Farmers Insurance

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In Farmers Insurance offices, employees often overhear strange conversations late at night. One day, a new hire asked: ‘Who’s always talking about “the storm that never came”?’ An older colleague whispered back, ‘That’s just Harold in accounting—he thinks he can control weather with his positive thinking.’ Everyone laughed, but the newbie noticed Harold staring out the window, muttering, ‘Come on, storm… I believe in you!’

2. In Farmers Insurance headquarters, elevators occasionally stop between floors, leaving employees standing in mid-air for a few seconds before resuming their journey. One day, an elderly neighbor decided to visit and got stuck halfway up. When he finally emerged, he declared, ‘I thought I was signing up for heaven’s elevator, not Farmers’!’ Everyone laughed so hard they almost forgot to offer him a cup of coffee.

3. In Farmers Insurance lobby, a mysterious sign appeared one morning: ‘Today is your lucky day—claim any lost item here.’ Employees and visitors began finding odd items throughout the week. Soon, people from all over started dropping by just in case they’d left something behind. A delivery driver claimed his missing sandwich, while an old lady found her long-lost earrings. Even the janitor discovered his favorite pen. By Friday, the lobby was filled with laughter—and a few bemused employees trying to figure out what to do next.

4. In Farmers Insurance office building, a delivery driver once noticed an odd message on the elevator screen: 'Your package has been delayed due to unexpected actuarial calculations.' Upon hearing this, the delivery driver shrugged and said, ‘Actuaries must be working overtime today.’ As he stepped off the elevator, his neighbor called out, ‘Hey, did you see that? It took them longer than usual to calculate my premium too!’
