WTF co-workers

I came into work this morning to find an 18-inch double-ended dildo on my chair.

"The Dildo Award" is what my one co-worker called it.

Uh, thanks guys...

What did you do to earn that one?

[identity profile] giza.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It is company policy never to imply ownership in the event of a dildo. We use the indefinite article *a* dildo, and never *your* dildo.

I like how the dildo is treated as an occasion rather then an object. =3

Your welcome!

[identity profile] ken-redtail.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
so, uh, I hate to ask how you earned it...

He wasn't at the meeting on Monday :)

Man, what a dildo....

[identity profile] simbab.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
No, what they need to do is have one installed in your chair so you can work and play at the same time. XD

[identity profile] alphaggek.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
We considered it, but we didn't have the proper tools to do it in the time frame we had :)

Are you being moved into product testing?

more importantly...

Is product testing being moved into you?

[identity profile] smack-jackal.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh...But is it a revolving award that lands on various coworkers' chair (like our Keyboard Goat for leaving your screen unlocked) or special award for merit above and beyond the call of duty?

[identity profile] smack-jackal.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome! Too bad HR frowned so heavily on our ball-gag award for people who talked too much, I'd love to re-institute that one at my office.

Now of course we all want to know who's going to be on the other end.

[identity profile] gen-talon.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe they are following your style. Insted of cards you will find dildos laying all over the place.

Could be worse, at least it wasnt a Zeta or something :D

[identity profile] eddiddiums.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
A zeta would be worse, why?

[identity profile] zealianbadass.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
double ended, and only 18 inches? Slacker. *grins*

[identity profile] xshengx.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh wow haha XD
Thats a bit of a surprise. Lawd.

Sounds like something that comes with the territory of your particular workplace ;)

[identity profile] felix-carni.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
If that ever happen to me at my workplace, I would run away screaming and not look back.. ever!

[identity profile] mapdark.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
What on earth did you do to desrve it? o.O


[identity profile] talvinm.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
You're SURE it's (just) a Dildo?

It might be a wireless webcam.

Step right up! Perform your own colonoscopy, only $9.95!

Hmm. Hard to tell whether it's a good sign that your co-workers know/suspect some personal details about you, don't care, and are being good-natured about it... or whether they know/suspect some personal details about you, don't like it, and are now harrassing you about it. Up to you to decide based on your work environment.

If it happened to me at work, I know I'd make sure everyone knew I thought it was HILARIOUS, that I didn't feel threatened at all, only amused - but secretly I'd be worried about the motivations behind it.

They know all about furry and that I was at MFF last weekend and didn't care.

I have no worries whatsoever about the motivations of folks involved. It truly was hilarious.

OK - that's pretty cool then. :)

~giggles~ I'm surprised that they managed to get away with doing that.. and to an earlier comment about gorilla glue... reminds me of a story a friend told me.. the took one of the 3' long pick double-ender, cut it in half and used glue to affix it to either end of his car LOL. So giza, it could have been worse. ~snicker~

Well...congratulations to that =D I guess you did...something, whether it be right or wrong. Did ya take pix of the occasion?

[identity profile] rigelkitty.livejournal.com 2008-11-25 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
The question isn't what you did to get it, it's what are you going to do with it?

[identity profile] miami-pony.livejournal.com 2008-11-26 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Dibs!

[identity profile] wildw0lf.livejournal.com 2008-12-07 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
