Do you have those people at work that are just oddballs.
What are their nick names / characteristics?
We have loads at work, here are a few:
Barry The Can - Chippy at work, stinks of booze everyday, usually followed by poor work.
Toddy Long Legs - Lad called Todd who has unaturally long legs, supposedly his mum has featured in a porn mag, unconfirmed.
Ray Bartnick - Real name Chris, has removable teeth, big eyes and a massive rock hard beer gut.
1 Amp - No longer works there but was one of the least intelligent people i've ever met, now in jail for drug offences. The 1 Amp was a reference to his TIG welder.
Ratboy - Very slight build, hair like Rod Stewart, face of, well..... a rat.
Steve Strange - Folds metal on a big press, everytime he does something wrong and you show him he looks at it rubbing his chin saying "Hmmm. Strange, Strange" It's said that very few know his real surname.
Well, there's a few, lets hear yours!

Chap at my work wears shoes about 5 sizes too big and stuff the back of them with socks. They hang out about 4 inches from the back of his heel and his used socks are always flopping out. He was suspended from work and while off was in the local paper for getting drunk on his own and setting fire to a phone box, Police picked him up shortly after as the phone box was outside his house. Nice guy.

We've got loads of nick names for customers thinking about it, mostly three letter abbreviations of something so we can talk about them without the realizing.

Loads. Due to the way we were recruited, was a graduate programme, I get the impression some of them think they are better than they are. Then there are the people that are desperate to make a name for themselves as they probably see this as their last chance.
Exhibit A - Very malicious and will do what ever it takes to get on, and doesn't care who gets in his way. Management hate him.
Exhibit B - Not a particularly bad person, but rubbish at his job and does not do what he says he will do. This results in more work for the rest of us.
Exhibit C - Bumbling idiot, thinks he is management material but he can't even use his PC correclty. It breaks every day without fail. I think he would like to be A but he is actually a combination of A & B!
Exhibit D - Total chav, stripey jumper, hair gelled forward and constantly singing Plan B. I genuinely think he thinks he is Plan B!
Exhibit E - Grotesque. I am not exagerating this. The guy is huge. His attendance is terrible and regularly goes home with headaches and constantly falls asleep in meetings.
Exhibit F - Thinks she is hotter than she really is, only goes out with guys with flash cars and claims guys flock round her when she is out drinking.
Thats about it really, the rest don't really warrant a mention as they are too boring.
As for nicknames - I don't have any for the above but I have names for several people on my team.

No joke, I think something must have happened to him earlier in life to have to partake in such a strange habit, maybe he shit himself and wont risk it again?
