""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!""

I tell those people: "Really? I love it here. I'd stay all night if they'd let me!"

of course i say the same shit occasionally, but i do it to my 1-2 friends that i work with, not to total strangers, and usually only once in a long while.

oh, and why cant your coworkers walk by you or your cube without making some "hello" comment 5 times a day. saying hi once when you first see someone is fine, but every time they walk by is just damn annoying. stop justifying your happiness with other people's politeness. ive just stopped making eye contact when i give my "hello" back.

ppl who constantly say "here's an fyi" and then pause for 3 seconds


now, each time a coworker comes up to me and says "here's an fyi...." i say under my breath "you're all gonna die"

5/19/2008 10:29:40 AM

That doesn't even make sense. You should start out the sentence with fyi.

5/19/2008 10:31:16 AM

they actually say other varations, never starting with FYI. i agree, you should just say "FYI" and then proceed to say your bullshit

here is a sample of doing it wrong:

1. just an fyi
2. and here's an fyi
3. i have an fyi

5/19/2008 10:33:30 AM

an?

yes

interrupt them during the pause and say "your using that expression incorrectly." and then just turn back to your computer/papers/etc.

irony.

5/19/2008 10:36:14 AM

The letter "f" spelled out is ef so when pronounced that way "an" is acceptable

5/19/2008 10:43:09 AM

5/19/2008 10:46:50 AM

I hear that. I used to write my entire programs in the main method back when I was taking java 101.

5/19/2008 10:49:20 AM

int main()
{

//wait, call a function? fork a process? make a thread? wtf??

}

be happy. you dont have dumb ass coworkers to bother you constantly. listen to music and work, or goof off on tww, whatever you do all day

5/19/2008 1:13:32 PM

There's this person who, instead of laughing, hisses like an angry cat so the whole office can here it.

It sounds disgusting and makes everyone in the office shudder constantly.

5/19/2008 1:55:06 PM

when there are 3 other people in my office, and they're all on the phone, it drives me batty!!!!!!!

5/19/2008 5:38:04 PM

i hate it when people have huge ass pictures of their fat-faced babies sleeping and drooling all over themselves all over their cubes.

5/19/2008 8:41:29 PM

Why are you going to call me when you KNOW I'm in a meeting? In fact, everyone should be in a meeting right now. Why are you not in a meeting? Oh that's right, because you're lazy and never come in on time for the meeting. And then you get pissed at me for not picking up the call. Really?

^ true, if you don't like your job you need to get a new one.

5/20/2008 7:51:43 PM

I tried to explain that to my roommates in college..they both absolute fucking hated their major but picked it because of the average incomes from that degree...

They're going to be miserable for a long long time

5/20/2008 7:59:35 PM

that's why there's a million computer engineering kids now who dont use their degrees

Let's face it though, it's not always that easy, especially depending on what your line of work is.

For example, my dad fucking hated his job for a long long time but he kept at it because he knew once he got to a certain level it would make it much easier for him to get a better position at a different company. So now he's much happier.

Or there are some people who just like to be miserable. I'm sure we all know at least one person like that.

My office door is about 15 feet from the conference room door.
There are people having a meeting in the conference room.
One of the people in this meeting is talking LOUD AS HELL and they're leaving the door open.


And as a bonus annoyance, I can usually park next to the building, but this morning they had Varsity closed off from Avent Ferry to Crest due to an accident. Guess where the one and only entrance to the Flex bldg. parking lot is? I had to park at the Avent Ferry complex and walk...not exactly a long hike but annoying.

5/21/2008 10:06:45 AM

just get up and ask them to close the door b/c of the distraction....
speak up people...dont let people run all over you.

5/21/2008 10:07:53 AM

^^you're pissed because someone got in an accident and you had to walk to your building?! seriously... things could be a lot worse... you could have been in that accident, for example.

5/21/2008 10:12:44 AM

When I don't see half the copy in a magazine or the proof, and then the magazine arrives and with a 30-second glance through it I see plenty of glaring errors. At least my name isn't on this one.

Now that I've had food & caffeine and am thinking more clearly, I suppose you're right.

However, I haven't a clue why that entire block was closed. The accident and all its attending vehicles were right up next to Crest, except for one police car that was blocking the road down at the Avent Ferry intersection. He could have posted up right next to the fire truck and had people turn around, and then it would have been possible to get into the driveway here.

triple threat thursday:
1) someone made popcorn

2) they left the butter oil all over the inside

3) they left 4 seconds on the clock (see earlier post when i was joking about this)

5/22/2008 12:11:33 PM

people who stand in your office doorway while you are on the phone, waiting to tell you some insignificant shit like "I'm going to lunch" or "I'm going to the bathroom" or "My family was run over by a bus" or "I think the internet is down"

5/22/2008 3:29:21 PM

then multitask

5/22/2008 3:39:52 PM

i would like to hang myself now please?

5/22/2008 4:12:23 PM

this office is freezing and I am bored to the point of tears

5/22/2008 4:13:20 PM

when your management tells you you've "volunteered" for something

5/22/2008 4:18:53 PM

I get sick of hearing the same stories over and over again. My co-worker in the next cubicle will tell me "such and such happened and caused such and such issue." Then I'll hear her tell the same story to 4 other people over the course of the day. Sometimes she's still telling the same story to someone else a day later. It's killing me.

5/23/2008 11:48:27 AM

Im sure its in this thread already, but people who come by your desk well after 5pm, see you are here, and try to strike up conversations.

Im sitting here working my ass off with my headphones on. I didnt stay late on memorial day weekend to socialize, let me get my shit done.

5/23/2008 5:12:55 PM

If you were in such a fucking hurry your ass wouldn't be on TWW right now bitching about people wasting your time.

5/23/2008 5:16:49 PM

Missing pieces.

We ordered a new hand truck since our old one was literally falling apart, and of course it arrived "some assembly required". First of all I had to go home and get my own socket set to put the thing together, since the sockets in the crappy little toolkit here are both incomplete and do not have a ratchet handle (instead they have one of those ratcheting screwdriver-type handles, hardly a substitute). Then, as I was going along, I discovered that they shorted us two cotter pins, one bolt, and one nut. So our brand-new, $450 hand truck is currently using bent paperclips instead of cotter pins in two places, and is missing a bolt. Still usable, but very annoying to be short 3 pieces of an item like that.
