Question of the Week suggestions
Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Inappropriate Work Behaviour
My mate Furious 'D' (who is rapidly gaining legendary status) used to work at a bank. Now they had something like 'loyalty points' that you earned for attendance / suggestions and such shite. It took him about six months to get enough points to order a free DVD, and when he finally got the order form, filled out a request for 'Anal Intruders 4', with the intention of jokingly faxing it to his mate in another department. Trouble is, the bell-end mistakenly faxed it through to head office and was up for a disciplinary quicker than shit through a goose.
...
Also, same FD, same bank...Went on a 'team building' course with a 'day at the races' missed the 'get to know each other tea & chat' and headed straight to the bar where he proceeded to work his way through a slab of Carling. At the very end of the day, he remembered he had been given a 'token' £20 to put on a horse...it was the very last race...he had done cock-all...he knew nowt about gambling...& he was rat-arsed. He put it all down on the first horse on the list and it romped in netting him something like £200, the receipt of which prompted him to shout "FUCK MY ARSE!" at the top of his pissed-up voice in front of all his colleagues and half the directors of the bank (which starts with 'L' and ends in loyds TSB by the way).
He doesn't work there anymore...your accounts are safe.
Anybody else out there done something (or not done something) at work which got you the sack, or should have got you the sack, but didn't, perhaps due to liberal bosses or sexual favours or something? I dunno...
Fill yer boots!
