Work Stories: Episode 70: Bad Moon Rising

In the previous Work Story, I wrote about catching people having sex in the museum bathroom.   I wrote about how I made everything awkward and got them to leave on their own terms.   I wrote about how I knew it was going to happen before it happened.   That was that Work Story.   This is going to be this week’s Work Story.   Fasten your seatbelts.   This is number 70. I’d like to take a moment to remind you why the 70 th post in the Work Stories saga is an important one.   Way back at post number 10, I decided that each Work Story post would be about the three-ish weeks of my life I spent working at two New Year’s Eve concerts in my city.   I say three-ish weeks because it was about a week and a half each time, and it was twice that I did it.   Therefore, it’s about three-ish weeks total.   I’ve written about the loading dock problem, the lighting tower collapse, the squirrels, the coworker having sex with another coworker’s mom, and a few other things.   Okay.   Two other th

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Season 1, Episode 38, A Bad Reflection on You

When I watch Mighty Morphin Power Rangers , something I look forward to is a good episode that can drive the overall story of the series forward.   That hardly ever happens because the show is episodic rather than serialized.   So you have to look at the individual episodes to figure out whether or not the show is progressing well enough to be considered good. A big part of the different episodes is the villain.   Besides Rita Repulsa and her usual entourage of Goldar, Scorpina, Squatt, Baboo, and Finster, there are the monsters of the episode.   The best ones are a formidable threat rather than something to simply fight for fighting’s sake.   They raise the stakes and make the situation tough for the heroes.   These villains are more realistic, in the sense that the idea behind them isn’t ludicrous. In the episode of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers , there was a good villain.   It was a villain that I imagine could have worked in a multiple episode arc.   For whatever reas

Work Stories: Episode 69: Wow, Perfect Number Much

Previously in the Work Stories, I wrote about a child with a wad of money.   But that money wasn’t any normal money that you would find laying around.   It was Canadian Tire money.   A big, old wad of Canadian Tire money.   And she showed it to me for no reason at all.   Yeah, that was an exciting story wasn’t it?   This week’s story is definitely going to be more exciting.   Get ready for that. There was one time when I wrote about a coworker who caught some people having sex in the bathroom.   Which post was it… Let me check.   The 29 th Work Story was the one that covered that one.   Well, this week I have my own story about catching people having sex in the bathroom.   I now have a personal experience with that kind of thing happening and it’s one that I am going to share with you.   Are you ready for it? I was at work getting ready to have my break and eat something.   I went to the washroom before I ate.   Not only did I want to wash my hands, but I wanted to eat wi
