Employee of the Century

[HardOCP News]

You know, I can’t really put my finger on it but there is something I really like about this guy. I probably wouldn’t buy a Mac from him, but he seems really cool. Thanks to Jessie Lawrence for the picture!

I got $5 that says he'd never get a job at an Apple store, no matter how qualified.

 

[Monkey34]

Must be a relative of the twins in Austin Powers.

Wonder what's below the two warning signs. Something vulgar, or something X-rated?

Probably just the Fry's return policy.

[Mr. Bluntman]

Probably Prop 65 chemical/cancer warning notices if that picture is from a California Fry's.

You just can't beat news like this.

 

[[Retaliation]]

String bets are illegal and will be treated as just a call.

[dochmbi]

Note that the "I call, and raise..." cliche is a string bet.

Only in most poker rooms. Last time I checked, this wasn't poker.

 

[godfetish]

I go to classes with a guy named Hung Quoc...

 

[azuldenial]

What store is this from, I want to have my picture taken with him?

 

[techie254]

phuc mac
lmao

 

[Azhar]

I showed this to my boss and we were making fun of his name.

Sick Phuc

Little Phuc

"Hey is he coming to work today?"
"No, Phuc off"

 

[wiseoracle]

It's a vietnamese name, and it's pronounced like "Fook" FYI.

RIP thread.

 

[jjager85]

you know that all the employees staged it so he would get his picture there.

 

[Raiden911]

own3d. Lawl....fry's

Now that's just taking all the fun out of this...

When I worked at Comp USSR back in the mid-late 1990's we had a customer come into the store named Phuc Ho. Had I not seen his driver's license I wouldn't have believed it. It was funny as hell. The head cashier needed to page him to the front of the store (I believe they processed a credit app for the guy) and she wasn't going to get on the intercom and say "Paging Phuc Ho."

Would this really have been any less funny if his name was Fook Mac??

 

[Igg]

As a Vietnamese [H]ardOCP reader I'm actually offended by this. Making fun of Macs is one thing, but this is down right wrong.

 

[Dan_D]

The guy I met named "Phuc Ho" told us it was pronounced "Fuck Ho."

 

[forshock]

Igg: The business i work for is Vietnamese owned, they thought it was hilarious.

I wish my name meant F*** mac in some other language.

We make fun of the French and the EU all the time. Americans too. Lighten up.

Fook, Fuck ... tomato tomahto

It's still awesome.

Seriously, this is what makes it even funnier.

At the skating rink near where i grew up, the owners wife's name was "Ho Eng". Also there was a "Hung Dong Meat Market" in the area. It was one of those things that no matter how often you saw it, you still giggled like a little girl.

When I worked at a hospital, one of my co-workers told me about the time she had to transport a Mr. Hofucker down to X-Ray or something. No joke. That was the guy's last name. She had to go up to him and ask him, "Are you Mr. Hofucker?" while checking his armband to verify his identity.

 

[GJSNeptune]

^And yes, it's pronounced how you want it to be pronounced.

lihten up Mr. Noramus

 

[zaxour]

Actually, the name is pronounced more like "phoop", not phook or anything like that. Being immersed in viet culture, I don't really find this that funny. At least his name isn't like Lông Đông.
