I Used To Work There

Bachelor Party at Work, Russian Train Ride, Private Jet to Switzerland

Episode 5 of I Used To Work There is complete chaos from start to finish. This week’s Day Shift brings the lighter workplace insanity, including a bachelor party thrown inside an office building, a haircut on company time, and the moment rain literally started pouring into Kelly’s office mid-interview. Then Night Shift takes things into much wilder territory with a Russian train ride involving KGB security and army jeeps, an exploding tablet during a corporate meeting, a heartfelt Paul McCartney security story, and a business trip that somehow escalates into VIP parties, private jets, and a flight to Switzerland that sounds straight out of The Wolf of Wall Street. From hilarious office disasters to surreal international moments that genuinely sound made up, Episode 5 might be the wildest collection of work stories yet. Got a story of your own?
