Yabbut, you get a sympathy pass because you’re driving with a friggin’ cat in your car.
Hey, I always had the vet prescribe kitty tranks before attempting to transport cats in a car for any distance further than about 10 miles.
curlcoat, ladies and gentlemen: proudly defending her right to run over pedestrians and then blame it on the person who didn’t leap out of the crosswalk as she ran a red light.
1.) Pet rooms aren’t assigned to people without pets.
2.) Smoking rooms aren’t assigned to people who don’t smoke.
3.) Therefore, these rooms do not have to be cleaned to the same standards as the other rooms in the hotel.
You. Are. So. Fucking. Retarded. It. Isn’t. Even. Funny.
Oh, no. Oh, no no no. Categorically impossible, I’m afraid. But we appreciate the effort, even if curly just drooled obliviously while your words bounced off her impressively massive forehead.
Come on guys, I only said it was for a company he used to work for. Not that I would use it, even though I talked about using it. And when I did use it, it wasn’t to charge anything on it. Just to get the corporate rate. Um, for the company he doesn’t work for anymore. BUT YOU’RE LYING ABOUT ME!
But but but napkin sandwiches!
You know why an area is water-rich? Because people aren’t moving it all elsewhere. You know how an area will cease to be water-rich? By shipping a lot of it outside the water table.
Hello, consultant who just got transferred to me!
1.) Stop replying to my emails without deleting the attachments. I have them already. You can tell I have them already because they’re in the email I just fucking sent to you, which you’re replying to. It’s actually easier for you to delete them than not, because “Reply without attachments” is one option sooner than “Reply with history.”
2.) If you ask me to [company]-ize your documents, don’t come back whinging that you want me to change them back to the way you had them because you don’t like some formatting or another. That’s our new company standard and part of our branding. Please respect that I know what the fuck I’m talking about, and if I changed something you did, it’s because it’s fucking wrong.
So you demand that I make a change, then have a long, intense chat discussion about the change without including me, then assign a bug to me that consists purely of the transcript of this long involved chat, and expect me to make something out of it? Listen people, I didn’t want the change in the first place or I’d have written things like that in the first place. Also, if you want me to do something YOU figure out what you want me to do. Better yet do it your own goddamn selves, you’re able. Stop acting like spoiled fucking three-year-olds, first throwing a tantrum because something I did isn’t how you want it, then looking to me to make you feel better. You pissed me off. Now you deal with me being pissed off.
Cuz that bug is still going to be sitting in my cue when I go into labor, I promise. And I’m not coming back.
There is no hope for some people, Shot. My boss fowards me emails when I was cc:'d on the original. :smack:
Anti griping!
The coworker who has been repeatedly stealing credit for work I’ve been doing just screwed himself. On a bad conference line (so he couldn’t hear the people trying to stop him) he attempted to give an update on an issue that I’ve been working with half a dozen people all day to resolve. His update was wrong and the program manager was in the room with me and the team all morning.
Vindication you are sweet.
Can you send communication emails without attachments, and an instruction to look for the actual attachments in an email from another account (one that doesn’t accept replies)?
Pffffft. Just tell him [her] “no,” and move on with your day.
No.
Not an option. I don’t know this person well enough to know how hard I can push back, and this isn’t a big enough deviation that it’s worth fighting over.
Well, apparently the last person doing our billing filing could smell what was coming and was looking for a new job while still on the clock at her previous one. Grandboss was just in here walking the new girl through our filing system, and they discovered a stack of Previous Girl’s resumes. That was entertaining!
Also - she’s saying a pedestrian should take the precaution of avoiding cars. Wouldn’t that be akin to an allergic person taking precautions to avoiding allergens by booking a pet-free room? Her desire to take her furbaby into any room she pleases is more like saying that she should be able to drive on the sidewalk when she wants to - after all, the pedestrians can still look out for her, right? They should realize that no amount of inconvenience to them is of greater concern that her personal desires!
You don’t understand me! I spent my time just trying to stay alive!
I suspect there are many reports of encounters with curlcoat at http://notalwaysright.com.
Most of which will be filed under ‘Empress of the Universe’
But big enough to come and complain to us about?
I keed, I keed.
Heh - that IS entertaining! Did she file them under, “Take this job and shove it?”
Don’t get me wrong. I’m thrilled to have a job, since I was unemployed for over a year. I love the work, I’m busy and the day goes by quickly. But could someone please please move the thermostat up from 62…Please. My hands are so cold, I can barley use them. My nose feels like it is going to fall off my face. I’m doing what I can. I wear lots of clothes, I have a blanket for my legs. But I can’t work with gloves and a ski mask or scarf wrapped around my head. And I’m not the only one that is uncomfortable. There are several of us that never remove our coats the whole day. So, Please, lets move that thing up just a bit!
Listen bitch, after what I’ve been through with you in the past two years, if you think submitting sixty-million impossible tasks to me in the last week or two before I go on maternity leave is going to result in me doing ANYTHING about ANY of them, well, you just keep on believin’.
Fuck you.
Would the company potentially buy you an under the desk space heater? My hands would freeze as well until I got one, it makes a difference! 
Busybody & minion are now complaining about the amount we spent on buying breakfast for our biggest referring department. Apparently our spending is “extravagant and unnecessary.” Seriously? Buying 20 people breakfast sandwiches, fresh coffee and OJ is “extravagant?”
I suppose it could seem so, given that the “treat” you purchased for them last was essentially cheap bagels (cut bread-sliced, so you only purchased about 1/2 bagel per person) with no cream cheese, accompanied by water.
Yeah, sorry, but if we expect to keep getting referrals from these people you gotta treat them nicer than that. Especially if you drag them into a meeting the second they walk in the door at 7:30 a.m.
Yeah, my company only buys breakfast for board members.
Coworker: You keep adding an address wrong. There is NO SUCH ADDRESS. The Post Office keeps sending mail back saying “No Such Address”. I looked at Google maps - know what? Where that address would be is in the middle of a railyard. So I call the other party and she was very clear with the address - it’s on (say) Johnson, not Jones Ave. I look at the county property information online - yup, no Jones Ave, but there it is on Johnson Ave. Look, he’s even the property owner. When I’m talking to the party, I go over landmarks to even further confirm the Johnson Ave, not Jones Ave.
So, I let you know I corrected the address and that you need to inform the brownies before they ((AGAIN)) try to serve him in the middle of a railyard, rather than at his actual home two miles away. “Are you sure? I don’t think that’s right, I never heard of Johnson Ave”. I don’t care if you’ve never heard of it, it’s where the person is. Moron.
