…you know that one where the office worker goes insane & kills a couple of her coworkers…

My current gripe is the fact that Chatty does not know how to reset either the postal or copy machine. It’s really not that difficult. All you have to do is push a button, honestly, probably simpler than actually feeding the mail or the documents to copy. Yesterday, I step up to the postal machine & feed in a piece of mail that was only 41¢. Well, because Chatty was in too big of a hurry to go check the obituaries (I kid you not, she checks them everyday & broadcasts to everyone about who died), she had not reset the postal machine & when I ran it through, it came out with 58¢. Then today, I go to the copy machine with my stack to copy & I throw my first thing in there & luckily I looked down & see that it was set for three copies. & who was just there copying – good ol’ Chatty! I’m not even kidding but I reset any machine I use – postal, copy & fax. It’s part of my regime. It just really irritates me that she can’t do the simplest things. & now she is has been talking about when she’s gonna retire, when her husband’s surgery is gonna be, the surgery procedure of her husband, putting her mother in a home, a small town in Arizona, etc.

Another gripe would be Rhino. Please tell me why it is that men are such big frickin’ babies. They have a sniffle & it’s the end of the world – “Oh my God, its cancer!” “Like Hell it is! Blow your nose, get over it & do your work!” He had to leave today (which meant I had to contact all his appointments that he had this afternoon [a fully packed afternoon]). StickBoss is hardly ever sick & when she is, she works through it. I think out of the five years I’ve been here, I’ve had to call & reschedule appointments for her maybe four times…I actually think it may have only been three times. I just don’t understand. Then I bet you anything that tomorrow he will come in & bitch about being so busy & that I should have done this & done that – although he doesn’t like me signing letters for him “because I sign like a girl”. *Rolls eyes* Oh, & then he’ll start in about how we didn’t go over clients – “Look at the Client List! I update it everyday. You wanna know what is happening with a case, it’s right there!”

Finally, everyone’s personal favorite – Azon. I’ve been having issues with my new contacts & I’m going back to the eye doctor (for the third time in about two weeks) & I have to let her know because she answers the phones. Well, then she gives me this whole big spiel about the contacts she uses & that I would be happier going this route & blah, blah, blah. Then when I arrive back from my lunch (where I ate WAY too much food), there is a message in my inbox – “plz call ‘Joe Blow’ at *.” That’s it, no other information. I have never heard of Joe Blow before so I have to email her & ask her if it was someone that was asking directly for me (cuz I work directly with some financial institutes) or if he was calling for an appointment (if so, with StickBoss or Rhino). She then tells me that she thought it was an appointment with Rhino. Um, when taking a phone message get all the info. & when I actually did call this guy back, he wasn’t calling to make an appointment. He was just calling to talk to Rhino over the phone. She doesn’t get all the info & that’s kinda important when you are in charge of answering the phones.

If I had a “Get Outta Jail Free” card after murdering one person – I don’t know which one of these three I would “take care of”.

Oh, now I have Ronda arguing with Karen & Chatty about health drugs/vitamins. I may just pull a Milton & “burn the building down”. These ladies are for sure going to be the death of me! Help me! Please help me! Job searching is beginning to sound better & better!

“They switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, & I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...”
