What is that? What do I hear? You are talking to me after 8 work days of the silent treatment....to ask me if you can borrow my PERSONAL software to make YOUR job easier? And knock me over, because it is for a MAC you have the NERVE to ask me if I will do the edits AT HOME ON MY OWN TIME to make your job easier....

well don't you just have a HUGE pair for that...and you being female and all.

Watch me laugh in your general direction!

Very truly yours,

GP--can oh so relate. When I arrived for an internship, one I interviewed for and had to submit paperwork with the site approving it, I get there the first day my alleged supervisor is having a meltdown because she was dumped by her boyfriend. The rest of the staff humored her, comforted her. She asked me to come back in a few weeks, so she could deal with issues. Stupid me, I did, rather than run from that nuthouse, passing up what could have been a saner place. Nothing got better. Good luck.

I wanna know how you manage to never be on time from work....miss 2 and three days a week...go on vacation and then your first day back, you call in 'sick'.

Yet you have only been here a year and a 1/2.


I know you got kids and grand kinds but who in here doesn't?


Well me...

Yet, I am here at 7 30 religiously. I rarely miss anydays, but the one day I had to leave early cuz somehow my house alarm went off, the next day I got pulled for it.....


I am going to start a pool...a dollar per person per week....and the week you manage to come in on time everyday for a week, winner collects the pot.





The snowball in hell has the better chance here...

If it is that bad, if you hate it THAT much then leave. Quit bitchin and be OUT because I am beyond tired of hearing about it. After 2 years of complaining it really doesn't make you look noble or self-sacrifing, it just makes you look dumb. Hell look at me, I left and after two weeks of looking found a gig I LVOE making 50% more. It isn't because of where I went to college, it's because I KNEW I deserved far better than I was getting.

You really shouldn't write memos. Not only can't you spell (hmmm spell check), you contradict yourself to the point it is funny.

Wes - stop making personal calls and checking out CraigsList. You're at work, not at home. Also, quit with your stupid FAKE accent.

Kyleigh - speak when spoken to! Maybe you're lonely. It'd be because you're annoying. Go take your meds or something.

Alex - get off the phone! At least your on your cell phone/ear piece. Your mumbling annnoys me.

Eric - quit emailing everyone and their mama and quit watching streaming video.

Jessica - quit bitching about everyone else. I agree completely but you don't need to become like them!

To my supe - start time is 8am. Not some time between 8:05 and 8:30. How did you get promoted exactly?

Isnt it funny how the same people can take extra days off, and nothing gets said, but I come in 20 minutes late, stay three HOURS after my scheduled leave time (b/c we are short people and I am a team player ) and I get called for it? SERIOUSLY???!!

And YEAH to the lady who left here for another job and told you about your not-so-secret favortism.

Even though both of you are married to other people and you make a point of returning from lunch/coffee 3 minutes apart, everyone in the office knows what the two of you are up to.

Look, asshat. You can't just assign trouble tickets to me and forget about them. Yesterday, I was IN COURT. ALL FREAKING DAY. Did it NEVER occur to you that if you assign a ticket to me at 9:30am and I haven't actioned it by 3:30pm, maybe I'm NOT IN THE OFFICE??!

(Seriously. I was ready to rip this guy's head off and use it for a chamberpot.)

- Fix up the bathrooms already.
- Do not mess up the schedule or program descriptions.
- If we need to shelve, let us wear comfortable shoes and socks. I'm not even asking for jeans- not that I like them all that much anyway. Just footwear that will allow us to walk comfortably.
- PLEASE limit the internet usage for all patrons.
- PLEASE remind patrons that we are a LIBRARY, and NOT a one-stop social services center or shelter.
- Make sure the internet does not go down ever again.
- Put the water back in already.

We are here to help people. But they have to want to help themselves. To better themselves.
