You need to make fun of him because he can't count.

5/15/2008 4:09:01 PM

the guy on the other side of the room who stretches and grunts/moans and makes all kinds of almost inappropriate noises.

5/15/2008 4:09:55 PM

I can count. I just prefer number systems other than base 10.

5/15/2008 4:10:37 PM

you put 4 ^ when you only needed 3

5/15/2008 4:11:45 PM

Sigh, I'll let Ben explain it.

A quick call to OSHA will fix this problem.

People that burst into the conference room during a meeting like the building is on fire only to say "It's nothing important I just need to see x for a second after the meeting." If its not important it can fucking wait...

People who constantly bitch about "having to stay late", yet every single time I have left the office late said person is sitting there playing fucking solitaire.

5/15/2008 4:16:35 PM

who would bitch about having to stay late? unless you are salaried. then why bother if theres no work to do?

5/15/2008 4:32:06 PM

i'm trying to get my supervisor to get on sametime so i don't have to walk down two flights of stairs to talk to him..

ps-> i hate the telephone.. so that's not an option

5/16/2008 10:39:50 AM

I hate when my supervisor says there's an OMG SERIOUS PROBLEM WE NEED TO DISCUSS THIS THIS AFTERNOON and then leaves work at lunch time and never comes back.

5/16/2008 10:39:57 AM

how about when there is only a little bit of coffee left in the pot and people keep it on the burner so that it starts cooking into solid form.

5/16/2008 10:55:44 AM

i used to hate that and at our office we have more coffee drinkers than coffee makers and that would royally piss me off.

now, we have a fancy new coffee maker that only makes on cup at a time in less than 20 seconds. i love it.

5/16/2008 10:59:36 AM

aha they used to pull that crap at my last work. So I bought a French press for my desk and would use the hot water for tea to make my coffee.



After awhile they started cropping up on other people's desk in my section

5/16/2008 11:00:57 AM

we have a really bad problem with people drinking the last of the coffee and not making anymore... and i hate them.

i told the boss that we need to put up a camera and start firing people that do that. he seemed to like the idea, but didn't think the office manager would go for it.

5/16/2008 11:02:33 AM

The coffee in my office is so cheap that I buy a bag of Dunkin Donuts coffee every week. Of course that is $9 a week out of my pocket that others get to enjoy.

Where did you get the french press, how much are they, and what kind of coffee does it use? Great idea!

5/16/2008 11:05:19 AM

google

5/16/2008 11:05:41 AM

touche'

5/16/2008 11:06:34 AM

I bought mine at Kohls but these days you can find them just about anywhere. They range in price from $10-$30 usually. Depends mainly on how many cups of coffee it can make at a clip.

It can take any coffee It just has to be ground for a French press. Unless Dunkin Donuts completely fails at training their employees, saying you want a French press grind should be sufficient. If it's not, go buy a pound from a coffee shop, ask them what number grind they used, and then you can tell the fools at Dunkin Donuts the proper number.

I want to say it's a number 4 grind but I honestly don't remember

dunkin pregrinds the beans when you buy a bag

5/16/2008 11:10:09 AM

you can buy whole beans from DD

5/16/2008 11:11:11 AM

Oh really? Well you'll just have to buy the coffee from somewhere that sells whole bean.

I recommend this company: http://www.portorico.com/store/

Awesome coffee at very reasonable prices, especially their sale prices.

Man, how long does it take to make coffee? Less than two minutes?

5/16/2008 11:13:03 AM

I hate coffee so luckily that is something I never have to put up with.

5/16/2008 11:13:31 AM

my former boss used to make popcorn every fucking afternoon and would burn it half the time so we would all have to smell that stench.

also the person that sat behind me would blow air out of her nose about every 5 minutes. I kept waiting for something to come out and really hated it when she would talk to me, blow air out of her nose, and I would have to refrain from making a face and maintain eye contact.

5/16/2008 11:42:53 AM

man you people and your coffee

I hate being called "sir" at work. I'm only 23!

5/16/2008 4:45:17 PM

^I hate being called Ma'am, especially by people who are much older than I am

5/16/2008 4:50:02 PM

i hate it when people walk up behind me in my cubicle......

Courtesy of a friend who does web design/programming:

-Client, late Thursday morning: "Now I'm going on vacation over the weekend, so I need this by then."
-Friend says that's fine and informs the client it will take around 10 hours of work, so it should be easily doable by end of day tomorrow.

-Client, calling back around 2 PM on Thursday: "Is it done yet?"

3 hours != 10. Unless the client has a time machine he's not telling anyone about.

5/16/2008 5:33:53 PM

If he does have one, I want it

My biggest workplace annoyance:

A $600/year budget. WTF am I supposed to do with ~$50/month. That $50 has to maintain 32 apartments. I just want to know what kind of idiot decided this was a good idea. I have no budget for carpets or vinyl or pressure washing.

5/18/2008 10:21:27 AM

ahahaha that almost sounds like they forgot to type in an extra zero when writing the budget.

5/19/2008 3:08:50 AM

Semi-hugs turning into back-stroking.

Either you're hugging me out of formality or you're groping.

Don't confuse the two.

Or by all means confuse the two but don't act surprised when I flirt back atcha.

5/19/2008 3:11:31 AM

God

reading this thread on vacation = win (you know, other than on TWW on vacation. TWW > TV, ok?)

Makes me so glad I'm not working.

I love one job, and the other is ~ ...but I'm still loving this.

Whatever day it was that I was at the Grand Canyon, I had no signal on my cell. Every 15 minutes on the last three shifts before I left, I was being asked "What's your schedule next week?!?! We need it!" by someone new. Every time: "Dude, I'm not gonna be in Raleigh; ergo, I will not be working".

I got out of the Grand Canyon, and I have a text asking 'work sunday?' from some number I don't even fucking recognize. Pretty sure the only dispatcher whose number I don't have is a lesbian, but yet "I'm out of town, so no" turned into "WHY DOES EVERYONE HATE ME EVEN MY FIANCEE DOESN'T NEED ME! *click*"

women = :carlface:

I don't drink coffee, but I've been in the breakroom when other people complain about the sip and a half of coffee left on the burner. I think for me... one of the biggest annoyances is dudes wanting to talk to me while either (or both) of us are using the urinal(s). Seriously. Nothing other than "FIRE!" or "BOMB!" requires the urgency that makes it impossible to wait 4 damn minutes to tell me. But the usual "Ohh man...*exhale loudly* another day, same crap, huh? I'm ready to go home, I can tell you that for sure." Or the ever-popular, "Ahh man, back on the grind. Man, the weekend is just not long enough!"

stfu and wait til neither of us has our respective junks in our hands. thanks.
