December 12th, 2005things that piss me off
When people are on the phone, but walk over to their office door, look out and call me an asshole.
Then, when said person gets off the phone, again comes to the fucking door and yells at me for initially answering the phone.
Lovely.
If you don’t want someone to answer the phone, SAY SO. Don’t just let the damn thing ring and expect me to read your mind through a wall and know you don’t want the phone answered.
Doesn’t that sound logical?

uhm… you’re gonna have to explain this a bit more…

It looks like you are fighting with the co-worker. If it comes to that, I’d gladly set her on fire for you.

Wendy… yeah, listen to Grampa.
Thanks dear. 🙂

i got that part but i didn’t understand the situation. plus there’s no need to set her on fire, just push her between the couch and the heater, you’ll be smelling the sweet sweet smell of justice soon enough.

I didn’t understand the situation either—the phone rang, she didn’t answer it (normally she does), so I did. I thought it was the same number of one of our designers who had called earlier, but it wasn’t. It was a guy who wanted to know about our products—so I told her to pick up.
Then she proceeded to call me an asshole—then when she got off the phone, yelled some more. It was fun.
No sweet smell of justice… she’s going to read this and kick my ass in the morning. Lovely.

I have a wonderful book entitled Mao Tse Tung on Guerilla Warfare.
I’ve always loved that book.
