Office Gossip

[Eastonell]

I’m a big fan of an office scandal and what better place to feed my weird habits than troll central!

Please share your favourite office gossip stories so I can sit with a glass of wine and lap it all up

One of my faves was when one of the admin girls where I used to work who was 20 at the time ended up in bed with the MD’s brother after the Christmas party. He was pushing 50. He had shares in the company so he was always around and would never miss a company piss up. But anyways 9 months later we get an all staff email congratulating her on the birth of her baby boy...he never came to another Christmas party again

Two colleagues (one male 50s one female early 20s) used to like to get in the office early in the morning. One was a cyclist and would get changed in the open plan office and female colleague would see him naked everyday. He would even hang his sweaty boxers on the radiator to dry .

A complaint went in that female member of staff didn’t like seeing naked colleague every morning. Male colleague didn’t understand the issue and one morning was escorted from the building

That is grim!! Imagine having your morning cuppa at your desk and there’s Jim from Accounts swishing his saggy balls about the office!

I used to work for a very large UK based holiday firm. There were about 350 staff in the office and it literally seemed that everyone was shagging everyone. There was the usual stuff, affairs, drug use in the toilets (particularly of a weekend when no management were on shift), people coming in drunk etc.

One thing that sticks in my mind was a Christmas party. The firm always put on a massive party with free drinks on arrival, money behind the bar throughout the evening etc. It was a really good night. The call centre staff who were all mainly fresh out of college so 18 - 25 would always get ridiculously drunk as you do at that age and make a show of yourself. There was this one girl in particular who was 18, she was really drunk and everyone had noticed. Everyone kept referring to her as Pocohontas because she was wearing this beige outfit (it did look like a Pocohontas fancy dress to be fair). Anyway, later on in the evening, one of the rather confident young lads decided to borrow the DJ's mic and shouted "Pocohontas is getting doggied on the terrace". Everyone of course ran in that direction and there she was, getting done doggy style on the terrace by one of the marketing boys whilst sucking off one of the call centre boys. Even having an audience didn't stop her (must've been the booze). Poor girl was mortified when we returned to work after Christmas. I think "Pocohontas is getting doggied on the terrace" is a phrase that will stay with me for life.

At an old job one of the PA 's in her late twenties was having it off with one of the manager's who was in his fifties. He was married she was single. The affair was an open secret. We had to go to a three day conference to York he'd made mention of the fact that his wife was coming along so she could do some sight seeing and shopping We all (not the wife) got together on the first evening for a meal and a few drinks. We'd all got a bit tiddly. At the end of the evening he asked her up to his room. She said to him what about your wife and he waved his hand up and said dont worry about that, it won't be a problem. She thought they must be in separate rooms so agreed. He said he needed to make a quick call and went into the foyer then called her thru and off they went. PA reappeared five mins later with the colour drained from her face. She said they got up to the bedroom and the wife was laying on the bed naked. PA said the wife patted the bed and said 'Don't be shy pet, I'm very generous, me. I don't mind sharing him now pop your gear off and let me have a look at you'
She never went near him again after that and three months or so down the line she left the company. I've heard much worse stories from friends about work affairs and in general debauched goings on.

Sorry I have never ending stories

2020 story.... work colleague seems distracted, lives alone during lockdown and always in the city centre apartment on daily zoom calls.

Turns out work colleague has had been using a fake background of her apartment on teams calls and has been illegally travelling to New York (via Mexico) and other countries over the course of the year.

Found out via public Instagram account and sacked remotely via management

Former colleague still in USA with works IT equipment

Two members of staff caught shagging in the park in the bushes in broad daylight during work hours when they should have been in the office

Made the local papers

During my time working for an IT company, I did come across a rather stuck-up PA for a departmental manager bean-flicking herself in one of the cubicles of the ladies loos one evening when I was working a night-shift.

I knew it was her even though I never actual saw her because she had a distinctive voice and a nagging squealing giggle. She was clearly getting off thinking of her boss, judging by her mumbling and groaning.

Could never quite keep a straight face talking to her after that

In my last retail job, my coworker (makes €10 an hour, 40 hours a week) and paid for her live-in, still married, boyfriend's rent and CHILD MAINTENANCE because he was “broke.” and "getting back on his feet". He also worked for us as a relatively new hire, but in another branch. One of the really nice guys working in that branch pointed out to my co-worker that when they went out for staff drinks, her boyfriend was buying drinks for everyone and something seemed amiss. A few days later, she came into work fuming. She 'found' a bank receipt of his.. he had €17k in his current account!!

Another member of staff was caught running an escort agency online during work time on a works computer, he had also recruited some of the junior members of staff to be on it

I worked in an Estate Agents when I was teenager, it was a family run business and the main bosses son was the manager for our office. He was nice enough, expect he would come in every morning and do the smelliest shit imaginable that would stink the whole office out. It was only a small office with a tiny kitchen and toilet, so was hard to get from that. He also used to wipe his arse with newspaper which then blocked the toilet. It wasnt unusual to find bits of The Sun floating in the loo after he’d been in. I suppose that’s the best use for The S*n though.

I caught my former boss at the Christmas party on her knees giving a blow job to a higher up management boss, with her dentures in her hand. I shut the door quietly. As juicy as it was for gossip I never told anyone. It was worth it, I had a really easy time at work after that but it was never mentioned between us. After she retired the job became so horrible I left.

Mini pavlovas could work- mini meringue nests with a little whipped cream and some fruit

Banana bread is also a great shout

That is some salacious gossip!

2 spring to mind from an old office, apart from the usual shagging etc.

One day our big boss appeared who never came to our office unless planned. He was really on edge all morning then went for a chat with a member of staff. This bloke was so quiet, never talked, head down working all day. The boss came back and told us we wouldn't be seeing X again. Turns out he was book keeper for his church and had nicked over £25k We spent days googling him and found all sorts out. Really is the quiet ones you need to watch!

2nd one was a bloke got sacked as a security guard caught him with his trousers down, pleasuring himself whilst wearing a pair of ladies heels she had left under her desk (used to come in comfies and change her shoes). It went to tribunal and he got his job back on the basis of he got sacked for stealing and he was only borrowing the shoes

I’m in my first job after finishing uni... office culture came as a huge huge shock prepare yourself for the first Christmas night out and don’t be the one to snog someone’s face off (not taking from experience at all)

Oh the post Xmas party shame/fear. Walking back into the office is a treat. I do this to myself all too often. I never frigging learn.

 

[rather not stop]

Parking my ass here. Love a good office scandal!

This has killed me "don't be shy pet" not got any juicy gossip myself just here for all the other tea

I do have one. From way back when I was in sales.

One of our consultants was dealing with a big, big company in the Middle East. He screen grabbed something to send to them and forgot he had a porn hub tab open. Fail.

Being a student I have not yet worked a day in my life and so have nothing of note to contribute, salacious or otherwise. This is eye opening.

*writes notes* ...everyone shags in the office

Hm. Quite looking forward to starting work now.

This is just awful but it provided so much gossip for ages.

A woman joined our office. On her very first day, she told one of the quieter guys in the office that she was unhappy in her marriage and loathed having children, and asked whether he wanted to make her an offer. I kid you not. She said this to him in the kitchen, in front of several people. She hadn't even been introduced to him!

He took up with her "for fun"; when she became clingy and annoying he distanced himself from her, at which point she threatened to tell his wife about them if he didn't leave her. He thought she was bluffing so didn't do a thing; next thing, his wife turned up at work with all his clothes and personal effects, called him from the carpark and told him to go to the window, and then proceeded to drive over everything, back and forth ... ruining everything in the process. He didn't have anywhere else to go so moved in with the fling at this point.

Fast forward a couple of years and several of us had left this place of employment by that stage, but several people still kept in contact with the guy. It turned out that the woman seemed intent on ruining his life for goodness knows what reason. Not only did she break up his marriage and pretty much halt any sort of contact he had with his kids, but she also framed him for embezzlement (at this point, they were running a small business together). He actually served time and because he can't prove his innocence, he is stuck with a record. He does have a job, but because of his criminal history his professional reputation is in tatters.

This woman, meanwhile, has gone on to marry someone who used to be one of the managers at our old place of employment, who was fully aware of all that happened - how stupid is he?! This woman has a certain prowess that men find hypnotic; it'll be only a matter of time before she ruins this guy's life too for whatever reason she dreams up, and moves on to her next victim. So far she's been married 3 times and has 4 children, who she never sees. And she's only mid-30s!

She is NOT attractive, which is the weird part! She is quite short and dumpy-looking, but wears shortish skirts and matching (tight) suit jackets and extremely high heels with black stockings - it's her uniform. She has this air of arrogance about her and wears her hair super short - not cute and pixie-like; more frumpy-and-I-don't-care style. She doesn't even wear make-up. Sorry if this all sounds bitchy but I just do not get what men see in her. If she was gorgeous I would absolutely understand.
