Just want to know how many others have pet names for co-workers you don't particularly like?

Used to have This nerdy Nazi looking bastard in my team.

Instead of calling him by his birth name I would just call him glasses.

Ive been out of school for 20 years, since then in and out of jobs.
Most would say don't cause friction at work.
But what can I say? If you don't like the snake in the grass,4 eyes, glasses prick then I'm not going to make him feel comfortable!

My ex-supervisor from 14 years ago... I call her dingbat. However we're close and she's great. We still catch up every now and then. I don't really like to insult people as these days with snow flakes and what have you... that will result in the end of my career.

Calling coworkers names is the first step towards :
a) dismissal.
b) a sexual harassment lawsuit.
c) a harassment/bullying complaint.

It's disrespectful.

Hence I never have, and never will call coworkers anything but their actual name (or a shortened form if they prefer).

Had a few over the years, security we don't usually use real names, most of the time it's your title and rank IE I've nearly always been called M1 (Manager 1) or S1 (Supervisor 1), and there is G1 (Guard and rank)

Had some funny ones too like Tank, Bigfoot, AK (Assyrian King) and Baby (6 foot and 160kgs and I was the smallest guard lol)

You'd be surprised, there is always one after a few drinks.

I used to love watching the bouncers put ***** in their place on a night out.

I remember I was in a club once and the bouncers would always throw people out who were sleeping lol. Once I was sitting on a couch and the bouncer looked at me. I look up at him as if to say "What's your problem?" and he backed off. After that I fell asleep and my mate woke me up when we were leaving :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

We had a few teachers that we made fun of their last name.

One I remember was Mrs Richter. She was fat and I mean hugely fat. We used to call her Richter Scale as we reckoned everytime she walked the earth moved.

We also had a Mr Burkett that we called Mr Jerk It

There was Mrs Woodhouse that we called Mrs Outhouse.

There were a few more and I think some of them were a bit racist too.

Looking back we were arseholes at school when it came to the teachers.
