Once, during an internal audit of a marketing agency, the auditor was examining the travel expenses. An employee had claimed for a 'flight to Mars' as part of his business travel. When questioned, he said it was a creative way to show how out - of - this - world his ideas were. This not only made the auditor chuckle but also made the company realize they needed to be more clear about what was acceptable in expense claims.
I heard of an internal audit where the auditor was looking into the office supplies. They found a stash of hundreds of pens in one employee's desk drawer. When asked why, the employee said they were 'collecting' them in case there was a pen shortage in the future. It was really funny as it was clearly an over - hoarding situation.
There was an internal audit in a manufacturing company. The auditor was checking the safety equipment records. One of the reports showed that a 'unicorn - proof helmet' was part of the required safety gear. Turns out it was a prank entry by an employee who was bored with filling out the forms. Everyone had a good laugh about it, but it also showed the lack of seriousness in some parts of the process.
There was an internal audit in a large corporation. The auditors were auditing the travel expenses. One executive had a series of flights that seemed very strange. It turned out he had been trying to use up all his frequent - flyer miles in the most convoluted way possible, booking multiple short - haul flights instead of one direct long - haul flight. His reasoning was that he didn't want to waste the miles and it made for a very comical audit finding.
Once, during an internal audit of a small company, the auditor found that the expense reports had some really strange items. One employee had claimed for a 'unicorn horn' as a 'creative inspiration tool'. It turned out to be a novelty item from a joke shop. Everyone had a good laugh about it.
Well, there was this internal audit in a small company. The auditor was going through the expense reports. He noticed that one employee had claimed for 'dragon - slaying equipment'. When asked, the employee said it was a joke entry as he thought internal audits were just a formality and no one would actually read it carefully.
A woman once bought a lottery ticket as a joke. She put it in her purse and forgot about it. Weeks later, she was cleaning out her purse and found the ticket. She checked the numbers casually and realized she had won a decent sum. She was so shocked that she started jumping up and down in the middle of her living room.
There was a person who was so worried about getting the virus that they wore two hazmat suits while walking their dog. The dog was just a small poodle and it looked hilarious trying to walk with this huge, clumsy figure next to it.
There's a story where a geocacher was searching for a cache near a beach. He saw a seagull standing on what he thought was the cache. He tried to shoo the seagull away gently, but the seagull was very protective. Eventually, the seagull flew away and he found the cache. It was really funny how the seagull thought it was its own little treasure.
A friend told me about a cruise where they had a 'guess the weight of the fish' competition. One guy guessed a ridiculously high number, like 500 pounds for a small fish. When they actually weighed it and it was only 5 pounds, everyone couldn't stop laughing at his over - the - top guess.
I heard of an ancestor who thought he could fly. He climbed up on the roof of his barn, flapped his arms made from chicken feathers, and jumped. Of course, he didn't fly but ended up in a haystack unharmed, and it became a hilarious family legend.
Well, I heard about a guy who tried to pay for a small coffee with his credit card at a local café. But his card got declined. He was so sure he had enough money. Turns out he had activated a new security feature on his card by mistake which blocked small purchases. It was really funny when he realized his error.
I heard of a man who was constantly on social media promoting healthy eating and fitness. He would post pictures of himself with all kinds of healthy food and talk about his intense workout routines. But in reality, he spent most of his days sitting on the couch eating junk food. His online image was completely false, which was really funny in a way.
