Had to place a last minute catering order. Place we usually use wasn't picking up their phone so I called another place instead. Just as I finish placing the order the first place decides to finally call me back. You snooze you lose 9/23/2011 11:36:19 AM |

I wish my coworker didn't do stupid shit. An alternate upgrade would have saved him a few steps. He also always calls the wrong people for the wrong reasons. >_< 9/24/2011 4:50:46 PM |

as annoying as overlong email titles can be, I would MUCH rather have an overlong email title with the full question in it than an email with no subject or a terrible subject and all the information inside. Going back to find emails 6 months later when someone titles it "hey" is a pita. And even in the present, when I am working on 3-4 projects it is annoying when no one specifies what project they are asking you about in the body at least but preferably in the subject. 9/27/2011 1:51:37 PM |

I work for a state agency in SC. According to Gov. Nikki Haley here in SC, all state government workers are suppose to greet public calls with, “It’s a great day in South Carolina. How can I help you?”

People pull that shit at my work alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the time. My favorite was this retarded email conversation I had yesterday at work.
Two weeks ago I email this woman asking her for a file. By Monday she still hadn't answered me, so my boss told me to email this chick's secretary for the file. Secretary sends file.
Happy ending, right? Nope, get a snotty ass email from the chick saying, "If I don't respond to your email, you should just call me to ask me to respond to your email."
Because that's an efficient use of my time and resources 10/12/2011 1:45:30 PM |

Definitely annoying. If it is someone who purposely does this on a regular basis and it is something I really want documentation of, I always send a follow-up email to the phone conversation that basically says 'this is a record of our phone conversation at X time on X day. This is what was discussed and these are the action items. If you disagree with anything here let me know otherwise I'm moving forward based on the phone call.'
If they are really flaky, and I wasn't planning to already, I'll CC someone who is somewhat related to the conversation just so that I have extra proof that it was sent on this date besides my saved sent mail.10/12/2011 1:59:01 PM |

Dude behind me has evidently been typing the great american novel into an e-mail. He's been at it forever. This wouldn't be so bad if not for the fact that a)he's a loud typer and b)his keyboard tray makes this annoying high-pitched squeak continually while he types. ARGHHHH.

if you're going to make me use this slow ass, horribly coded file sharing site; at least provide tech support for it. or give me the contact information for tech support and i'll talk to them.
your answers of "i don't know", "never seen that", etc. do not help me. 10/21/2011 3:52:56 PM |

I may be a little whiny today, but I don't think its fair that my coworker has waited all year to use up her vacation time, and now she's taking every fucking Friday off until the end of the year.
We have double log deadlines on Fridays and they're nuts around here, and of course my boss is "oh whatever" because he could give a flying fuck about anything as long as its not affecting his paycheck.
I don't think you should be allowed to do that 11/7/2011 10:28:52 AM |
BobbyDigital Thots and Prayers 41777 Posts user info edit post |
I've always thought it absolutely silly that many companies don't allow vacation day carryover from one year to the next. All it does is result in a concentration of employees taking vacation days at the end of the year and bringing overall company productivity to a crawl. 11/7/2011 10:47:31 AM |
Doss2k All American 18474 Posts user info edit post |
My boss had allowed me to carry over days but over the years that has turned into me carrying more and more over so he told me starting this year we must use our days by the end of the year. So rather than letting me take every friday or monday off for the last 3 months of the year he instead decided it was better to just give me an extra paycheck for 10 of those days. That will be added onto my bonus so I expect a large check before christmas time . 11/7/2011 10:51:26 AM |
