Worst employee stories
From reddit:
One employee over the course of one year. She's since been fired.
The first 30 minutes of my first day she storms into my office, hands on her hips, and says "I'm Vicki!"
"Hi Vicki, I'm [name]."
"I know that you computer people can see everything. And if you hack my bank accounts, I'll sue you!!!"
"Well Vicki, don't use company resources to conduct your personal banking and we shouldn't have a problem."
She didn't speak to me for three months.
Another time I told her to look something up on Wikipedia.
She replies "Oh, I don't use Wikipedia."
"Why not?"
"I don't support the Wiccans."
She denied an insurance claim where a reindeer had bitten a farm-hand on the hand.
"Vicki, why did you deny this claim?"
"Because the insured says he was bitten by a reindeer."
"Yeah.... so?"
(In a very sarcastic tone) "Well, what do you think happened? A reindeer just swooped down out of the sky and bit the guy??"
She didn't know that a reindeer was an actual animal.
She tells me one day her husband is a really great guy because he spends his free time helping to "clean up the internet."
I ask her what she means and she told me she found a bunch of porn in husbands web browser history. He informed her that he goes to porn sites to download the porn off of the internet servers onto his computer so that he can delete it. Apparently there's a lot of porn on the internet, but he was trying to do what he could to remove as much of it as possible - for the children and all...
She actually believes that he is doing this and uses it as a bragging point to show what a great guy her husband is in conversations.
More here.

Victoria's Secret Angels
What does it take to be a Victoria's Secret Angel?
She sees a nutritionist, who has measured her body's muscle mass, fat ratio and levels of water retention. He prescribes protein shakes, vitamins and supplements to keep Lima's energy levels up during this training period. Lima drinks a gallon of water a day. For nine days before the show, she will drink only protein shakes - "no solids". The concoctions include powdered egg. Two days before the show, she will abstain from the daily gallon of water, and "just drink normally". Then, 12 hours before the show, she will stop drinking entirely.

Special SkatersOriginal ad:
Attention all ice skaters and hockey players! Volunteers needed to train children participating in the Special Olympics hockey team. Anyone with adequate skating skill can be used to help teach our athletes to skate. Please call 410-***-**** or respond to the email address above.
JudyFrom Me to ************@**********.org
Judy,
I am writing in response to your ad regarding helping children learn to skate.
I was a legend in minor league hockey until my career was cut short by a career ending injury. I still love the game of hockey though and would love to pass on my skills to your wonderful children. I look forward to hearing from you.
Mike
From Judy ******* to Me:
Mike,
I am sorry to hear about your injury. That is very unfortunate. Are you still able to skate? I only ask because we need someone to skate one-on-one with the children.
Judy
From Me to Judy *******:
Oh yes, I am still able to skate. I think you misunderstood me. My career was cut short because I was banned after causing another player to have a career ending injury. It was an unfortunate accident, but the league came down extremely hard on me. It really wasn't fair, if you ask me.
Mike
