Funny Workplace stories

[baronrenfrew]

In 1994 - 1995 I worked at Domino's Pizza in Kingston and we had a weird location; 5 mins north of downtown on a minor highway, but within 8 mins of the military base and of the college dorms....the two biggest delivery areas. We were on a strip mall and were near several apt buildings.

We also had no shortage of "characters" who would drop in (including a "prostitute" who would sometimes stand by a streetlight near our store). Not to mention the characters who worked for us.

One customer was Dave: a redneck in his 50's who had a grizzled beard and worked at a junkyard.

He strolls in one warm November day looking a little shaken. "Oh man...you wouldn't believe what happened to me today! I went huntin this morn with my cousin Bob...got a deer...brought it home...strung it up by the garage...cleaned it and quartered it. Bob puts the deer in his truck and takes it to the butcher. A couple minutes later...i'm hosing down the driveway...SWAT TEAM shows up. Cops on all sides...guns out...it took a few minutes to get things settled down.
It turns out there's an 8 year old girl missing from an apt building two blocks away. No doubt some old feller saw us cleaning the deer and called the cops"
