A note to my coworker ...

[Shooter McGavin 7]

Dearest nutjob,

Most people, if someone was holding meetings and conference calls at their desk and it was becoming a distraction, would privately take the person aside and politely ask them to try to find a conference room, or somewhere a bit more appropriate for such activities. But I think your approach of a 5-minute tirade for all to hear about how, "I can't take this #### anymore," and, "It's driving me nuts", is much more appropriate in a business environment. Never mind that the rest of the people in the room deal with far more interruptions and distractions from your loud conversations about your grandkids, Weight Watchers, and the occasional screaming matches you have on the phone with your mother and siblings.

Now the poor socially awkward woman you screamed at will probably off herself tonight. But hey, no more disturbances, right?

Sorry if our snickering over here interrupted your flow,

SM

Bendy (on the phone): Hey John, are we on the West Coast or the East Coast?

Bendy:

SJ96: OMG, you're serious?

Bendy: Yes, c'mon, I'm on the phone...

SJ96: Oh, sorry, well, some people think Arizona is on the West Coast, but it's not. It's in the Western US, but not actually on the coast.

Bendy: You're not helping.

SJ96: We're on the West Coast.

Bendy (to the person on the phone): "We're on the West Coast."

Here was one I found classic but there was no dialog. Basically we now have a casual day on Friday. Due to a client visiting we had casual day "canceled" and moved to next week. On our internal website (company wide) 180000+ there was a picture of one of our client teams with a congratulations for a new contract blah blah blah.Everyone in the picture was dressed in casual attire.... :coffee:Nice image.

To the office Chris Farley impersonator,

Attempting a high five while telling me "thanks for hustling today" when you don't know what I did today and aren't my boss is just plain asinine. Attempting high fives while passing someone in the hall, who is obviously busy, is pretty damn gay regardless of who you are anyway.

Don't offer me high fives.

Thanks.

To my fellow engineers...

Your sales reps are frequently reaching out to me directly to work with your customers because you, their engineer, don't know our new products. Since it was just announced that you deserve congratulations for passing certification exams on three year old versions of our products that are set to "end of life" on Dec 31, 2009, you obviously have had time recently to study and learn. Why are you choosing studying and learning the old stuff when the certification you obtained is not a job requirement, and your sales reps are using me because you don't know the new stuff? Think about that! I'm a team player and here to help you, but get in the f'ing game here.

That is all.

P.S. Hey management! Congratulating them encourages this stupid crap. How 'bought giving your employees some proper direction?!?!

Dear Ned Flanders Mustache Looking Jackhole Idiot -

It might be advisable for you and your three inbred corporals of the Balloon Knot Squad to quit playing cards in the middle of the f'ing office during your lunch hour while your company is hemorrhaging cash and losing business. Yes I realize that even dipstick like you have a right to blow off some steam but do it somewhere else in which there are walls and doors between the people that have to listen to your overzealous whining about how someone should have led with a deuce instead of whatever the hell they seem to do wrong every day. Some of us are working and happen to be using the phone. It is not very easy to explain to management why people are yelling UNO! or GO FISH! or whatever the hell game you may be playing in kindergarten that day.

And I know it is you that your boss down the hall is referring to when I keep hearing him yell #######IT! when he gets a phone call and then see him storm off across the cube farm. You are worthless. And apparently can't play cards for ####!!

Stick to solitaire at your desk you #####.

Dear Bathroom Play-by-Play/Color Commentator Guy -

When I took this job back in July, I was rather disturbed to learn that the one bathroom in the entire office was located exactly 15 feet from your desk. Throughout my life, I have enjoyed furtive facilities, lightly trafficked and undisturbed. At my last job, I would pass on the frenetic Men’s Room located adjacent to our office doors and opted instead to venture to the quiet 12th floor, where I could poop in utter solitude. Moreover, I consider taking a crap on the company dime my God given right and do my best reading while tucked away in locked isolation.

Furthermore, when our boss forewarned me that you would make my pooping life here at the office a humiliating experience, I was dumbfounded and didn't quite understand the admonishment. He chuckled and said "Just you wait..."

Unfortunately, I couldn't wait, thanks to a healthy heaping of black beans the night prior and thermos full of black coffee that morning. So I grabbed some reading material, went into the bathroom, locked the door and sat. I took a moment to admire the clean facilities, the wicker basket full of magazines and newspapers, the expensive artwork and all the candles. The bathroom even has a lovely shower attached. If ever there was a place designed to enjoy a daily dump, this is it.

And then it started. I let out muted warning shot before the cannon fodder hit the bowl. No sooner did that one note tune exit my body did I hear the cackling sounds of your high pitched laugh, follwed by a loud, obnoxious "WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA". For a moment, I thought a hyena had entered the building. Then I remembered our boss's warning and knew right away that you were a debase, deranged version of the SNL "Copy Man" played by Rob Schnieder.

In the weeks and months since, I have been treated to rousing applause and several barked out, creative phrases like "Hey, we're trying to run a business out here" or "Oh my god, somebody has diarrhea" or my favorite "Dude, I'm on the phone!". It doesn't matter how hard I try to make as little noise as possible in there, it's as if you have a stethoscope to the door. You have taken what used to be an enjoyable workday past time and turned it into a traumatic experience. And I'm not alone. Everybody in the office is subject to your maniacal cat calls and turd analysis. What sucks is that when we try to flip the tables on you, you just laugh it off and feed on it. You come out of the bathroom holding up your arms like Rocky Balboa.

Not only do you yell and scream anytime you hear a fart, but you have been counting how many times each of us goes in there. If I go twice in a day, you say "Dude, what's wrong with you?" as if going twice in a day is abnormal. The day I went thrice, I thought you were going to call Ripley's. My poor boss installed a weather strip at the bottom of the door thinking that would help. Didn't work. Our poor analyst from India is so afraid of you that he drives to the grocery store to do his business. It's not funny. Also not funny is that you are a former body building champion who wakes up at 2am to work out every single day and could break me in half with your nostrils. Knock it the hell off. Let us poop in peace.

Sweet Kisses,

Poophobic

Good stuff

[Jobber 2,343]

Here's the conversation I heard while doing my normal business in the mens room at 7:00am sharp:

Guy1 was washing his hands when Guy2 comes in.

Guy2: What are you doing here?

Guy1: What?

Guy2: You're in the wrong room.

Guy1: Seriously?

Guy2: How's life treatin' ya?

No response, only the sound of the bathroom door swinging shut. Then Guy2 (while at the urinal) rips the juiciest fart I've heard in a while. He really should have wiped, but didn't.

Please someone kill me if I ever become that big of a doosh.
