Dear Mr. Supervisor person:

Perhaps you are having difficulties finding the Zimmerman file because you are looking in the "F" filing cabinet.  I'd try "Z" if I were you, but it's just a suggestion.

it's not like we could actually TELL the managers what idiots they are being

Unfortunately. It would solve a lot of problems if we could.

it's so DAMN tempting some times!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-16 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
but they tend not to like it when you point out their foibles

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-07-16 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Especially on the desk message board.

*snerK8 I can see how that would be a problem

Especially when he says stuff on there that's just asking to be replied to.

We don't have one of those. I can picture sitting on my hands to prevent myself from putting some snide remark up

I actually had to close my laptop the other day. Those things are dangerous...

Snide remarks- the slippery slope that always leads to trouble

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-07-17 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Especially when they're just completely asking for it.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-17 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
they really should know better!

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-07-17 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
They're probably testing us.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-17 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
oooh, are they really that cunning?

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
it is vastly more likely that they just really are stupid, isn't it?

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep.

I just discovered they're not the only ones I have to look out for on the message board, too. One of my co-workers now owes me for the doctor visit I'm going to require in order to remove this piece of licorice from my sinuses. Unfortunately, I can't tell him this, because it would not be considered "professional".

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
oh no. I shudder to think of the story behind that!

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Work message boards should not have to have a "no food or drink should be consumed while reading" warning, that's all I'm going to say.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* Very wise. The *sporfle* chances are much lower then

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course, I should also probably know by now not to read them at home while eating and drinking, because the reading of them often involves a great deal of headdesk, facepalm, and righteous indignation, so choking, among other things, is almost inevitable.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-07-18 12:32 pm (UTC)(link)
but, it's probably a better idea to read them in private where you can do all that without the stares
