Things about your co-workers that annoy you

[Mike_kever_kombi]

The mens room here is designed to be used by 1 person at a time. There is a toilet & right next to it there is a urinal. No divider. If you were unfortunate enough to be sitting on the toilet while someone was standing at the urinal, your face would be right about d!ck level & only about 12-16 inches away. It's obviously not intended to be used by more than 1 person at a time.

Now there really shouldn't be any debate about what you do with each device. A urinal is meant to be used to pee standing up; the toilet to be used for defecation & urinating whilst sitting down. If there were no urinal, then the toilet would also be used to pee standing up, but this is not the case.

Enter the inconsiderate a$$hole, who pees while standing up, into the toilet, dribbling urine onto the seat; with the urinal only a step away. I'd like to stake him down & pee on him.
End rant. GF.

You should poop in the urinal right before you leave for the day. Leave a note saying you wanted to use toilet, but there was pee all over the seat.

Obviously, don't sign the note.

Never, ever work for free.

I made that mistake. I chased the threads on over 2,000 hot dip galvanized 1/4" bolts by hand, on my own time. office boss thought I could just put them in the threader. I explained to him why I wouldn't and then showed him why I wouldn't. I then told him that I'd rather come in on my time off and do them by hand (the right way) than get paid to flocc them up in the threader. he said, "You know, *Billy*, too many people come up with excuses why they can't do something and not enough reasons why they can do something." I had to tell him again that I would rather come in on my time off than mess them up in the threader. he still didn't get it. he was a true E.I.

The building I work at houses about half a dozen separate companies. We all share a common set of bathrooms. Someone at one of these companies somehow manages on about a daily basis to get a few drops of urine on TOP of the urinal. WTF is that about??? I mean, HOW do you make that happen on a daily basis without explicitly trying to do so?

Was enjoying a little too much adult entertainment on the computer and aim was difficult? Or was really enthusiastic about getting those last couple drops off?

My coworker ranting about some San Antonio-based charity group that made the news recently for raising over a million dollars for starving children in Africa:

Her: "Oh yeah, that's great and all, but what about the MILLIONS of starving children right here in San Antonio?"

Me: "I don't think there are millions are starving kids in the city of San Antonio...."

Her: "Why not?"

Me: "Forget it. You're probably right."




Quick googlery:
San Antonio population: ~1.4 million
% under 18: ~27% (or ~378,000)
% below the poverty level: ~20%

Math strikes again!

At my workplace somebody took a huge shīt in the middle of the hallway and we found it last night.
I work in the medical area of a university. Let that sink in for a moment

I used to work at a nearby VA Hosp.. It was originally also a mental institution. Still have a lot of patients who need to be in lock down. Can't work in some areas unless you don't mind your tools walking and then those tools might become weapons. Many of the buildings are connected by tunnel. Anyway some of the patients, when they feel the need, just drop a dookie in the tunnel.
I work for a different branch of the federal gov't now. Ten hour days no set lunch break. You take it when you can. Unless there's an emergency.

I have one other guy on my team on second shift. He's constantly checking to see what I'm doing, in an effort to gauge how busy I am. If I don't look busy enough to him, he will invent some question or issue that requires my attention, so I can be busy enough to suit him.

I was the "lead" guy in a small area of a big plant, had two guys under me. One of the guys had a very laborious position and was a lazy ass. I did my best to make sure he got at least the bare minimum to cover the position everyday. He was a friend before I was his leader, I knew his wife didn't want to see her and their kids suffer. He finally came around and started doing his job.

Well turns out that the guy that does his job on the opposite shift has an issue with him. Starts halving his work load everyday and leaving it for my shift. My guy complains to me so I document it daily for a few weeks and bring it to the area supervisor. His response? "That's just his way of sharing the workload". I nearly popped a roid on that one. My guy leaves work he's a lazy arse, this guy leaves work, it's perfectly acceptable. Laziness is truly in the eyes of the beholder.

Prolly has a little ****** and is getting it on his hands. See the beer gut post above.

My co-worker is so annoying... he just sits there reading HBT all day with short bursts of productiveness in-between to keep up the charade and the man off his back.

Dude just sits there and snickers all day, and types way more than is necessary for this job and drinks on lunch and... oh ****, that's me.

Face it... the night crew is never quite right.

ours gets less done in more working hours a day/night than day shift and never gets a talking to about it. yesterday two guys on days were going over a special trailer they were building and we all got in "trouble" for talking on the job. appearently their fancy cameras with the microphones only work from 5am to 4pm and employees sharing ideas on specific work they are doing together is a security issue. I think the microphones are a bluff. I've stated enough of my opinions loud enough that I should have had quite the verbal reprimand by now.

I used to work at an institution for mentally retarded. You don't want to know what some people will do with a beemer on the floor.

Ha! Last week, one of our night crew called out two hours after start of shift, after his wife and the cops called looking for him. He's been admitted somewhere. Tonight, we got a collect call from jail. Another night shifter calling out for a few days.

That's dedication, right there. Using your one phone call to call out of work! Poor guy couldn't even use sick time, due to the whole being in jail thing. Though I suppose if it were a DWI, that could count as sick.

 

[fredthecat]

people who are just clearly incompetent. when someone is incompetent i tend to call them out, this doesn't endear me to some people, but i'm talking about people who should know better, have been doing a job in a field for a long time and just should shape up or ship out.

Lol I'm night shift........and your right

1. I have a guy that does broccoli, shrimp, fish, Apple cider vinegar, you name it. Anything that smells horrible.

4. That's why Metallica isn't big anymore. You can only be pissed for so long.

 

[Zuljin]

Night shift gets cut a lot of slack because they're night shift. Complaints are met with, "You wanna work nights?"

 

[CreamyGoodness]

This is my point with Eminem. Mofo, fabric that costs less than $150 hasnt touched your balls for 10 years now... what in the name of all things pink and gently boinkable are you mad at now??

Hahaha. That's great. I don't understand it. I'd make all my money, then tell the world they could eat a dick, and buy an island somewhere.

 

[Zuljin]

YES, WE HAVE TRIED OTHER YEASTS! USE BREAD YEAST FOR JAOM!

So far, this is proving true.

Well that, and they sobered up. That's the kiss of death.

I'd be on the island 10 miles further offshore.

we've heard that one in our shop. I told my boss, "No, we just want them to work at night."
