Twitter users are sharing the strangest things their coworkers say. It could be something as simple as an enthused "good morning" from a coworker that always seems to wake up on the right side of the bed, while you are busy cursing the daily morning grind. Or maybe, it's genuinely puzzling nonsense from clueless coworkers that has you scratching your head. Some of these might ring a bell.

This woman asked the people of Reddit whether or not she was in the wrong for reporting a class clown of a co-worker who continued to tease her about her name. She took great offense to it, and decided to inform her supervisor about it. He ended up getting fired during the holidays as a result. So, was she in the wrong for running that back to the supervisor, or was her decision absolutely called for?
People overlook the day-to-day frustration of working in retail, service, and anywhere else where you might come into contact with a wild Karen. Anyone who has worked a physically demanding job for very little pay has a special type of appreciation for less demanding work, and a special type of disdain for a life-long office type who's never had to get their hands dirty. This Tumblr user got to see their coworker have a learning moment.
This one seems obvious. Anyone who's worked around heavy machinery knows how important it is to be mindful of your surroundings, yet there's still coworkers out there who can't be bothered to understand how hazardous their own working conditions are. Some coworkers just don't get it, like this Karen who didn't check her email for years. Sometimes it's customers who are a nightmare, like this lady who tried to get a free washer and didn't get her way.
This guy shared a gnarly story of an experience that nobody wants to find themselves living down. Sounds like he was giving a co-worker a hard time, and it turned out said co-worker was busy muddling through a divorce. Just goes to serve as a cautionary tale that you never know what someone's going through. Gotta be careful out there!
This woman shared a brutal story about her jerk co-worker harassing her in all kinds of inappropriate ways over her decision to get breast implants. The reasoning behind her breast implants was because she had cancerous cells. Basically Jill sounds like the absolute worst.
When this woman decided that she wasn't up for her holding her co-worker's baby, and made that known, she proceeded to get shunned by a very critical rest of the office. Was she in the wrong for not wanting to hold the beautiful baby, or was it really just a simple scenario of her exercising her free will? I mean, come on.
Shoutout to the bold employee that shows up thinking he's getting fired, and decides to wear a tuxedo and monocle. Epic. That being said, sounds like the co-worker's "joke" took things a little too far, and had the poor guy convinced that he was getting canned.
This woman asked the people of Reddit whether she was in the wrong for breaking out the bikini while on a work trip. Her co-worker apparently pulled her aside to say that it wasn't appropriate. Was she overstepping with the wardrobe choice, or did her co-worker blow the bikini moment out of proportion? You be the judge.
The level of selfish entitlement that goes into thinking it's okay to demand a cake from a co-worker, and then threaten to bring HR into the mess if said request isn't fulfilled, is mind blowing. The fact that the choosing beggar threatens they'll "avoid them from now on" is the true icing on the cake. Absolutely ridiculous.
This employee has a soft spot in their heart for spiders. When it got tense in the office with another co-worker over their refusal to kill the spider, they stood their ground, and successfully defended the life of the creepy crawler. Sounds like the co-worker is about ready to quit after this.
