I've only ever heard negative stories from people who've dated coworkers in the service industry. Especially when it's something like food where everyone's in tight quarters, bumping into each other and stuff.

I used to work with this gross creep (he's not much older than I am) who chased me for 2 years, relentlessly. He'd even send me creepy messages online, try to ask people for my phone number, look down my shirt if he felt so inclined, etc. I never gave him the time of day. He was also married and had a daughter with a wife whose self esteem was so destroyed by his behavior around other women that she completely shut down emotionally. He always talked shit about her, saying that she was ugly and frigid.

He saw that he was getting nowhere with me, so he slept with another one of my coworkers. He got her pregnant. She carried the child to full term. I don't know if they ever talk to one another anymore, but the grossest part of this entire story is that this guy has been seeing this other chick I used to work with (at a different store) for a couple years now.

Workplace creeps... ugh.

I met and started dating my wife while we worked together at a nursing home. She worked in the kitchen and I was maintenance. One of my perks was getting a free meal which she'd put together for me. We'd sit in the kitchen and talk and that's how it all started almost 35 years ago.

^that's what i'm saying. think about it you spend most of your time at this place cause you have to be there. why wouldn't you be on the prowl during that time if you're single.

Met my wife working at a pizza place 30 years ago and still going strong. Good way to really get to know someone.

I met one of my exes at work, years ago. We almost got married.

But...

Spoiler for here's why we didn't:
he was in and out of jail because he was busted for some ... questionable...materials on his computer.
his fetishes were way too fucked up.
his taste in music was awful.
he was really immature.
he was so socially awkward at times that it was painful to be out with him.
despite being a pretty nice guy, he could have killed me in cold blood and not felt bad about it.
he had to go away for special therapy and brought home a male escort one night.
99% sure I would have caught something from him eventually.


almost 5 years later, his mother seems to think there's a chance I'll change my mind.

yeah, we got to know each other.

and it was a fucking disaster.

TFW you see that love doesn't last for you as long as it does for other people :wavey:

Pet_Sounds 11-27-2014 05:59 AM

TFW Ki changes his avatar. :(

The Batlord 11-27-2014 06:25 AM

Yeah, his new one (which I'm actually pretty sure is an old one) isn't nearly as good.

Sorry man. The Cobain/kitty avatar was growing stale. It's not bad by any means, but I needed something new.

Mondo Bungle 11-27-2014 08:07 PM

You go over to your friends house and sit there in the dark and silence while they sleep for the rest of the day

ladyislingering 11-27-2014 08:13 PM

tfw you should probably make a new avatar for creativity's sake.

Isn't that just the most awkward **** ever? It's like, I'm at their house, so it's not like I can just go eat something out of the fridge or start messing with their stuff, and they're sleeping, so I can't go making a bunch of noise. So unless I just leave, I'm basically in limbo.

simplephysics 11-27-2014 08:34 PM

At that point why don't you just... leave?

DwnWthVwls 11-27-2014 09:27 PM

Seriously. Why are you even there?

Key 11-27-2014 09:31 PM

Yeah man like for real dawg.

ladyislingering 11-27-2014 09:35 PM

easier to kill someone while they're still asleep.

that's why all the black widows hang out at Batlord's place.

Mondo Bungle 11-27-2014 09:36 PM

I live in a different town and haven't got anywhere else to go, but it's all cool now

No car, and we're generally nursing hangovers.

TFW your cat comes to you for a cuddle and sleep against your naked body.

ladyislingering 11-28-2014 08:13 AM

tfw there's a line longer than a full city block at the bookstore next door.

At 7am.

Because Americans are ridiculous.

Fair enough. I have an a strange inability to recover from a night of drinking at someone else's place, I usually depart as soon as I wake up for home. I just don't feel comfortable with my head in a toilet other than my own.

LiL I feel you. Today's my moms birthday so I need to go out to find her a gift, I think the drugstore might be the only safe bet I have.

Oh geez, I forgot. Pity you Americns on days like this. :p:

Cuthbert 11-28-2014 09:08 AM

Not just Americans. It's become a thing here now. Bellstrikes fighting each other over tellies and ripping things off the shelves not caring what is even in the box. Supermarkets have closed within the hour.

Proper bottom of the barrel behaviour.

The Batlord 11-28-2014 09:18 AM

The **** is a bellstrike?

ladyislingering 11-28-2014 10:43 AM

My store opened 40 minutes ago and I already want to gas these people.

GuD 11-28-2014 08:36 PM

tfw you wanted mushrooms with your pasta dinner but you put them too far back in the fridge and now they're frozen and pretty much only suitable for some kinda mushroom soup.

tfw you don't know if you should be happy about making mushroom soup or sad about no mushrooms with pasta.

I had an egg carton get stuck to the back of the fridge. It was a pain in the ass to clean before I left the boarding house to where I am now.

John Wilkes Booth 11-28-2014 08:57 PM

i went to walmart on black friday for some random **** i needed for lunches for the weekend. it was crazy timing cause i remembered i needed some stuff the night before my week starts (i work fri/sat/sun), which just happened to be black friday and its such a small town that walmart was basically the only store that sold food that would still be open so i went.

its funny cause i used to work at walmart in florida and they'd force us to work on black friday and we'd have to deal with all the savages. people lost their civility real quick in a mob type situation for some reason. anyway it was sort of fun to just go in and be one of the people and push everyone out of my way cause you really can't say **** on black friday and then go up to the cash register which wasn't even as long a line as usual cause every register is open and buy some random food **** like ramen noodles and an italian sub, and have the cashier look at you like you crazy mother****er who comes out here and deals with this **** just to buy some food. i felt like sticking around to watch the savages fight over their kids presents when they cut the shrink wrap but i had to work the next day and had to prioritize.

I always laugh so hard when I hear that song because everyone knows that feeling of "I bought this food like 7 months ago and now it's unrecognizable" :laughing:

Tell me about it. I always forget about food I'm supposed to use lol.

TFW your nipples are itchy.

Key 11-28-2014 09:10 PM

TFW you wear water proof boots for work, and your socks still get wet from the rain.

DwnWthVwls 11-29-2014 02:28 AM

TFW you find out you're racist.
