This mornings Catch-All...
I'm plugging away on a massive report and look up to see this guy headed straight for my office.
He comes in and say "I was looking for something in my sent emails folder, sorted it by date, found it, then went back to look for it again a few minutes later and its gone. Do you know where it is?"
I'm in project management, he is in Sales. There are 23 other employees in the office. Why me?
Why me?
I ignore my coworkers stupid questions, eventually he asks someone else.

That's an easy one, you are being punished for being competent. Spend more time drooling on your keyboard and banging the mouse on your desk.
The thing is, I actually don't mind helping people with legit questions unrelated to my work. But this question just seemed totally F-ing stupid to me.
Like if I came into work barefooted, and the first person I saw, I said "hey I couldn't find my shoes this morning, do you know where they are?"
I came into work barefooted
not an uncommon occurrence in the Volunteer state, I'm presuming

Had a few people who get paid.. erm.. generously.. come to me yesterday to help them figure out how to remove a logo from an MSWord document. Sometimes I think it is a miracle that something in this place doesn't explode on a daily basis.
edit: As lunch time rolls around, it smells like it's ****ing Kimchi day in the office again..
"I'm sorry, I will not be making it into work today. I can't seem to find my clothes. I appreciate your concern, but figure if I can find my house they will be somewhere near there."
This note showed up a few days ago, in the bathroom, followed by a response today
The initial poster is way too concerned about a water bottle left In a bathroom. Seriously, you leave your water bottle in bathroom it is contaminated forever!
Chances are both are IT people, they are known to be a bit weird!

Sigh... I don't mind kimchi (actually love it and have it in the fridge), but it would have to have office wide approval before it could be kimchi day at the office.
the guy didn't like me and looked down on me for being an atheist. he then blamed me when his Christian Punk Rock son started claiming atheist and later agnostic.
HR is not a revenge tool! neither is becoming a boss!

Some people will find any excuse to roll in to work late...
...because he has heard rumors that we are both leaving within a year.
Would you invest in someone that you heard was leaving?
Usual issues here. Working ass off, supervisor taking all the credit.
Supervisor just walked into a conversation about pecan pie while we were working. Called us into his office and told us to cut the useless chatter. He doesn't want to hear talking unless it's about work. I hate this man.

Hah, only good thing about here. Supervisor walked in, said "sounds like you all are having a party" commenting on us making fun of a coworker for getting food all over himself at lunch today. Literally everywhere. Tie, shirt, pants, id badge, shoes. I would be surprised if he got any in his mouth.
I'd serve him a nice laxative laté.
Every now and then I find something on this site that makes me completely derp out and my boss just walks by saying, "That must be a funny drawing." and continues about his business. When he asks what I'm working on, I tell him either [nothing/level 5 of candy crush/facebook/dropping sick tweets bruh]. I found it's nice to keep a professional level of insincerity with some people, that way once in a while you can tell the most absurd truth and they'll just chuckle and move on.
That's a great idea.
There's nothing professional about this man. He's a moody whimsical unhappy man who takes pleasure in controlling people.
If anyone is looking to hire a project management type person, I'm on the market for a new job and have 10 years of experience in the nuclear field, been a lead technician for 5 years, have a bachelors degree in english so I can write, generally good guy unless you ask my boss

Despite the lack of knowledge about the cause, treatment is possiblepretty intense treatment, based on what Schröder told me. "The treatment consists of group therapy based on different techniques used by cognitive behavioral therapists," he explained. During the group sessions, which take place every other week, patients are taught how to disconnect the sounds from negative emotions.
"It's a lengthy process, people have to work at it for months," Schröder said. And that's necessary, because the brain is basically being reprogrammed. The behavior that reinforced itself over the years has to be completely disconnected.
Well crap. I will just go live by myself then. There are days when my stress is high that I can barely sit next to the GF when she is snacking. I always just listed it as my hyper sensitivity kicking in, cause those are the days when I hate socks, shoes, tight tshirts, armpit areas bunching up in my armpit, any weird cold breeze or area when laying down....yeah, i am weird.
<edit> LOL, should have read more of that article first - His team is exploring misophonia as a part of the spectrum of obsessive-compulsive disorders.
'Cause I have always wished I could stop just focusing on that one noise. And I might have one or two OCD behaviors.
