  DALI SAYS: Nine Types of Surreal Work Stories

Many of the best work stories fall into one of the following nine groups.

  • 1. What is the most bizarre task you were ever assigned?
  • 2. What is the most outlandish reason you lost a job or were reprimanded?
  • 3. What is the weirdest or most shocking thing your boss has done?
  • 4. What is the worst treatment you have ever received from a business partner or co-worker?
  • 5. Who is the worst employee you've ever had to supervise?
  • 6. Who is the most bizarre customer or client you have ever had?
  • 7. What is your most ludicrous, embarrassing, job-related mistake?
  • 8. Have you ever experienced violence or the threat of violence on the job?
  • 9. What is your greatest triumph over adversity on the job? But we'd love to hear your story even if it doesn't fit neatly within these categories.
