Sometimes I wonder if the people in the art department, one person in particular, ever read anything I put in an e-mail. Even if they do, they ignore it anyway, which is annoying as hell because they just make more work for both of us later on.

at the receptionist job:

someone walks up, and asks if another facility on site is open right now.

I tell her that I don't know: they get people coming by for visits on saturdays, but they NEVER. EVER. ANSWER THEIR FUCKING PHONE! (like, even during the week)

"Well, will you call and find out for me plz?"


...I was just gonna pull up their website and look, but since she was pushy, I did as she asked. And then explaining to her 'That didn't help. No one answered the phone. I'm gonna pull up their website' got me a "What? I don't understand" response.


Die, you fucking cunt.

My office is a large office divided into three individual work areas. The room has 10 or 11 foot ceilings, but the divider walls are 8 feet high, so dust collects along the top edge. So the custodian comes in to dust along the top of the divider walls, and makes kind of a lot of noise doing so. This, I can handle.

However, when she's done, she proceeds to sweep up all the dust and shit she's knocked down. By the way, my office is carpeted. If you've ever used a broom on carpet, you know that not only does it not do a good job, it takes forever. So for about 10 minutes I'm hearing *sweep sweep sweep sweep sweep* over and over again.

She has a vacuum...I've seen it...is it not logical that 1 minute of vacuuming is less disturbing than 10 minutes of loud sweeping? On carpet???

Just "officially" got my own business yesterday that will start up this fall. The owner before me didn't pay rent, took sales down from $1750/week to $500/week, and generally let the business fall apart. So, I'm having to rebuild the business and work with people who have a generally bad view of the business because of the previous owner...that's annoying.

at the delivery job: assholes who call 10, 15, 20 minutes after they've placed their order (and therefore, after I've left the office where drinks are kept) to add on a drink. That's why your soda was warm and shaken today, asshole: I had to stop at the store to buy a drink for you, and accidentally dropped it when I almost tripped on a damn hole in the parking lot.

At the delivery job, but also in general: the whore who is batshit crazy, thinks everyone around her actually cares about her personal life, problems, and family issues, and is transparently fake with her 'kindness'. Stop calling me 'hon', 'baby', 'sweetheart', and all those other names when you and I both know we hate each other. There's a reason I say as little as possible to you, 'hang up' on you, and bail early, despite the potential for more money.

I seriously dreamt about this bitch last night. In my dream, I dreamt that I had decided to not go into the office at the start of my shift, but sit outside. She comes out, wants to chat, and I start beating her ass and trying to throw her in the river. She hit me, so I stabbed her in the eye with a pencil and then broke her neck.

That's how much I hate her.

Sadly, a new dispatcher, who also doesn't seem to realize that most of us don't care about her woes, has been hired. And often works with the first nut. So they keep each other going by giving each other sympathy and attention.

Guess what. Looking for a new place to live is not the crisis you're making it out to be, drama whore.

People who breathe heavily at the urinal bother me. There's no reason to be huffing and puffing while taking a squirt, unless you're so fucking fat that your chest flab is crushing your lungs.

i hate it when people leave time on the microwaves. yeah, it's easy to clear, but it's annoying when i go up there and try to enter my time and nothing happens.

we all know your breakfast sandwich doesn't need to cook for 11:11, it's actually one less button to enter 1:30 and press start like the rest of us. i just used the thing and there was 12:49 left on the timer. jesus.

I am all the time pushing the clear button when I walk by the microwave. But I work with a bunch of lazy people. They can't even close a closet door, so why would I expect them to clear the microwave timer?

THE MOTHERFUCKER WITH PNEUMONIA THAT IS CONTAGIOUS THAT WILL NOT GO HOME

he's been coughing up who knows what since monday. actually coughing something out of his chest into his hand. he gags too. he finally went to the doctor yesterday after enough of us bitched, came back and said the dr said he had pneumonia and that he's still contagious for 24 hours after he takes his first dose of meds.

we had to work hard to convince him to leave yesterday. i wiped down all the door handles, light switches, etc w/ lysol wipes...

and he is BACK this morning. he didn't take his medicine until after lunch yesterday. i have a weak immune system and minor colds for other ppl are super major ones for me.

stay the fuck away damn it

Watching people on food stamps buy shit they shouldn't.

Dude came in and bought 6 bucks worth of fresh pineapple and a $6 bottle of salad dressing.

Can't believe I work 40 hours a week so these people can eat better than I do and be frivolous with the funds they get .

We have barely any dress code here, which allows people to wear flip-flops. I hate those fucking things, they make that damn slap-slap-slap sound when people walk by.

Fire alarm tests suck as well. The alarm went off right as I was unlocking the back door, scared the shit out of me.

We have a "dress code" here. It's supposed to business casual at the least, well this girl who is the cousin of our VP NEVER shows up in dress code. Today she has on a tank top with jeans and platform flip flops. I get so mad when I see her. She never shows up on time, is loud and tries to cuss out everyone, and never dresses right.

lol @ fire alarm tests. We had a series of those last week. The strobe light thingies are annoying!
