Dumbest thing you ever saw a coworker do at work

I watched my boss crash a crop spraying plane, and walk away

When they're crop spraying in a plane, they're only about 10 feet off the ground, so there's not much room for error.
He was coming over a little knoll, and lost his air, so the plane hit the ground. It was one of those old biplanes, so the landing gear didn't retract. When he hit, he pulled the emergency dump valve for the 200g water/spray tank, so the plane shot up. He wasn't out of the woods yet.
There was a semi with a reefer trailer coming down the highway, which he managed to barely hit, and ripped off what remained of the landing gear. When he hit the semi, the right wing dipped, hit the fucking power line on the other side of the highway, and banked right, hard into a tree row.

I'm watching this all take place, and I figured he was dead. I drove out to the tree grove, and there was the plane stuck in the trees about 20 feet off the ground. He had already gotten out of the cockpit, shut off the fuel, and shimmied down the tree waiting.

He refused to go to the hospital, until he passed out on his couch 4 hours later from a ruptured spleen.


Definitely not as entertaining, but I watched a different boss flip a lawnmower over backwards.

That's straight COMEDY LOL
 
built a womens shelter in BC and a local news crew came one day, lots of extra people onsite with that crew and city officials ect. They were getting footage of workers doing their thing for the segment. They were filming this one guy going up a ladder and somehow he dropped a bag of meth and it was caught on camera somehow making it past editing and made it to live tv somehow he didn't get fired until a few years later for falling asleep while trying to install fascia, again on top of a ladder.

Not exactly dumb but one time I found a really old pair of dentures so I would sneak up behind guys and replace their measuring tape with the dentures and watch them lose their mind when grabbing for their tape
 
There was this one guy I worked with (me) who worked with his best friend. We would get high as hell and go work at chik-fil-a making the food in the back. Well one day I go in and I'm under the impression that the owner isn't there. So I start screaming out "(managers full name) is a crackhead". Just saying this over and over again. After about 10 minutes of me doing this my friend comes over and says "You know he was right there behind you the whole time right?". I'm in shock at this point. I had no idea he was there and he heard everything.

A week or so later I see my schedule has been changed to me only coming in one day each week. On top of that my friend calls me up after work one day and tells me that manager called him into his office and told him his whole life story. Apparently he literally used to be a crack head, got sober, went to school, and invested in chik-fil-a (he owns 3 of them in our area now). I had no idea and felt like such a POS after that. He must of thought that I heard about his history on the streets somehow and was just yelling it out for the world to hear.
 
I worked for the GM and my desk was in front of his office. The desk next to me was our head of IT. The GM used to call me into his office if he needed help with something, or to give me something his daughter baked......or to show me funny stuff online. Well, there was a warehouse worker who would walk through our area daily. One of these days, the GM called me into his office and said the warehouse worker is a youtube rapper, want to see? I said hell yeah. So he brought up the guys youtube rap videos.

Now, months later we're all told that our entire building is being laid off in two months. If we stay the last two months we'll get a big severance package based on how long we've been there. About 6 weeks into that final two months, one of the warehouse girls came in and told the GM that youtube rapper stole her headphones. So after she leaves, the GM comes out, grabs me and we huddle around the head of IT next to me. We're looking through the video and sure enough, we can see her put her headphones down (they had to be maybe $20 just basic wired ear buds). Youtube rapper comes along and takes the headphones. Now he had been there many years and they fired him for it, thus missing out on his big severance package over some cheap used headphones. <JagsKiddingMe>

Lemme guess...this was in chilliwack
 
Saw a lot of dumb shit while in the Marine Corps. One time I was out for an exercise (CAX) at a training area down the road from 29 Palms, CA. I'm a Sgt. walking up the hill when I see a gaggle of younger marines putting together a field antenna (OE-254 if you want to google what one looks like). To imagine this antenna: You stake a base into the ground, then add a series of rods to add length/height. As your setting it up, these rods are laying on the ground as you build the antenna. The combined rods are now the pole of your antenna. You then hoist this up in the air with a series of guidelines (so that your antenna is now pointed up in the sky as antennas should be) and you secure it in position.

Well these marines are assembling it underneath some power lines. Noticing this, I stop and chew some ass. Point out how stupid it is to throw it up there and point out that if it touches the power line, anyone touching it is gonna die. Finishing my tirade I yell at the dipshits to pick it up and move to another spot. Then off I go.

Well I guess those guys figured, "Fuck that guy," and just decided to try and throw it up. You can guessed what happened. I'm alerted to this when I hear all sorts of "OH SHIT!", and "Get a corpsman over here!" It was then that I learned a unique fact about high voltage injuries. If a human gets electrocuted by a significant wattage while grounded, that electricity WILL exit the body. Usually at one random spot. As the kid was getting carried away (he would live), he had a huge and growing red stain on the crotch area of his cammies. It was our corpsman who happened to get a look at him, and to quote him, that particular jolt of electricity decided to exit that marines body by blowing off "both his balls and about half the shaft."

Seriously guys, don't fuck about under power lines.
