My most annoying co-worker is coming over today for a massage. The same dude I used to freak out about taking off his shirt and showing his butt crack when he bent over. lol, I guess if you see the parts enough they're all just parts.

Mapes, grab that dudes toes and play this lil piggy with them. I bet he'll be so freaked out he'll never walk around barefoot again!

I wish all I had to deal with was bare feet! I have an idiot that pick arguments every day on rediculous subjects such as the benefits of a monarchy, how 9/11 was an US government conspiracy, etc. I have actually had to go tell him to shut up - actually I told him to conspire to get some work done. Give me the bare feet!

Would like my control freak, evil boss who is 50 something years old and dates a 25 y/o weird Romanian guy with long hair, who insists on telling me about her "lover" and their sex life?
Did I mention she is a #&%!$ and we call her the Wicked Witch of the West. When she comes into the office, late as usual, my other coworker whispers to me "something wicked this way comes."
I'll take the feet and the shots at lunch!

Typical day at work: A true story.
Me: walks into work limping
Boss, stares at me.:Why you limping?"
Me: Oh no reason.
Boss: There has to be a reason.
Me: Well, I was doing laundry. I think I broke my toe.
Boss stares at me: You think broke your toe doing laundry? HOW?
Me, shrugs: I was folding the laudry and I tripped over the dog and fell over the couch. (Boss is stareing even more) But its ok, really.
boss: Did you go to the docter?
Me: No, they wouldnt of been able to do anything. I have it tapes with duct tape.
Boss: (stares even more) You fascinate me....you really fascinate me....(walks off shaking her head in bewilderment)

Oh my gosh. My coworker is making me cranky! She keeps giving the parrots (Yes we have parrots in our office) junk food. They are my mom's birds. I told her the other week to stop giving them junk. Explained to her it was fine if she made the choice to eat it, but it was unfair to give it to the birds. Just caught her giving them glazed donuts! WTF!? I told her to stop and she gives me the "I'm just giving them a little bit." and continued to give it to them. I had to tell her again and added "That's not ok." I bet they each got a cheeto from her flippin lunch too! Grrr! This gal is really nice, but super overweight and always eating junk. She doesn't need to spread her bad habits to innocent animals! She gives them sh1t like bacon, french fries, chips, salted peanuts, chocolate! It's insane!

Ok, I'm done venting now. Thanks to whomever bothered to read this.

chocolate is very bad for them :( I will admit to letting my birds have a cheeto now and then but usually cause they steal it from me.

I know it. (She knows it) That's why I don't understand why "It's just a little." or "They like it." is an excuse to literally poison them. Maybe cause that's how she treats herself...

Once had a truck that was too tall for the loading dock break off the sprinkler head, setting off the fire alarms, and caused the building to be evacuated for over an hour.

Had a similar occurance in a building I worked in once, but the reason was even stupider.

The building had been added onto, with the addition having two floors. The second floor was left unfinished. About a year after I got there, they decided to finish the second floor. The only access to the second floor was through a door on the outside. Just on the other side of this door was where a hole had been left in the slab to allow the future stairwell to pass through. This was covered with lightly framed plywood.

They were moving drywall into the second floor through this door, and piling it on the plywood.

Drywall is heavy. The plywood collapsed, taking a guy (the same guy stacking too much drywall on the plywood floor) with it, and knocked a sprinkler head off, which triggered the alarm.

We evacuated the building. The guy lived but was badly injured. Fortunately, the guy who had the office that all that crap fell down into wasn't in it at the time.

pixie - Maybe she thinks you're the annoying co-worker because your mom's bird is at her workplace and she's either trying to kill it or annoy you back?

Just a thought.

pixie..you need to do something that. that's just #&%!$ed up...I mean...I "understand' that some can't say no to their pets...but umm... poising the bird on purpose with junk food...that's just strange. Are they loud? Maybe she really IS trying to get rid of them? you know... people sometimes work in strange ways.

hahahaha...about the firealarm. My kid told the other day that during the last school year he pulled the firealarm by accident {hmm...} him and his friends got scared and ran. LOL...the whole hallway freaked out...but no firetruck got there.

NOW he tells me, like 9 month or so later... I thought that was pretty funny...[okay...yell at me for thinking that was funny]

Pixie...buy your coworker the same stuff and keep feeding it to her, okay not literaly feeding her, but keep bugging her to eat it.
oh hell...yeah...make her eat it. someone hold her down, and someone else stuff her face.

OK. He's at it again.

The guy in the next office is whistling the theme from Mayberry RFD and stamping his foot to keep time.

I'm going to go bludgeon him with a stapler.

I see I started this thread. Huh. I don't have co-workers anymore. Just annoying professors right now. Give me a week, and then I'm sure I'll have annoying classmates too.

You could call your formerly annoying co-workers and annoy them back now, with no fear of repercussions from your cult-leader former bosses.

Well, actually, I can't do that. I'm still working part-time there, a few hours a week. Though I hope to do most of it from home so that I don't have to see them.

Kidding. Most of my co-workers are cool. Only a few of them suck.

You could ask them when they plan on shedding their containers, and laugh at them when they look at you funny.



Hell, it works for me.
