Share some business office horror stories.
There was this time when a major project was due, and the office's computer system crashed. All the work that was not saved was lost. People were panicking as they had to redo so much work in a very short time. It was a nightmare especially for those who had put in countless hours already. To make matters worse, the IT department took forever to get the system back up and running.
In my office, there was a colleague who was always stealing other people's ideas and presenting them as his own. One day, a very creative team member came up with a brilliant marketing plan. This sneaky colleague overheard it and presented it to the higher - ups before the original creator could. When the truth came out, there was a huge drama. Everyone felt betrayed and it created a really toxic atmosphere in the office.

It affected the overall mood in the office as everyone was on edge.

In an office, there was a rumor of a 'ghost' in the supply closet. One day, a new employee heard the rumors and decided to check it out. When he opened the door, a whole bunch of old papers and files fell on him. It turned out that the closet was over - stuffed and the door was not properly closed. So every time someone walked by and made a little vibration, things would shift and it sounded like there was something spooky going on inside.

There was a situation where an office hookup led to a major conflict during a project. The two people involved had an argument that spilled over into the whole team. They couldn't work together effectively, and it caused delays. It was really bad because the rest of the team had to pick up the slack while they sorted out their personal issues. Plus, it made the office a very tense place to be. Everyone was walking on eggshells around them.

Can you share some funny office horror stories?
Sure. One time, there was a co - worker who was terrified of mice. One day, a little mouse scurried across the office floor. He jumped on his chair and started screaming like crazy. His face was so pale, and he refused to come down until someone caught the mouse and showed it was gone. It was hilarious to see him so frightened in the office.
