Guy Shares What His Co-Worker James Does At Work And His Lack Of Common Sense Is Hilarious
Everyone with an office job knows that while the mundane setting of the business grows monotonous, it is often brightened up by cheeky casualness that is shared between the coworkers trying to escape the routine. And while most personalities are rather tame, every once in a while someone colorful emerges. In Kaleb Harmon’s case, it was an intern named James.

Kaleb Harmon shared some tidbits about an intern at his work that are quite entertaining

Back in July, Harmon took to Twitter to share some hilarious situations that he attributed to an intern. From catching 15 cheese puffs in a row with his mouth to wearing an American flag tank top to work, James seems to be full of surprises that are perfect to share between your friends (and on the internet). And while some speculate that James might be Harmon’s fictional creation, whether he’s real or not, the intern is sure enternaiting!

Share on FacebookI had a coworker make coffee this way. It was delicious. Super rich and creamy.
Load More Replies...Every workplace has its James, sadly. Though this James seems the kind who'd try to put a fire out with gasoline.
While singing We Didn't Start the Fire... with dirty lyrics...
Load More Replies...Everyone has "James" stories from their office. It's funny until you realize they're talking about you.
I am lactose intolerant and I can eat some cheese puffs without any problems. If I eat too much of them it just makes me fart more. I don't understand why I constantly see in TV shows, movies and in various online discussions Americans who think that if you are a lactose intolerant you can't use any dairy products, like 'I can't eat pizza because I am lactose intolerant'. Thay probably think that lactose intolerance and milk allergy are a same thing...
Some of them have fake cheese. I don’t eat cheese but I can still find cheese puffs sometimes.
Load More Replies...James may be an irritating, arrogant plonker. But people who ridicule others on the WORLD WIDE web are far worse. I think it's called... Let me think... Oh yeah. Cyber bullying. Have a giggle about others in private if you will. Publishing it online is really s****y.
I love when they're unaware, it makes my world a better place.
Load More Replies...Again, I wonder if this story is real. There is no proof James exists other than the word of someone who wants to get his article on Boredpanda.
We had an intern at my museum who invited himself to a meeting, then proceeded to give his opinion on archaeology (not his own opinion, mind you, but quoting his professor) and also telling my boss that he will "inspect" the exhibition for him. It was an unpaid internship, but still...
D'aww, James is a Kevin! (To know what I'm talking about, go to r/storiesaboutkevin .)
I am a Kevin-magnet. 2 out of the 3 failed relationships over 35 years have been with Kevin's. Even my new Therapist is called Kevin
Load More Replies...Mostly likely James is an unpaid intern, so it's basically free entertainment for the entire office.
I am no longer surprised at the inherent stupidity of humans. A flatmate of mine was dating an absolutely stupid guy. He was hungry, and asked "how to heat up a can of soup". "just microwave it for 2 mins", I suggested. "how?" he asks. "put it in the microwave, press 2:00 and 'start'", I say. He put the entire can, still unopened, in the microwave, and had no idea why it was a bad idea.
ComedyCentral, Neflix, HBO... whichever makes a show about him it will be a winner :D PS: "waddup n-words" killed me xD
If this is a paid internship, I think James is the genius of the group.
The cover of People this week. Kaleg looks like he could be a sibling. Robert Irwin is a dead ringer for his dad. 20181229_1...9ce89b.jpg
Load More Replies...Okay, but how does one FORGET they're lactose intolerant??? That's like me eating meat because I forgot I'm vegan. Okay in my head that made more sense but I would use something I'm allergic to but I'm not allergic to anything EDIT: I'll be like those facebook moms "I'm AlLeRgIc To MoNdAyS hAhAhA"
Exactly. The person who made all of this up didn’t think that one through.
Load More Replies...So, now Bored Panda is about making fun of people who apparently mean no harm?
At my mom's work they have a freelancer named Brandon (she works for Bedrosians). It is known that he smokes weed and doesn't do s**t around the office. Also, he refuses to take the drug test and they can't force him since he's a freelancer. But he's quitting soon , YAY
but they can fire his a*s. that's the only reason you hire freelancers/contractors for office work.
Load More Replies...Every post is 9:21pm on July 19, 2018. How is it possible to post all of that at the same time? Sounds made up.
It isn't. The time/date codes are the giveaway. It's completely made up.
Load More Replies...If he's an intern, they allow him to stay there because its free labor.
To be fair, I am a Mom, and have made the mistake of asking someone when they were due too, and NOPE, not pregnant...gulp. It's an awkward back peddle! Just don't go there...
We had a co-worker we would constantly have to remind him to turn off his mic if he wasn't talking during the conference call. He was a loud typer and heavy breather. It sounded like he was hammering away on his keyboard and I was told often by female co-workers that his breathing creeped them out.
This may actually be 'good' for the company, especially since he's an intern. You can keep him around for comic relief without incurring cost. Plus, it can actually be a good method of bonding to keep around someone that everyone else can laugh at. It's like a bad joke that everyone can groan at and therefore bond over. Commiserating actually works! I used to know a doctor who owned a practice, and he introduced his leading doctors in on his habit of inviting in the worst applicant for an interview, in order to break up the strenuous monotony of choosing a candidate. Imagine the kind of person who applies 5+ pay grades above their competency level, then getting a laugh out of watching this high school dropout give their best explanation of why they would make a qualified nursing assistant with their pizza delivery experience.
