The office supervisor does that to me all the time. I have to reconfigure my cubicle b/c I HATE people sneaking up on me like that.

I am so ready for the weekend. :)

I've been trying to figure out how to reconfigure my cubicle to prevent that but no matter what people can sneak up. :mad:

I was once a cubicle rat in a call center. Sneaking up behind was the least of my worries. It was especially creepy to learn that the supervisor was jacked in, listening to my calls...after the fact.


There are a couple of things I would like to say but can't:

* Either stop talking to me and let me work or don't bitch when I don't clock out early because you wanted to chit chat. Ain't my fault you won't go away.

* I saw this on a little plaque thingy and I want it: Please do not move the things on my desk. You will confuse me and screw up my whole world.

It's okay that you brought your relative in for your appointment. I'm sure that he contributed to the conversation.

BUT, as he still has some physical limitations as a result of his recent stroke, if there's an accident, the LEAST you could do is ASSIST in the clean up.

Staying in the office while the clean up was going on is not a cool look:mad:

I really DONT care how your weekend was. It's just the polite thing to say on a Monday. So, keep it short and keep it moving.

I know how to set up a G-D invoice...I just need the price you want to charge, since you're such a control freak about that, and anytime I work up a price, you have to change it somehow.

Hey boss -

It's bad enough that you walk around the office singing off-key. And I know you have a little girl. But really - the Barney the Purple Dinosaur theme song sounds bad enough when it's in key.

If you hate your job so much, and you think they are so "not very nice" why don't you quit? I am sick and tired of your petulant attitude and frosty icey glares....I can deal with your silent treatment because I took 4 unanticipated day off TO DEAL WITH MY SISTER WHO WAS DIAGNOSIS WITH PANCREATIC CANCER and poor you were left to answer the phone yourself. Trust me wench, I can be *silent* longer than you can.

Gawd you annoy the crap out of me.

SWTXBelle 08-08-2007 07:20 AM

aephia alum - I think that constitutes some sort of harassment.

AlethiaSi 08-08-2007 10:07 AM

why does the sickeningly sweet voice, niceness bother me so much?! I'm cranky and i'm verging on irrate... leave me the hell alone. :mad:

ForeverRoses 08-09-2007 03:36 PM

I love that my boss is just as sarcastic as I am.

It makes the day go so much faster when I know I have someone to vent to who will completely understand and will probably join in without holding any of it against me.

GeekyPenguin 08-09-2007 07:15 PM

Hey boss,

It might have been nice if when the entire staff voted that they did not want to have an intern for the summer, you would have told me that you did not want to have an intern instead of bringing me on early.

Now I'm thinking about quitting early in the middle of a murder trial, you smarmy jellyfish.

Very truly yours,
GP
