You think your job is weird? Think it’s just you and your mildly unhinged coworkers up to no good on the clock? Think again.<\/p>\n
The RockShow With Chrissy And Wes asked Lubbock: What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever seen at work? And honestly, it might be time for someone to call OSHA. Here are their wildest answers.<\/p>\n

You guys deserve WAY more money. One guy told us that a lady once brought a goat into his store. Another man said a group of furries tried to rob his store. And a grown woman apparently cried when she was asked to pick up her dog’s poo in another store, and when she did, she did it BARE-HANDED. Lord, have mercy.<\/p>\n Photo by Nathan Dumlao<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a>Forklift Fun<\/p>\n A warehouse employee reported that a forklift driver once hit a waterline, ruining millions of dollars’ worth of products. A machinist told us they saw their coworkers openly doing blow in the break room on their first day. And, a bartender watched one of their married regulars make out with a 6’2 drag queen like it was just another Tuesday.<\/p>\n Photo by Pickawood<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a>The Limo Lovers<\/p>\n Oh, and let’s not forget…a limo driver revealed he once let a curious couple sit in his stretch limo on New Year’s Eve…except, they didn’t just sit. They tipped him $100 after completing SOMETHING from their bucket list. You can use your imagination on that one.<\/p>\n Photo by Richard R<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a><\/p>\n The takeaway? Your workplace isn’t work. Work is just weird, and Lubbock simply refuses to pretend otherwise.<\/p>\n Clock in. Stay alert. And, maybe avoid the family restroom unless you’ve just gotta go…AND, as always, keep scrolling for more Lubbock fun in the galleries below…<\/p>\n What Went Wrong on Your Date?
