This is a question Bastard Colleagues

You've all known one. The brown-nosing fucker, the 'comedian', the drunk, the gossip and of course the weird one with no mates who goes bell ringing, looks like Mr Majika and sports a monk's haircut (and is a woman).

Tell us about yours...

Thanks to Deskbound for the idea

You know those office chairs...
...with a single central leg that splays into 5 feet,with a caster at the end of each...? Last place I worked at, the office fattie (sorry, that's what he was) leant back on one, lifting two or three of the feet off the floor and the two remaining load-bearers snapped clean in half.

Actually, some of those arms/legs are badly made.
I bought one from Argos, which snapped the same day.
I took it back and replaced it with the same model which snapped in the exact same spot.

Though in this instance it sounds like tubby broke them by piss-arsing about with it.

Been there, done that...
...and I'd have the T-shirt if I wasn't so damn disorganised.

I've had chairs (mainly from Argos, purveyors of crap that they are) where the pole went through the middle of the splayed bit, I've had chairs where the arms have snapped, and even had chairs like the one described where the legs snapped.

Moral of the story is don't trust office furniture or anything from Argos.
