Transcript
Speaker A:

It's haystack.

Speaker A:

And most people have, have had to.

Speaker B:

Kind of roll their eyes at something a coworker did in the break room.

Speaker A:

But.

Speaker A:

But pulling a gun seems a bit extreme.

Speaker A:

A 46 year old detective was at a police headquarters in South Carolina, Myrtle.

Speaker B:

Beach, South Carolina, Saturday.

Speaker A:

Got into it with a patrolman and he was mad because the patrolman was warming up fish in the microwave, causing a bad odor in the office.

Speaker A:

And I don't know if he had.

Speaker B:

To do detective work to figure out whose fish it was.

Speaker A:

He, this guy was so upset he pointed his gun at the other officer.

Speaker A:

That is not cool.

Speaker A:

No matter how nasty a microwave is, it's not worth a gun being pulled.

Speaker A:

There's no kind of word on what.

Speaker B:

Kind of fish it was either.

Speaker A:

I'd like to know.

Speaker A:

But the guy was, the detective was arrested for pointing a gun at someone, which is a felony in this circumstance.

Speaker A:

He was booked, he was released, he was fired from his job.

Speaker A:

And of note, the other officer will not be charged with a crime for microwaving the fish.

Speaker A:

And I would never clearly ever condone anyone, cop or otherwise, pulling a gun over a freaking fish in the microwave.

Speaker B:

In the break room.

Speaker A:

But I do understand it a little bit.

Speaker A:

I mean sometimes you want to go dirty hairy over your co worker if they do something just as annoying as.

Speaker B:

A microwaving a fish in the break.

Speaker A:

Room like one of the these six things.

Speaker C:

Well, gather round folks.

Speaker C:

It's the time of day when we laugh and smile in a light hearted way.

Speaker C:

Tune in for the giggles and let's kick back.

Speaker C:

Here comes the fun.

Speaker C:

It's the morning six pack.

Speaker D:

These are the top six co worker habits.

Speaker B:

Just as annoying as microwaving fish.

Speaker B:

Number six, leaving their used K cup in the coffee maker.

Speaker D:

Number five, clicking their pen through an entire meeting.

Speaker D:

Number four, stealing copy paper or reporting you for stealing copy paper.

Speaker D:

Number three, actually bringing their kid to work on bring your kid to work day.

Speaker D:

Number two, starting a conversation when they realize it's your shoes in the stall next to them.

Speaker D:

So terrible.

Speaker D:

And the number one most annoying habit by co workers.

Speaker D:

Just as annoying as most microwaving fish.

Speaker A:

In the break room, contacting HR just because you complimented her dress, specifically how her butt looked in it.
