Office Pranks, Office Humor, and Office Stories - One Crazy Office

Here on site there is a fitness center. Only employees are allowed to us it, and if a guard uses it then they will be fired. Not everyone listens to this warning and I guess they think they will not get caught. That is one of the very few things that I didn't do. But I do know a few people who did. This story here is the creme of the crop on those stories.

We had this guard around the end of 2005 and I was the one training him on his first day. And he even made the remark that he wanted to use the fitness center. Well apparently he just didn't want to listen to my advice.

It all started when he was working out in the fitness center one night and a employee came in to do the same. They start talking and he even admitted to the employee that he was not supposed to be working out. He just told the guy that he did not have a gym membership and just wanted to get pumped for his graduation ceremonies that was going to happen the next day from ITT.

Of course the guy sent a email to the supervisor the next day and the guard got a verbal warning. Well you would think hey I got caught once and was able to keep my job, I better do what I am supposed to at least for awhile till the heats off. Well if you thought that then you thought wrong.

The very next night a different employee came in there and saw him working out and he told that guy to that he didn't have a membership and that he wasn't supposed to be in there, BUT it helped him to stay awake and help the night go by faster. The employee said maybe you should sneak in here when no employees are around.

So the supervisor found out again and fired the guy. And I don't know if you were wondering or not, but YES HE WAS IN FULL UNIFORM while he was working out.

This is a pretty cool thing that happened to me the other day. What happened was I got this call on the radio for me to come outside to where this other guard was at. Well I was busy working on my blog, but I ended up having to go out there since it is my real job.

Good thing I did though because when I got outside I saw this guard standing by this little bird. He told me that something was wrong with him, and he didn't know what to do for it. He wouldn't pick it up to examine him though.

Well it ended up being a hummingbird. Which has always been one of my favorites. I knelt beside him and kinda touched him to see what he would do. He didn't even move. So I thought for a second and I picked him up. He started to move a little bit, but only to grab one of my fingers for traction.

I looked him over and he had this feather kinda stuck in his eye or covering his eye. I don't know, but I pulled it out of his eye. Well it was weird because the little guy perked up, but still wouldn't fly off. So I held him for a little bit and then I raised my hand a little higher and the little guy flew like a speeding bullet away to some trees.

It was very cool and how many people can say that they have held a hummingbird.
