OH YOU MEAN LIKE THE ONES WHO KNOW ENGLISH?

9/21/2009 10:43:39 AM

except/accept is an often-made grammatical mistake

lay off the girl

9/21/2009 10:46:56 AM

common mistake != acceptable

9/21/2009 11:36:03 AM

omg my coworker is SOO loud. She is across the room and I can EVERY SINGLE WORD of every conversation she has

and in about 5 minutes her cell phone is going to ring very loudly because her kids will be home like it does every day

9/21/2009 3:34:49 PM

Low concrete breaks.

9/21/2009 3:35:44 PM

We were having cake for someone's birthday and there was a lull in the conversation. Some guy said "You guys suck at small talk. Here's a topic: What's the difference between corn beef and pastrami?". I sat there like "WTF? Is that better?". Then two people whipped out their cell phones and looked it up.

9/21/2009 3:57:10 PM

"Network cables unplugged.... what could that mean?"

"..." *headdesk*

but lulz, I did get this email later:

Thanks for your help, sorry I pulled a Jessica Simpson on you.

9/23/2009 10:12:01 AM

haha

9/23/2009 10:12:43 AM

^^ haha

9/23/2009 10:13:40 AM

I hate our clients sometime

Look, bitch. We have a video of you NOT falling. You also did not "lay down" on the pallet you claimed to have fallen back on.

Her response? (to the attorney)

"Well, I guess I have a different terminology regarding 'laying down.'"

WHAT. ARE. YOU. TALKING. ABOUT.

9/23/2009 10:14:55 AM

you said bitch to a client?

9/23/2009 10:17:36 AM

Giving people a laptop and a blackberry when they can barely wipe their ass is beyond me. And don't get mad at me because RIM is experiencing a nationwide email outage and you're not getting emails. :carl face:

i've given up on being annoyed about my job at this point... time to just put my head down and plow forward

9/23/2009 10:19:52 AM

After being told that were most likely weren't ordering another computer, the guy goes and throws it in the trash and tells us to order one. :carl face: Think we should expense the new computer to his salary.

nooooooooo but she was being so argumentative finally the attorney said: "Alright, look. It didn't happen on the tape. I hate to be so blunt with you."

I feel like when your attorney says they didn't even see you fall on said tape... that's really bad.

9/23/2009 10:58:24 AM

i wouldnt be so annoyed with work if we stayed busy and i got more money!!!!!!

9/23/2009 11:00:29 AM

I like my job.

I get paid well, stock options, great benefits.

my only annoyance is with people who constantly complain about their job.

wtf, i'd been fired on the spot for some shit like that, lol

9/23/2009 2:13:27 PM

oh my god oh my god oh my god

when you're on the phone with someone and they're giving you a phone number, and they say one set of numbers at a time, then pause until you say "uh huh" before they continue

"You ready? yes The number is...704....uh huh...836....uh huh...3459"


Like I'm 5 fucking years old

Just say the whole number at once, with a 1 second pause after each set !!!

9/23/2009 2:20:41 PM

^ i just sit in complete silence until they say something dumb like "you ready?". then i respond with a "I'm waiting" in my best :rolly-eye: voice.

but i've always been passive-aggressive like that.

9/23/2009 6:00:23 PM

so we just got a call from our regular prank caller that tries to talk to the female front desk staff and says perverted things etc

9/24/2009 9:07:58 PM

ah ... the trials and tribulations of the reception / call support crew.

thanks for keeping us up to date on whats happening down in the trenches.

keep fighting the good fight, mate.

9/24/2009 9:40:57 PM

hopefully qtmnfred says something to you. if i get threatened with termination, i expect the same treatment to others.

the coworker who is off work today, but said she'd come in to partake in the Chili Cook-Off - and didn't actually offer to bring any food.

^ ugh, that's just terrible.

terrible as in, petty contrived bullshit and the guy who wrote it needs a swift kick in the nuts.

9/25/2009 11:06:38 AM

There are 3 phones in the lobby. One of my stupid coworkers must not have hearing perception because she can NEVER find the one that's ringing... Always picks up the wrong one, "Hello... Hello?"

HEY *****!!! That's the wrong phone dumbass!!! Answer the one over there! Gosh really? Can someone be that stupid that they can't tell where the phone is ringing? Sometimes someone will call you via intercom on the phones. It's like playing marco-polo with this chick. "HEY *****, I'm at this phone... No... you sound like you are walking away from me.. NOT THAT PHONE, THIS PHONE. COME THIS WAY.. YOU KNOW WHAT, NEVERMIND, I'll CALL THE PHONE YOU ARE WALKING TO BECAUSE I HAVE A BETTER IDEA WHERE YOU ARE IN THE ROOM THAN YOU DO AND I CAN'T EVEN SEE YOU."

The cleaning people closed my blinds all the way and now I can't reach the cord to open them

9/29/2009 9:24:42 AM

Heh.

9/29/2009 11:02:30 AM

So today I had an interesting experience with our Canon Image runner printer. The printer just threw a fire hazard error code. Apparently the "fuser" inside the subsystem is no longer reporting the temperature inside the printer. I googled it and if you keep it powered on, there is a real threat of starting a fire if left unchecked. This is annoying because I have to explain all this shit to the service tech all over again, even though I know exactly which hardware component needs to be replaced to fix the issue.

9/29/2009 11:38:14 AM

The urgency of "this goes live on Monday" seems to be lost on some people, even though it's 3:30 on Friday.

10/2/2009 3:27:51 PM

"will you please speak up?" is not the same as "DUR DE DUR I'M ST00PID"

Nor is it an invitation to be rude and condescending.

It means I can't fucking hear you.

10/14/2009 10:44:13 AM

this girl across from me who never makes a call that is NOT on speaker phone...and they are all personal calls. I know way too much about her sister and her sister's bf.

10/14/2009 11:35:01 AM

The douche who has to have his desk phone at full volume and then will leave and not put his phone on DND.

I unplugged it.

10/14/2009 11:45:54 AM

We started this way-more-fun-than-it-should-be thing at meeting a few weeks back where we give someone a round of applause for really mundane things, like asking a question, coming back from the bathroom, joining a conference call, etc

It's been a blast, but it has run its course, and today I made a motion that we retire it, and everyone solemnly agreed

A sad day indeed

People who come to work sick and obviously contagious...

10/15/2009 11:25:06 AM

People that show up late to meetings and then won't stop talking so we can leave. Flashbacks to some of my classes at NCSU.

10/15/2009 11:28:37 AM

when my boss asks me to do something. i do it. she doesn't look at it, and asks me to do it again.

ugh

10/15/2009 11:31:27 AM

3 bio hoods running full force 24-7 in the room that encompasses my office, im slowly going deaf in my left ear i think....

closing the door makes my boss think i'm not here for some reason...

10/15/2009 11:32:02 AM

oh an the inability of people to do the simplest tasks on their own makes me

10/15/2009 11:41:43 AM

^ i have that problem in my office.

people will start to install a computer program from cd and then call me over saying they're stuck.

i go see what the problem is and the screen says "this will install __________ program. click next to continue"

and i ask what the problem is

and they tell me that they weren't sure what to do

10/15/2009 11:45:16 AM

2pm meetings

i take like 1145-1 for lunch, it's not like im going to get to be able to work on much of anything between 1 and 2.

10/15/2009 1:18:16 PM

people who still laugh at the word "dongle"

oh wait, that's me
