The NAR 100,000th Story Celebration! Stories #71-80: Not Always Working

| Right | April 12, 2023

Dear readers,

It’s time for another roundup for our 100,000th Story Celebration! Today, we’re looking at our second-largest category, where we bemoan bad bosses, curse calamitous coworkers, and grumble about that one barista that never seems to get our order right. Yup, it’s the Not Always Working category! Since its inception in 2012, this category has gathered over 14,000 stories from our readers!

Pull out your lunchbox (if the resident Office Lunch Thief hasn’t taken it) and enjoy these ten stories from Not Always Working!

 

Fart Jokes Exist In A Vacuum – Well, that’s one way to encourage an equipment upgrade…

The Bosses Need To Clean Up Their Act – Cleaning staff are the ones who really run the world.

That Isn’t Naturally Where Your Mind Should Go – Those pesky homophones will get you every time.

Taxing Faxing Over And Over – Hits from the comments: “Strange that no one made a fax-shredder combo. It would’ve been very popular with companies that employ idiots.”

Named And Shamed, Part 6 – Hits from Hamilton: “And when you said, ‘Hi,’ I forgot my dang name…”

Dusting Off The Scum – Hits from the comments: “And I would have gotten away with it, too, if not for that meddling janitor delivery boy!”

They’re Vibrating On A Different Frequency – Newsflash, kiddo: “old” people still frickle-frackle.

A Decision To Have The Perfect Comeback – Well, excuuuuuse me for doing my job.

Workplace Daddy Issues – A textbook example of the difference between connotation and denotation.

The Epic Of The Impossible Store – We’d be remiss if we didn’t include this truly incredible tale. Known as “The Trash Room” by our regulars, this is one of our longest and most popular stories ever!
