  1. Next time they do it just tell them:
    “There’s no ‘I’ in team; but there’s a ‘you’ in cunt”.

    Then offer to sleep with the HR rep in order to dodge those “un-professional workplace conduct” charges.

  2. Ugh. This reminds me of people who hate their jobs and take it out on everyone else.

    If you hate your job THAT much quit and get a new one ffs.

  3. Cool PF – I actually just read it yesterday in a book by a former British soldier working as a security contractor in Iraq. Brit squaddies have the best grasp of profanity.

    And Good Morning to you Painey. – The pic at the Marine Corps War Dog memorial caused me to tear up a little. Rooooooooo!

    Bro Tim – you now have backup, at least until my next Av. change.
    Be careful out there. >: )

  4. I’m sure the OP’s boss is aware that Pissy is not pulling their share. Don’t worry….the EI line is calling for them.

  5. The problem is, someone can be pulling their weight and still be a streak of misery to work with, which pisses me off bigtime because it’s wholly unprofessional to treat your co workers disrespectfully in any circumstance. Assertiveness is one thing, disrespect is quite another.

  6. oh fair kitty…
    Because some men aren’t looking for anything logical, like money. They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

  7. Sometimes people are just pissed at their world and it shines through in everything they do.

  8. Peter Gibbons said it best….
    So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that’s on the worst day of my life.

  9. Why would the op gwt pissy at you, op? Maybe you’re bossy even though you’re not her/his boss….or. maybe you’re an annoying keener. Even those of us who take our jobs seriously and do well at them can hate a keener. I had one sit next to me for awhile and he drove me nuts. I got pissy all the time because he was an obsessive compulsive workaholic and his habits drove me & everyone else insane. If i needed his advice i would’ve asked.

  10. Actually, Z, I know the OP is of this and the situation and trust me: the pissy co workers is just that: pissy. For no good reason. Because they hate their job. They’ve stated this. I’ve heard it!

  11. Also: Z3, again — wtf’s up with all this gloom and doom these days? It’s very worrying, mister!

  12. PK, I was worried for me yesterday too….
    going absolutely ballistic at every little thing.
    I apologize to everyone I burned a hole through at the square and my co-workers who had to sit through me just pounding the shit outta my keyboard all day.

    trying to get back to a good place…
    understand though that it’s clawing tooth and nail out of the huge crater I’ve dug myself into.

  13. *ingests said cookie because it is, in this case, calorie free*
    can I get some digital milk to go with that?

    Yes, enough wallowing and self loathing…
    time to figure out what the hell I want out of life.

  14. such a tryst.
    you SURE you aren’t a couple?

    some crazy pantless times…
    something must have happened…..
