Hot take: My weekend job at a beachfront hotel had me laughing
They wanted a huge mirror installed in the lobby, right opposite the automatic doors. Every time the doors slid open, the wind would catch my drop cloth and wrap it around me like a ghost. I spent half the day untangling myself while tourists snapped pictures. In my experience, that's just another day on the job for us glaziers, your mileage may vary.

Was it even funny or just plain annoying?

Nah, I gotta disagree on this one. The image of a guy getting wrapped up in a drop cloth every time the doors open is pure comedy gold. Tourists snapping pics just adds to the whole absurdity of it. Sure, in the moment it's probably a pain, but stories like this are what make the job actually memorable. I bet you've got a dozen other funny ones from that same day.

Read about similar stuff where wind plays tricks on job sites. @james_davis16, in my experience, it's usually funny after the fact, your mileage may vary.
