I mean seriously, what is all this stuff?
- The girl that sits in front of me at work has an impressively loud voice. My ipod at full volume can't even drown it out. Worse, when she's not on the phone with her husband or yelling across the room to another co-worker, she's talking to herself. "I got an e-mail. Oh it's from blah blah blah. They need to send me their..." Yesterday I loudly announced that I was drinking a V8 and read off the ingredients but she didn't catch on.
- Not that it matters one way or another, but I feel you should know that she looks like the Hobbit.
- I don't dislike all my co-workers. For example, one of them just gave me delicious pumpkin bread.
- but check out this e-mail chain:
From: [someone at hotel]
To: [someone in my office]
Good afternoon,
Can you let me know if this is the correct email address where I am sending DOR every day in order to get reimbursed for gift certificates.
Thank you.
then
From: [someone in my office]
To: [me]
Hi Bryton,
Will you please let this property know that they did send this email to the correct email.
Thank you.
Are you serious? So it's easier to send that e-mail to me than just hit reply and type "yes"?
Well I guess that's all.
i'm sad i didn't get the job in your department. then again, maybe it's for the best. i don't want you comparing me to a hobbit.
ReplyDeleteWe have a similar lady in our department...well, sits next to us & just has to throw her two cents in on every conversation...and I find the best way to overcome her...is to either simply ignore her...or to mock her value system...but in a charming way. You may already know this method though. Best of luck to you with your loud coworker. :)
ReplyDeleteI love it! I had that same sort of thing happen to me with a school counselor and an angry parent of a failure honors student applicant.
