zones at work FTW. I'm uncomfortable maybe twice a year "


The person with the thermostat in their office in my zone is the one with the space heater. Result: It's always freezing because the thermostat thinks it's hot. It will even fire up the AC to make it colder, which just makes them turn on their space heater that much more.

I rigged a special vent cover that lets me adjust the AC flow - even block the flow entirely. I don't have to wear a coat anymore.

Then when it gets rejected by the customer, it is somehow suddenly your fault? Management is comprised of idiots, morons, and spineless douches.

I don't really have anything to complain about right now. This is so rare, I figured I'd post about it.

someone just told me they expect me to know every single class/event happening on all of NCSU's campuses, since I answer a phone on campus.

And her reason for wanting me to know all this was to catch someone in a lie.

yeah, i would totally do that, except hes a manager. and i'm not.

but seriously, it's not exactly annoying. it's more like incredibly ridiculous in an "I cant believe he does this every YEAR" sort of way

Several of the men's rooms around here are set up with one stall and one urinal. So this morning I find myself in the stall, going about my business, when a guy walks in and uses the urinal. He finishes, washes his hands, and as he's leaving flips off the lightswitch, leaving me totally in the dark in a windowless room.

Not sure if he was being malicious or just didn't notice me and was trying to be energy-conscious, but either way, thank goodness that my phone has a flash light option!

More a "life annoyance" than a workplace annoyance, but it did happen at work.

When our server crashes and I can't do any work. I guess it's time to do some of that paperwork I've been putting off.

Actually, no it's not, because I can't print either. Lame.

i hate when my boss doesn't understand the projects that she asks me to do. she expects things to be done quickly and easily (because i don't normally tell her how much work is involved with these projects) ALL THE TIME.
