I was the annoying one today (and every other day!). I was singing along to the first four Give 'Em the Boot comps, the first two Punk-O-Rama comps, and a street punk comp. sometimes it's reggae, ska, Hank III, Wayne Hancock, Six Feet Under, or Acid Bath. I like to diversify my days to confuse the people around me. going from Acid Bath to Bad Manners is fun!
 
One of my sometimes-coworkers likes to sing along to the radio, but it seems he only knows the last word out of every 2 or 3 lines.

Even then he doesn't always get them right.

:cross:
 
The guy that comes into the office and takes a cup of coffee before it is finished brewing-usually when the pot is about a third full-and ruins the rest of the pot of coffee.

*******.

Punk-O-Rama 3 & 4 were great.

yeah, that would be me, because it's the best part of the pot

full disclosure: I'm the only one drinking the coffee

Video review of you sinking a cellared Mikes Raspberry and singing Code Blue. Do it.

I am the guy that fills a coffee cup when the machine starts then puts the pot in place.

I do that too. I call it first runnings.

I used to work with lady that liked to put half a pack of coffee in the machine with the regular amount of water. Ugh. Not only do you have terrible coffee, you also have these little folded over half packs of coffee that gather in a drawer.
 
I'd kick you all out of the office. When I make a pot of coffee, I plan on every cup tasting the same, not the first cup strong and the rest watered down. When you take the "first runnings" you are messing with the order of the universe.

Furreal. I just yelled at a dude for that.

At my office, some toolbag took an entire stick of my butter. I used it on Monday to butter some toast and set it on my carton of eggs in the fridge. Yesterday, gone. Like nothing in the garbage either. Why go to the store when you can just steal from your coworkers? Someone is gonna get a throat punch.:mad:
 
Well, I'm usually so twitchy after the first runnings I can't taste the rest of the pot. Plus I hate my coworkers so eff em. There wouldn't be coffee if I didn't make it. :cheers:
 
My boss asked me to design a form and a system for capturing new client information in one place. I did it, I submitted it, it was accepted, and worked beautifully while I was running it. He refuses to use the system correctly and taught our new employee how to use it wrong, and now I am expected to go back and fix a year of mistakes because he constantly changes his mind about how he wants the information presented.

I hate him with a burning fire.

Duct tape a dead fish under his desk. Without his (or anyone else's knowledge of course).

Unfortunately that is a bad idea. You will end up being called into his office more and more often as the smell gets worse. I had a coworker several years ago whose office smelled of urine. There was a fan under the desk aimed straight up her skirt. For some reason she always needed help on the days that the room smelled worse.

That will be the most foul thing I read today. *shudder*

We have employees here that possess less than optimal aim at the toilet. By that I mean the urinal and the bowl. Disgusting. The cleaning people must think we're total pigs.
 
Sorry to start your day off rough. Imagine how I felt. Have at least one lady at my current job whose office is so disgusting that after I help her fix her computer or even pass by it I feel the need to go into the bathroom to wash my hands. I don't know how some people can stand themselves.
 
Hate when my boss comes in my office and farts. I mean, I get it.. but when I can taste the kimchi you ate last night? GTFO

We have one guy that I know with 100% confidence doesn't wash his hands.

I avoid him but also I sanitize everything I get from him if we interact. Funny thing is I know his boss is a major germophobe but I don't think the boss is aware of the situation.
 
One of my coworkers wanted to see my vacation pics from my Alaska trip last month, so I pulled them up on my phone and handed it to her. I made sure watch over her shoulder so... well... so she wouldn't keep swiping left and go too far.

After swiping through 200+ pictures, she came to the end of the vacation photos. "Okay, that's all of them," I told her.

But she kept. Swiping. Left. :mad:

Finally, I had to warn her, "woman, you keep swiping left, you're going to end up seeing something you can't unsee." :eek:

Piss poor phone etiquette....
