Share the funniest, weirdest, or most surprising things you’ve caught coworkers saying. From out-of-context gems to meeting room mysteries, this is where workplace chatter gets recorded. 
You’ve overheard gossip at work and pretended not to listen.
I’ve never heard anything weird, but I have heard my boss talking about me to my coworkers, talk about pain. 
Recently, I was asked to come in an extra day to really focus on a project that needed to get done. I knew the boss was coming, but wasn’t sure when.
Then, right outside my open office door, I hear this gem:
“Promote Sally? She’s… fine. Just does her work. Not really the type we need to fire, but not really the type we need to promote.”
Maybe I am just fine. But to have that conversation basically in my earshot? Isane.
I would much prefer overhearing something fun than this, did you ever confront them or just kept it to yourself?
