The worst thing for me was right after Hurricane Ike hit. I had no water and no electricity, but my boss still told me to come in to help out in the office. I thought he meant that he needed me to work on reports, but no... he wanted me to come in and collect laundry for all of the people in the building and drop it off a cleaners. oliviaoblivia on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437671 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 13:15:16 +0000 oliviaoblivia 437671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Pen: Yes indeed!

I dont know if I'd have it in me to go near another guys filth. My work is a pretty boring desk job. Craziest thing I guess would be getting to work on Monday morning and being asked to go to Munich, that night. Bought my flights, went home to pack, and went to the airport for 2 week trip.

As a nanny my boss once made me call her work pretending to be her (she even gave me her social) to figure something out- I don't remember what but it was super weird.

Since I have been back in the US I haven't had to do anything too crazy, but when I lived in Ecuador I worked in a small village that was only accessible by foot. You had to go up and over 2 mountains, and it took about 3 hours one way. I was a total mess whenever I got there! I would work for 3-4 hours and then a family would give me lunch, and then I'd have to go back down again. I often left before sunrise and arrived home after sunset. .twist. on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437567 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 12:27:00 +0000 .twist. 437567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @oliviaoblivia: lol..... what the... anonysquire on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437561 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 12:22:28 +0000 anonysquire 437561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @oliviaoblivia: Bahahahahhahhah! oliviaoblivia on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437558 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 12:20:31 +0000 oliviaoblivia 437558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I once had to design a hidden room for a client that didn't like his five year old. The whole idea was that he would hide from the kid so that the kid didn't bother him. It was really awkward. mediagirl on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437554 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 12:18:36 +0000 mediagirl 437554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ OMG! We went through a house once that looked like the before picture you painted. It was ridiculous. We couldn't believe people would leave it like that. It made us wonder what else they let go to pot if they let the simple things build up!! I don't think I've ever had to do anything crazy.... anonysquire on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437550 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 12:17:25 +0000 anonysquire 437550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Gross!!! I don't really have any crazy stories but I often have to take care of dead bodies. I also have been projectile pooped on :( .twist. on "What's the craziest thing you've had to do for work?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-craziest-thing-youve-had-to-do-for-work#post-437545 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 12:15:37 +0000 .twist. 437545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ WOW. You are braver than I. I don't know if I could clean someone else's house, hopefully they decide to buy it so it's all worth it! :) I work in the oil & gas industry, my old boss was a bit of an odd one, I really like him but he's so strange. One day he made me go with him to pick out furniture for his sons house. LOL.

Wednesday was an all time low for on the job tasks for me. We have a client who is difficult. He is recently divorced and trying to sell his family home. At first he wasn't living there, but now he has moved back in with a couple guy friends. He has declined several showings, which is frustrating. Wednesday he declined a showing and the agent called us because her clients really wanted to see it. It was #1 on their list. After playing phone tag with our client we got him on the phone. He agreed to allow the showing, but warned us that the house was messy. Messy homes don't show well. So with 20 minutes until the showing I went over there and cleaned the house! It was terrible! There were dirty dishes everywhere, trash on the counters, dirty clothes on the floors. There was a love note in the kitchen that was obviously from the previous night's conquest. I also had to hide several condom boxes. In the master bedroom the bed was covered in used Kleenex! The people are really interested in buying it, so it paid off. But I'll never do that for a client again. Do you have any crazy stories?
