    I once witnessed someone scratch their nuts and then grab a handful of peanuts from the community peanut bag. I don't eat community peanuts anymore.

    :rofl:

    like, scratching INSIDE the pants??? or outside?

    Asking for professionalism, courtesy, accuracy and the like - my goodness, so much to ask! Damn straight I'm going to judge someone with a poor work ethic.

    I'm not lowering my standards because someone else does. That applies not only to the work environment either.

    Damn straight sister!
    Just because I'm generally a nice person does not mean that you can take advantage of me or treat me with disrespect. I'm sick of it and will call someone out for being a shithead.
    I have little tolerance for self-absorbed people.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Inside ... granted this was in a construction jobsite trailer, but still ... Some gruff concrete superintendent who I actually don't think he was self-conscious about what he was doing as he was having a conversation with someone when he committed the crime.

    fidgety is a good word.

    I wouldn't last 10 minutes in an office environment.

    I just know I wouldn't.
    I choose to drive a 53 foot semi, loaded with hazmat, through the streets of Chicago. I would rather do what nobody in their right mind......would ever think of doing..

    Than work in an office environment.

    An office is typically as staid or laid-back (or somewhere in-between) as the people make it.

    Where I am, most wear jeans or dress casually...am definitely not tied to my desk - fortunately for my back! - have a nice large window in my office, and overall work with some really good folks. And the owners of the company take great care of their employees - healthy bonuses, monthly birthday lunches, early closings, etc.

    I actually love it here, not to mention the five-minute commute.

    my dad was miserable in his job for 40 years....in an office.....so I always told myself I wouldn't do that........but I just kinda fell into through having other types of jobs in the same company......I've been a desk jockey now since 2000. And yeah, I'd rather be doing something else. I don't know how many people actually ASPIRE to working in an office! LOL

    I guess it's not all bad. I just happened to mention in passing I felt like having a Crown (Royal) and coke.....to which my boss replied...."well, if you have a bit of a cold tomorrow....cool with me".

    A lot of you are pretty judgmental towards your co-workers.

    I would LOVE to hear your co-workers opinions towards YOU.

    Haha

    Especially a few of you..
    Who have all the answers, to all the questions, who are Gods gift to the World. That the rest of us, who crawled out from under our rocks, just yesterday, thank the dear Lord for putting you on this planet.
    Hell if it wasn't for some of you, and the fact that the rest of us here have you, to lead us through life....I don't now how I/we could possibly survive on this planet without YOU!

    Hahahaha



    you piss on the seat in the stall because you refuse to stand at the urinal AND refuse to lift the seat....don't you?

    I stand on my secretaries desk....
    Call her a weaning old hound dog...
    Drop my pants, urinate on her desk...
    Then tell her to go get me some coffee......

    Is this frowned upon?

    Although not in an Office per say ,the Famous job site Port-o-let bathroom has some of the finest hand drawn art,pornagraphy and cultural learnings on its walls of any work place.
    I seriously thought of taking pictures of this beautiful art and making a coffee table book.
    You have never seen genitalia drawn so accurately.Always some good rascist quips written to make one laugh . Nothing is quite as special as a quick stop into one of them on a hot July day here in South Florida when the pump truck is a week over do and large crews are all sharing one box.Mmmmmmm.Unless it's an emergency you don't want to enter these boxes from hell.

    Not really in an office setting, but the guys operating the bull dozers will key up their radio mic during a 30 second Jim hendrix solo and tie up the radio for at least 30 seconds. That drives me crazy because if someone actually needed help or was hurt during that time, we would have to wait for that douche bag let go of the mic. It's actually very dangerous to be doing shit like that. I sent a guy home for the day after he did it 3 times by lunch.

    I dislike sales people for the most part. To the people here who are sales I am of course not talking about you. There are many very cool sales people, just not that I work with. The ones I work with I find extremely wasteful with money in particular (which effects my bonus) and condescending as well. Our sales department in this specific office scaled back after over hiring for a couple of years. My development team moved into an area they used to occupy as it was a better spot. While most of us were in a meeting one of the leftover sales managers was going through our desk drawers looking for something he said was left behind by one of the people who left. The office manager was in tow telling him he couldn't do that but of course it didnt stop him. He couldn't remember where the person sat and thought that gave him permission to invade our space.
