirty-sounding with a little help.

          One of the items I sell is incense sticks.

          Lady customer: What scents sell well?

          Me: Sex on the beach is good.

          Ummm....

              Setting: Sidewalk just outside the door entering into the karate school. Lots of kids and parents coming and going.

              Mr. M: Instructor
              C: parent #1
              D: parent #2

              Mr. M and C were standing outside the door on the sidewalk talking between classes and had been for about 5 minutes. D walks up on the conversation unbeknownst to Mr. M and C.

              Mr. M: Yeah, I can get it up, but I can't keep it up.
              C: Well, have you tried to get any help with it?
              Mr. M: Yeah, John tried to help, but I still can't keep it up.
              D:

              C is a male talking to Mr. M about getting it up and keeping it up when D walks upon that. Turns out that they were talking about Mr. M's new motorcycle (a ninja) that he was trying to learn how to pop a wheelie. That conversation spread like a wildfire in the karate school for a while.

                  Once a old lady was scanning some dog items on the self-scan. She scanned a large bone and paused, the machine prompted "If you wish to purchase large boner please place it on the belt."

                  Another customer started to laugh and the old lady didn't get why it was funny. When another customer gently explained it the old lady said "oh, so what I wish my husband could do"

                      I said that to my mom and my nephew once.

                      OT, I'm not impressed with Five Guys. It's OK, but I fail to see how anyone can consider their prices to be a fantastic deal.
                      I'm bringing disdain back...with a vengeance.

                      Oh, and your tool box called...you got out again.

                          While I was stressing out about the large amts of work I had that I couldn't do I said

                          "I don't LIKE things in my inbox"

                          the entire office goes silent and then one of my coworkers goes "what did you just say"

                          it's funny on it's own. Funnier when you know that i"m a lesbian.

                            In the lay-a-way department, particularly in those damn trailers they would bring in at Christmas time, it was common to hear this exchange between two associates retrieving packages -

                            "You lift up and I'll pull out."
                            The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

                              Are you kidding? My old job had a white board dedicated to out-of-context quotes... in two different departments!


                              Some were out of context, others were just slip of the tongues:

                              I got put on the board for saying:

                              "Hey! We have two semens! ... I MEAN SEASONS!"
                              (We went from talking about penises to talking about Florida weather)


                              Another of my favorites was:

                              "I wasn't aware of the 13 to 17 year old rule."

                              There was also: "Damnit! He keeps ramming me from behind!"
                              (He was testing a NASCAR game)
