Things you want to say (but shouldn't) outloud at work

[texgal]

Give me something to do. PLEASE give me something to do. Do you realize that you're paying me to sit here in this office and stare out the window at the birds? Do you realize that one day I added 1+1 on the calculator until it reached 15,873 before someone finally came in to give me something to do? And I was finished with that in about ten minutes and went on to play solitare on my phone for the rest of the day?

WHY did you hire me if you have nothing for me to do?

To former boss (retail) ((I wish a retail job upon my worst enemies!)):
Stop bouncing my paychecks, I have rent to pay that doesn't get paid with bounced paychecks! And then don't tell me I can come by and take the $ from the register to cover your bounced checks when you arrive before you tell me to get there & take the $ from the sales yourself & *still* don't cover your bounced checks!

Re: agree w/ above quote & ditto to owner of last office job:

Side note: that office job (15 min of excel work for a 9 hour LONG BORING day) is what prompted me to go back to school & finish my degree! I couldn't envision continuing on & on & on...

What I would have loved to say @ that place:

to idiot industrial customers: Do you understand the concept of 'lead time'? Can you *try* to understand that your order has to be MADE & is NOT sitting here collecting dust, therefore ***NO*** we cannot ship out to you tomorrow the order you placed yesterday that has a lead time of 4-6 weeks!!! Plan accordingly!!!!
