I have to write 700 words about the results of one of our local awards categories and how they differ from last year. Except they are all exactly the same as last year aside from one runner-up. Filler, here I come.

Marcus, the antisocial graphic design dude, and myself get along pretty well. We have random whacko conversations in which we joust and take turns at either grossing out or shocking each other into the inability for retort (he usually wins, he's got a strange mind).

He also tends to put calls on speaker phone while he's working.

These two do not mix... we got on the topic of my parents euthanizing the family dog, and he was in the middle of saying something along the lines of, "Well, tell your parents that when they get old, they have to be euthanized too-" when the lady he was putting me in touch with picks up and instead of saying hello, just listens. She knows Marcus so we all got a good laugh, but wtf, have a little common curtesy.

How, exactly, do you keep track?

If I find something I like that fits well and is made well, I buy multiples. I have four of one of my favorite shirts.

I'm not the only woman who does this

In Word when you are tracking changes and type "4th" or something and it converts the letters to superscript automatically, it tracks that change. I don't know why that annoys me but it happens to me almost every day.

when two people in my office decide to play the office snitch role and start taking notes on what everyone else is doing, and lets it be known that they are doing it, and then a few hours later both of them are sleeping at their desk (for about 3 hours).

guess what fuckers, EVERYTIME YOU GO TO SLEEP I TAKE PICTURES OF YOU SLEEPING AT WORK HAHAHAHAHAHA

I know the boss will be less happy with you sleeping than he will be with me doing homework at work. Especially since he said I could.

HAHAHAHA.

Female co-workers that decide to have lengthy conversations near your office, but do not include you in them because you aren't a female even though you can recite the gossip word for word.

HOLY SHIT YES

Motherfucker, if I wanted you to see my screen, I'd call you over and show you shit. Oh, wait...I already do.

Screen lurkers are right up there with peripheral passive-agressive pansies: the ones who stand just barely in my peripheral vision (I'm at a front desk, and there's a good 270* of places for people to come and stand), won't say anything, stare me down, and are uncooperative as hell when I try to help them.
"Ma'am, can I help you?"
"ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...Uhm...I, uh....ummmmm...is there a courtesy phone?"
"yes, ma-"
"And I wanna do long distance"
"Then, no maam, there's not one available - it's local only"
And then she sits and stares for a few more moments.

Solicitors. We get a few of these each month, random people just busting in trying to sell us coupons or wooden roses or what have you. No one here has ever bought anything from any of them.

People who are more interested in being social than actually getting their shit done.

People who change plans for the whole office without consulting anyone.

why do you and your coworkers care so much? as long as they come to work wearing clothes that are clean and appropriate for their job, then who cares if they wore the same thing recently? unless you work at a fashion company or something....

it's not wearing it recently

it's wearing the same thing, exactly, for weeks at a time. and they know it's the same thing because he's spilled things on it before and continued wearing it for days on end.

And you couldn't think of anything to e-mail your management about? Sending management an e-mail at 7:00 a.m. is the electronic equivalent of saying "HAY LOOK AT ME I'M HERE EARLY."

For real.
I can think of one person who touched my screen several times so I always made it a point to touch his whenever he had to show me something. Sometimes I would wipe my finger at that point where my nostril meets my face to get a little bit of oil on it while he was talking and then touch his screen in revenge.
