i have been told to fire one of the guys who works for me, and he is a diehard UNC fan

im tempted to get him just as he starts bragging in the morning

4/6/2009 10:48:04 PM

Oh my god.
Do it.

4/6/2009 11:43:01 PM

he gets here at 830, and i had an email from my boss want to know if i had done it already

im such a sissy when it comes to letting someone go, i dont like doing it

4/7/2009 8:23:06 AM

Hahaha be like "So who is your favorite team?"

When he says UNC, just be like "Wrong answer. You're fired."

4/7/2009 11:13:53 AM

LOL. how did this go????

4/7/2009 11:15:51 AM

lack of bathroom etiquette

1. when there are 3 stalls and only stall 1 is occupied - DO NOT CHOOSE STALL 2!!!!!!
2. when i go into the stall and close the door, it means NO TALKING!! i do not like having a conversation while i do my business
3. courtesy flush

my boss breaks all of these rules on a regular basis

4/8/2009 3:27:34 PM

I did half of a project and a co-worker did the other half, and at the beginning I went to him and said, "I was thinking we should arrange it like ____. Does that sound like it would work for you?" And he said it would.

But that's not the way he did it at all

4/9/2009 9:39:37 AM

That's why you never use the close bathroom.

DUDE

If the form is trying to open on multiple computers in a different language, then it's a problem with the form and not the intranet.

If you buy a book written in Spanish are you going to call the publisher to complain?

4/9/2009 1:46:17 PM

i cant double check your work mine is enough

4/14/2009 3:55:29 PM

Do I look like I need more drama right now? There are three or four ladies who absorb gossip like a sponge and spew it where necessary. We all know who they are, and I am not one of them.

Fuckers who say they greased something and when I go to check on it the motor is squealing like a stuck pig.

5/4/2009 4:55:24 PM

small one but...stupid freakin drink machine doesn't take dollar bills. it used to, and then just stopped.

5/4/2009 4:55:37 PM

There's one I wish I could post in here, but for once, I'm actually worried about it getting back to the wrong people.

5/4/2009 4:58:52 PM

IT Guy #1 called out today and I'm waiting to hear that Boss IT Guy is calling out.

and I am doing a ton of Wink videos that I should have done over the last 2 days, damn my procrastination.

this happens to me ALL THE TIME! but they only ask because I know my shit, so its ok.

I used to watch tv shows on hulu.com during lunch.

5/22/2009 2:41:41 PM

Not enough hours. Must make more money.

5/22/2009 3:21:30 PM

The movers broke the plate glass top on my desk.

Presumably they're responsible for replacing it, but it's going to be a gigantic pain moving all my computer equipment when they do come to replace it. The irony of all this is that the desk in question is probably 40 years old or so, and the finish is all beat to hell, except for the top that was under glass...but hey, they broke it, they're fixing it. Not my dime.

5/22/2009 3:41:43 PM

The other guys in my lab slurping their soup/noodles to the last drop.

SLUUUURRRRRPPPPP
SLUUURRRRPPPPP

I'm sure I sound like I'm just bitching, but its *unbelievably* loud.

5/22/2009 4:11:12 PM

why do people feel the need to always constantly run everywhere they go?!

5/22/2009 7:30:15 PM

its my 1 year workiversary and things ssuuuccckkk

This "temporary" secretary work has gone from 1 hour a week to 4 hours 3 times a week, but while doing the secretary gig I can't work on IT things because I'm so busy.

I am not pleased.

5/27/2009 1:12:55 PM

this dude just sent out an email w/ no subject

then 30 secs later he sends the same damn email w/ the subject

motherfucker, what did that help?

5/27/2009 2:53:47 PM

our secretary once sent out an email to the whole office about something, but forgot to attach her little "signature" at the bottom.

so a minute later we get the same email, and it says "Sorry I forgot to attach my signature to the last email, just want to make sure you know who sent it."

5/27/2009 2:55:12 PM

i never did finish my story

so i called mr unc fan in, and told him he had pissed all the customers off

i told him he had to get the problem fixed, and he chose to quit rather than try

but i put fired instead of quit so he could get unemployment

5/27/2009 3:05:17 PM

this lady that forwards her weekly email from DBAP

look, lady, if we care about what's going on with the durham bulls, we'll fucking sign up for the newsletter

5/28/2009 3:04:36 PM

Hearing-deficient coworkers who probably don't know this.

It dawned on me the other day: this otherwise socially normal chick yells all the damn time. EVERY. SINGLE. INTERACTION. Normal conversation...outside voice.

I don't know why it clicked, but it did. Now she annoys me a little less

5/31/2009 8:43:19 AM

Oh
And a coworker whose email has been hacked. I called her two weeks ago to let her know, and she still hasn't taken care of it.

folks who don't know how to increase the row height in excel

look, dude, you don't have to use both rows 1 and 2 just to get your column headings to be two lines tall. it makes you look dumb.

6/1/2009 9:37:07 AM

that fucking nextel direct connect beep.

6/1/2009 9:38:45 AM

People that always screen their calls and never answer the phone, even when you know they are sitting at their desk staring at the phone waiting for it to go to voicemail so they can check it immediately.

6/1/2009 9:42:18 AM

Not being able to control the temperature in my office; the only thermostat in our wing controls all 9 offices on our floor. It's too cold in the main body of the building, and too hot in the south wing.

People who drive up to the gate and don't have their badges ready.
People who drive up to the gate and are too far away from the card reader to swipe their badges.
People who drive up to the gate and realize they have forgotten their badges.

6/4/2009 9:45:09 AM

People who feel the need to flush the toilet to hide when they fart. Its a fucking bathroom, thats where farting happens.

6/4/2009 9:47:01 AM

When the entire company network is down for the first two hours of the work day.

When the first and only call I get on my office phone in my first ever office is a wrong number.

6/4/2009 9:48:29 AM

When your predecessor has debt problems and his creditors still call you at work.

6/4/2009 9:55:33 AM

When someone switches cubes and accidentally fwds their old phone # to your phone.

I get calls from some kinda online pharmacy shit on a weekly basis for the girl who had my number last. She hasn't worked here in almost 4 years yet for some reason, they keep fucking calling. And everytime they call I tell them to stop calling and they never fucking stop.

This was happening so frequently with the person before me... I found his number and email address and give it out when they call for him now, he hasn't been here for three years.

HR people who have nothing better to than keep changing the damn "mandatory" signatures in outlook.

no one in engineering really gives a shit, if we wanna see who sent the email, we'll check the "From:" dialogue.
