It would be nice to meet you someday Chadwick, but if we do, is it okay if I ask you to refrain from picking your butt in front of me? Thank you.

also it is a good idea to never truly trust anyone you work with. this applies with other jobs besides office jobs. same with having sex with a co-worker. not a very smart idea at all. what you do is get fired or quit then you can have sex with that person who is still working there.

finger up the nostrils, yes/no? digging @ one's groin area, yes/no?

That's a big NO on both points. Thanks for checking. :thumbup:

Someone in my office just kicked their door and threw a tantrum because the AA batteries in their mouse died. then they stormed out to the store...
I hope the chord is just loose!

I truly trust 3 out of 30+ people in my office. I figure that's actually pretty good in the scheme of things!

Definitely not! :nono: I don't know what it is, but being in HR does something bad to people - it's like a cult or something! :fp:

actually...when you think about it...pretty sure that rule applies here as well. :fp:
As far as I've been able to tell in my life so far, only a relatively small percentage of people aren't selfish dickheads when it comes right down to the nitty gritty. Although I think it's probably better here than most offices, because here people aren't competing with you for money or advancement/power, the two things that bring out the worst in people.

Yo you office worker people have been busy posting. I am NOT in my office today, HALLELUJAH, due to Easter long weekend! HALLELUJAH again!! & I am now feeling a bit sane after the last 3 weeks of craziness.
Oh & I work in one of those half wall cubicle things kind of like the pic above although about double the size of that. &&& I trust about 2 people in my office out of 50 or so that I know.
Anyway, back to NOT being in an office environment for 4 days!!

when working in cubicles, keep in mind that there is another person on the other side of that thin fabric wall, in fact that person is only about a foot away from you and every sound you make is heard, every move you make is felt by that other person as if you were talking in their ear. Oh and smells too.

I've never understood this. In my entire life I've never burned a bag of popcorn before, how much of an idiot do you have to be to do this? :?

Isn't there a popcorn button on most microwaves now, anyway?
sometimes...
part of the problem is different microwaves have different power out puts. if you have a lower power microwave at home and it takes 3.5 minutes to do a bag, and then you make the same bag in the office machine that is a higher wattage...and your habit is 3.5, you may set it for 3.5 even if it only needs 2.5 resulting in burnage

Human Resources, the ass hats who go through resumes and try to hire people they think will work best in your company.

Great advice. I "bank" days I stay late or when I work through lunch, and then leave early on other days. All under the table, of course.

People need to use their heads...
...or the popcorn button.
that's the key.
