I am working on a new project with a woman who just started about a month ago. She asks me for help when she needs it, which is understandable and not a big deal. When I was new I leaned on the senior person on my project, we all help each other for the most part.

So yesterday she asked what to write when sending an email about a certain type of deduction that was taken that we were trying to collect on. We have a form letter and I printed it and gave it to her. I told her to change the wording slightly. She sent the email and uploaded it to our database.

Our boss reviewed her work because she is new, and came in to talk to her because instead of putting the customers name and address she put ABC Company 123 Main St Anywhere USA 12345. When my boss told her she needed to change this she shot back "AMBER DIDN'T TELL ME TO!".

Unless your boss is a complete moron, that just makes her look worse.

Woman I work with, in her 50s with a kid on the way to college, uses the term lit at least every other sentence.

Took me a few seconds to realize you weren't talking about lit as in English lit, etc.

This is the bathroom at my office. Could someone with some insight into the yambag mindset explain why every dude in the office (except me) takes dumps in Stall 2 as opposed to Stall 1?

Stall 1 is technically a handicapped stall but nobody in the office is handicapped nor do we often have clients who would need it.

I'd rather be that guy than the guy who's sharting out wet coffee dumps two inches from someone else at the urinal.

Almost all people when given a choice will choose something other than the capper stall.

Handicap all day / every day.

If there's a problem somehow just apologize and finish up quickly.

The guy who sits next to me at work is always talking about his dogs. He also uses his phone to talk TO his dogs. He is often trying to show us webcam of his dogs sitting in his living room. The other day he interrupted a conversation to randomly say something about how dangerous meercats are.

Last week he asked me I watched college football. I replied "No, I can't really get into it". And he proceeded to tell me about some college football games he watched over the weekend.

I have a co-worker who is in charge of the punchlist (quality control).
I asked her if she saw Brad from XYZ yesterday? He was supposed to check in with her to look at an issue on the list, and I had told her beforehand to expect him.
She snaps back “I have absolutely no idea”. I mean it’s pretty much a yes or no question on whether she saw Brad. I found the “I have absolutely no idea” response to a question about if she saw someone as irritating and reminded me of this thread.

How did you respond to that? I would have described him: in his thirties, brown hair, about yay tall, answers to brad...

I'm not as smooth as you Johnny because that would be better than my "You don't know if you saw him?" reply.

It wasn't really thread worthy at that point (and probably still isn't), but she tipped over the edge when she repeated even louder "I have absolutely no idea" like I didn't hear her the first time.

Anyway, thanks for letting me vent.
