ANY ONE HAVE STUPID OR GOOFY COWORKERS?

“I work in a really laid back office. I've been sick with a cold all week. Well this morning it caught up with me. I'm beat. So I called to let a gal in my tiny office of 4 people (one is at a conference) know that I was going to be late because I needed some more rest. So 45 minutes later the other gal from my office calls me to tell me it's ok if I stay at home and get more rest and come in whenever. Ok.......Duh! Thanks for waking me up now you moron! And she knows my condo is for sale and I have to answer the phone in case someone is coming by to show it.”

“Peter: "Hey Lawrence you want to come over"
Lawrence: Hell no! (whispers)don't want ya fvckin up my life"”

“We're gonna need you to just move on down to the basement. yeaaaahhhhh, so if you could just go ahead and do that. That'd be great.”

“It's okay LNSTABBER, it's a Texas thing!”

“I use to work with a guy that had an invisable friend named Johnny. He would argue with Johnny often. To or from work, or even at lunch time, we would see the guy pulled over on the side of the highway or street walking his invisable dog. Noticed that he would even open the passenger door for the friend.”

“I work with a guy who laughs at everything so damn loud you can hear him on the other side of the building. It's like a bad episode of Batman. He will respond to anything you say with one of his annoying laughs. It's horrible.”

“Sometimes I wish I had a stupid or goofy coworker, but I work by myself. So I guess I could be the goofy worker. I just don't know it because there is no one around to tell me.”

“One of my co-workers (another electrician) is stuck in 1981 or so. His hair is parted down the middle and feathered, he wears too tight blue jeans and western style button dwon shirts with a jean jacket, but the crowning adornment is his belt and buckle. The belt is embossed leather that says " electrician" and has little lightening bolts and the buckle is a big image of Thomas Edisons face...too funny.”

“Oh yeah, Birch? I work with a guy who has the big leather belt and HIS buckle says "Machinist!"”

“Too funny treebait!”

“I know my collegues would agree they have one goofy co-worker.”

“So, my big belt buck is goofy?”

“ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!
I hate when my coworker in the cube next to me uses his damn speakerphone instead of just picking up the damn handset!”

“Belch and fart loudly. Put on some annoying music and turn your speakers up.”

“Talk to yourself, out loud”

“My co-workers don't seem to mind that too much...”

“leave your cell phone in your cube, call yourself from another phone, let it ring using the most assinine tune possible while you take a long break”

“Belch and fart loudly.
Talk to yourself, out loud

LOL, great sugestions , but I do that already. ;-)”

“Being self employed I can honestly say everyone I work with is crazy...are not!...are too!...Shut up you guys!...

See what I mean?”

“Everyone I work with are crazy too :) when they get on my nerves I just close my wonderfull office door!”

“this has been an annoying-coworker-day for the books! good thing i never see them in person, else i might strangle them.”

“Ya know what they say, if you don't have anoying co workers, chances are, it's YOU!”

“Still haven't figured out how to get the monkeys to do your dirty work for you yet, lyra?”

“The IT manager here is one of those pitiful cases that has no girlfriend. Any time anyone is having a conversation about their kids, he ALWAYS chimes in about how that "just like" when his friggin DOG does blah blah blah. Without fail the dude equates his pet to your kid, and actually means it.”

“haha, i need to send the monkeys out to bust some heads together! i try not to, but i get soooo mad when people i supervise don't respond to calls or emails for like a week. what kind of idiot does that?? i was actually laying awake last night steaming over it! someone needs to get a life, and i think it's me, hahaha.”

“just to clarify, the "idiots" are the co-workers...not me! most of them are like 500 years older than me and probably think they can do whatever the heck they want. well i have news for them!!!
;-)”

“we just hired a new person and after two days, she's already noticed that the guy who happens to be her direct supervisor is vastly inept and really has no clue what is going on with the things he is responsible for (no, i'm not her supervisor). We were actually discussing how long it would take her to come to that conclusion - she beat all our estimates.”

“The bane of my existence is GONE!!!! This totally whacked out guy is gone. It turns out I (and alot of others) was right about him. It turns out that he was staying with his best friend who got him the job and started having an affair with the best friend's wife. He lied to all of us at work, she worked their too, and said she was his sister. It all came out last week and she left and moved to NC, and he followed her. Turns out she has a history of screwing people close to her husband or boyfriend.

Oh yeah, I forgot, he said he was leaving because his dad was sick and tried to say he possibly could be back in 12 weeks. The boss said we'd see how it goes and then the dumb a$$ called in sick the last night, so he won't be back!!! The company got screwed since they pay you ahead of when you leave. Boss man was ticked!

GOOD RIDDANCE!!! YIPPEE I AM FREE OF THE FREAK!!!!

“I am hoping that when we move offices my cube will be far, far away from the loud British woman near me.

I know every frickin' detail about her and her adult daughters' personal lives. Plus, when she's not on the phone talking to one of her daughters, she's on the phone to a co-worker complaining about how their boss is wrong about something or another. Ugh. Some days I just have to put the headphones on.”

“i don't have any stupid or goofy coworkers...does that mean i'm the stupid goofy one?”

“Yep, you probably are!

I know I am on our floor.”

“YES!! Please go around and apologize to each and every co worker today.

Have you seen the Cheese Nips Chips commercial? The one where the office dork sits on the bag of chips and causes a cheese cloud to explode in the cube? LOL!

"Maaaaarcy..."”

“tango...

any idea specifically WHERE IN NC?...cause we don't need any more FREAKS in my town!!!”

“Well he does sound like a potential future date Carlette ;o)”

“no, the stupid crown goes to the construction worker that just cut the power off in our building turning off all our computers!!”

“Y2 didn't you know? I had the legislature ban dating in NC..it is no more.”

“Wait a minute. So how are you still able to post then, Thrifty?”

“i've got a hamster and wheel generator LOL”

“I've heard the name. She has like 4 kids. Steer clear! Her nick name at work was "Tan in a bottle". Look for a bleached blonde, orange hued, road hard and put wet kinda girl.

lol at the resta ya!

“My worst co-workers where when I was still in the print industry. Man, some of those guys....shudder.”

“I don't have to deal with the Wicked Witch of the West after today.

Yee! Haw!”

“Here is an actual Out of Office memo my friend just received. (names removed)

Besides the date is wrong, .... he should have used spell-check!!!


-----------------------------------------------


I am currently in the office; however, involved in interanal meetings Wednesday, March 16th. If your inquiry is of an urgent nature, please contact ___. For all general inquiries, please send to ___ Thank you.”

“Interanal? Bawhahahaha!”

“1. I am currently out at a job interview and will reply to you if I fail to get the position. Be prepared for my mood.



2. You are receiving this automatic notification because I am out of the office. If I was in, chances are you wouldn't have received anything at all.



3. I will be unable to delete all the unread, worthless emails you send me until I return from holiday on 4 April. Please be patient and your mail will be deleted in the order it was received.



4. Thank you for your email. Your credit card has been charged $5.99 for the first ten words and $1.99 for each additional word in your message.



5. The e-mail server is unable to verify your server connection and is unable to deliver this message. Please restart your computer and try sending again. (The beauty of this is that when you return, you can see how many in-duh-viduals did this over and over).



6. Thank you for your message, which has been added to a queuing system.. You are currently in 352nd place, and can expect to receive a reply in approximately 19 weeks.



7. I've run away to join a different circus.



8. I will be out of the office for the next 2 weeks for medical reasons.. When I return, please refer to me as 'Margaret' instead of 'Steve'.”

“8. I will be out of the office for the next 2 weeks for medical reasons.. When I return, please refer to me as 'Margaret' instead of 'Steve'.

Although the names are different - this happened in our office about 2 years ago - and yes, he sent out a memo beforehand alerting people.”

“How do the co-workers in which he/she now share the same restroom feel about it? Or can he/she use either one?”

“Sarge, my boss has made a fool out of himself with out of office messages just like that. He has misspelled my name as Brain and Briand, put the wrong phone number to reach me at, and has screwed up the date he was out on.”

“No, I work alone.”

“He uses the female bathroom - but I don't know how they feel about it (not something I could ask w/o risking my job). A couple months ago I set up a meeting with him and about 10 other people, plus an outside contractor. She (the contractor) asked him to show her the bathroom. Quite comical!”
