37. Not One More
I used to work at a call center and there was a really annoying and attention-starved girl. Now this was a massive call center with like 15 floors, all different departments taking calls and making cold calls. She worked on a different floor but she was notorious.
Well one time I’m on the elevator and she’s there. Some dude gets on and he smells like smoke. She says (to no one), “If one more person gets on the elevator and smells like smoke, I’m gonna SCREAM”. Me and the other dude just totally ignored her because we know engaging her in any way would only escalate the situation.
Sure enough another fella gets on the elevator and he smells like smoke. She took in a powerful SNIFFFFFFF and then SCREAMED at the top of her lungs before the doors even closed. The elevator had very reflective acoustics (fancy glassed surfaces) and it felt like someone stabbed me in the ear.
Anyway the people on that last floor filed a complaint because that scream scared customers that they were trying to sell, a few people said they lost sales because of it.
She got fired. Finally
