^as-builts are the devil.

ill take it a step farther - customer wanting on the fly layout updates that change weekly because the project is in transition.... WHYYYYY....waste of drafting time

page 93

my coworker took a highlighter from my big pen cup to borrow then put it back but instead of putting it in the pen cup, he dropped it into my full, just brewed coffee mug sitting kinda near my pen container. Coffee splashed.


He was all oops.

and I was all

9/25/2012 9:18:16 AM

^One time I had a coworker come in to show me some kind of fingernail-sized widget, only to have it launched from his fintertips directly into my coffee mug

9/25/2012 9:22:27 AM

that's better than a fingernail-sized fingernail at least

9/25/2012 9:40:19 AM

yeah, well, goes without saying.

explain. having good as-builts makes my job so much easier.

im with nrr on this one

9/25/2012 12:30:13 PM

boss: "hey, nrr, did you update the drawings with those changes you made to that system?"

me: "what drawings? we don't even have drawings for that shit."

9/25/2012 12:33:01 PM

fuck the next guy who has to work on this!

9/25/2012 12:37:53 PM

obviously the people who have to glean the information and generate the as-built don't like them

9/25/2012 1:34:22 PM

only because they aren't tracking them through the project and only remember them 2 days before turnover documents are due. if you just do them throughout the project, generating them is easy.

9/25/2012 1:36:53 PM

that's how it should be done, no argument.

I barely have enough drafting time to complete shop fab drawings and field layout drawings as it is, then couple that with a very involved customer and time is just not there to do anything else.

9/25/2012 2:27:20 PM

me: "hey, guy, did you update the drawings with those changes you made to that system?"

guy: "what drawings? we don't even have drawings for that shit."

9/25/2012 2:31:36 PM

^^ i agree with this assessment

9/25/2012 2:48:50 PM

Some dumbass doctor's office in Cary keeps trying to send faxes to my office phone. I finally get a chance to Google their number and I call the office to tell them to stop jamming up my phone line with faxes. Receptionist's response? "Oh... well I don't know who I would tell that the phone number is wrong." I don't know, why don't you send out a mass email to your office telling them to stop using my phone number to try and fax crap to Duke Hospital

And then what happens five minutes after I get off the phone with her? They try to send another fax to my number

9/26/2012 11:29:54 AM

Correct response is to print out THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT NUMBER with one letter on each page (white letter, black background) and fax to their office.

9/26/2012 11:32:51 AM

if you have a fax machine, why dont you send them a fax telling them they are sending a fax to the wrong number

9/26/2012 11:33:21 AM

^^, ^ Good idea. If I get another fax from them today I'll do that

[Edited on September 26, 2012 at 11:34 AM. Reason : I'll do both ]

9/26/2012 11:33:38 AM

send faxes to their phone number

9/26/2012 11:33:48 AM

^ I thought about doing that, but they have one of those dial menus so I don't think sending them faxes to their phone line would cause nearly as much of an annoyance to them as it does me.

9/26/2012 11:36:15 AM

look bitch, I just brewed that coffee and I've been sitting here waiting for it to finish. YOU DONT GET TO JUST JUMP IN FRONT OF ME AND POUR THE FIRST CUP

10/1/2012 9:06:20 AM

^ I hate when bitches do that. They switched to one of those K-cup machines here because of constant drama with the coffee pot.

Alright dude, I told you twice in email and once in person if you want reimbursement you need to send me ORIGINAL receipts. So why are you surprised when I tell you your photocopies aren't going to cut it and you won't get reimbursements until I get original receipts?

10/1/2012 9:10:48 AM

Stop being a bitch and give the man his money.


And get off the Internet at work!

PS: I'm at the doctors office.

10/1/2012 9:20:27 AM

I would love to get a k-cup machine but I work with a bunch of save the environment hippies and apparently those disposable cups would make so much trash and the little reusable one would not be worth it. right now, the coffee grinds go right to the worm compost box so we really need to think about the worms

10/1/2012 9:22:59 AM

I'm waiting for a meeting to start

Trust me, I would just give him his money but it's the accounting department's dumb rule, not mine.

Why is the fucking air conditioner running? It is 12 degrees in here.

What does losing your employee ID card have to do with not turning in your documentation on time? The only thing the employee ID card is used for is buying food in the food court

coworkers who don't wash their hands after using the restroom

10/1/2012 2:39:57 PM

- forced into being a referee in an inter-department argument: purchasing agent and designer walk into my office, both talking to me at the same time, start arguing...over some dumb shit our fab shop should have just handled.

- coworkers who amuse themselves, and themselves only.

- can't talk design in front of VP because he will start a forceful redesign argument, regardless of what it is, and at what point in the project.

10/4/2012 10:49:25 AM

- coworkers who blink one eye at a time...wtf? (doublepostsuspend)

10/5/2012 3:17:57 PM

I became the workplace annoyance today. Burned a bag of popcorn in the kitchen and now our entire hallway stinks Sorry coworkers! At least I did it kind of close to quitting time for most of you

10/5/2012 3:19:09 PM

the coffee maker died and all it left behind is the strongest cup of coffee ever made

there's not enough sugar and milk in the world that could make this enjoyable. fml

10/9/2012 10:41:50 AM

so add a bit of water?

You would think the world is ending the way she's yelling out for me to help her in excel. She's pathetic.

I was on a commonly shared equipment at work. So common that there is a sign up sheet for it.

First come, first serve bitch. I don't care if your signal is going to fade and you feel like you have to go first.

I was on the machine when you came in, wait your turn, it'll be about 30 min.

She walks away saying, " 30 minutes? My signal's going to fade."

Sorry I am not getting off this machine for you.

Something on the last Firefox update isn't compatible with our website, so I can't put new articles in with that browser anymore. Except I keep forgetting until after I've pasted and formatted everything and it loads as blank.
