About the show
Everyone has a work story.
The hilarious disasters. The unbelievable moments. The jobs that changed us. The coworkers we never forgot. The terrifying situations, strange encounters, and paranormal experiences that still make no sense years later.
I Used To Work There is a storytelling podcast where real people share the unforgettable things that happened on the job. From workplace chaos and dark humor to heartbreak, mystery, and the completely unexplained, these are the stories that stay with you long after you clock out.
Some are funny. Some are unsettling. Some are deeply human.
Some should never have happened at all.
