Oh and what's up with women wanting the heat turned up in the workplace? It's 77 degrees up in this bitch.

I used to work in a bank with all women and I fought with them every day over the damn A/C. They liked it stifling hot. I loved it when customers complained because I could turn to the women and say see, it's too damn hot in here.

Seriously. Girls like it way too hot. We have one girl in my house, and she turned the freaking HEAT on. My room is always way hotter than the rest and I like it COLLLDDDD.

I got co-workers that like to talk about their hobbies a lot. Just because I have a bike doesn't mean I want to hear about you working on a customizing your bike almost every fucking day.

Oh and saying "your moma" out of nowhere and out of context is totally retarded...especially if the co-worker you're saying it to is in his mid 40's.

Got to agree with you here, this drives me fucking nuts. Like, I have a fork in my goddamned hand, what is so fucking complicated? It's even better when they walk up on you start asking their questions, and then go, "oh, you're eating lunch, sorry to interrupt" and continue on interrupting. I wait til their finished, then look them dead in the eye for about 20-30 seconds, long enough to be a good uncomfortable silence, and then answer their question before turning back to my lunch without waiting for them to ask follow ups...

I got a big scare at the office today (which is where I still am and I think I'm about to lose my mind)....

For a couple of hours our company's IT people had a ton of websites on lockdown. I obviously couldn't check my yahoo fantasy baseball team but I also couldn't check my Yahoo email. I couldn't get on the Post's sports page or log onto my second home, The Warpath. I couldn't get onto a client's website since it's a retail store. Basically I couldn't get anywhere, except for espn.com, which was weird.

I can understand the fantasy sports websites and ebay, amazon, etc. but Yahoo email? Our company handbook specifically says it is ok to check person email accounts from company computers as long as it doesn't interfere with work.

Anyway, all back to normal... for now.

I know it's not a big deal but this kind of thing really pisses me off. Our company was hit hard because of the economy, just like everyone else, so this is one of those little things that just makes you say "seriously, this is what our corporate office is worried about?"

Did they have a virus scare? Our network has been on shutdown a few times cause some dumbass had a an infected VMWare image and IT couldn't locate it.

Where the heck is my stapler!?!?!?

(I actually DO have someone who swipes my stapler at least twice a month. I always know exactly which office to retrieve it from at least).

mredskins · 06-07-2010, 01:29 PM

My job is so unbelievable. I'll try to sum it up by first telling you about the folks I work with:

First, there is this supermodel wanna-be chick. Yeah, okay, she is pretty hot, but damn is she completely useless. The girl is constantly fixing her hair or putting on makeup. She is extremely self-centered and has never once considered the needs or wants of anyone but herself. She is as dumb as a box of rocks, and I still find it surprising that she has enough brain power to continue to breathe.

The next chick is completely the opposite. She might even be one of the smartest people on the planet. Her career opportunities are endless, and yet she is here with us. She is a zero on a scale of 1 to 10. I'm not sure she even showers, much less shaves her "womanly" parts. I think she might be a lesbian, because every time we drive by the hardware store, she moans like a cat in heat.

But the jewel of the crowd has got to be the damn stoner. And this guy is more than just your average pothead. In fact, he is baked before he comes to work, during work, and I'm sure after work. He probably hasn't been sober anytime in the last ten years, and he's only 22. He dresses like a beatnik throwback from the 1960's, and to make things worse, he brings his big dog to work. Every day I have to look at this huge Great Dane walk around half-stoned from the second-hand smoke. Hell, sometimes I even think it's trying to talk with its constant bellowing. Also, both of them are constantly hungry, requiring multiple stops to McDonald's and Burger King, every single bloody day.

Anyway, I drive these folks around in my van and we solve mysteries and stuff.

I stole this joke for the record.

Wait, you've taken her out on dates?
