Babysitting Adults

By
I don't think I will ever understand how some people operate in an office environment. I am currently working on a project to design a new web based tracking system. I'm not leading this project because I am the most qualified designer or hold the greatest understanding of the business requirement, but because I have been successful in stopping two stubborn people from constantly fighting. One has a language barrier that makes it difficult for her to communicate exactly what she is thinking and the other has fewer patience than drunk at last call. Both ladies have poor people skills and tend to constantly talk over each other to get their point across, even when they are both wrong.

The only good thing is that I get free food out of the deal.

    Only if you would like to see Skeletor covered in mud. Yes one of them looks like Skeletor. No I am not joking, she scares me.

    p.s. Yes you do need to read Vonnegut, I suggest Mother Night to start.

To the whiney lady at the bar last week.

OK I get it; you’ve been waiting to place your order. I know that I have been helping the cocktail servers, dinner servers and the manager, ignoring you in the process. I apologize that I helped the person closest to me after making 15 drinks for a table in the restaurant, I was not aware that you arrived before he did. I understand that the other bartender has ignored you as well because he is stuck at the other end of the bar where 10 other people are shouting at him. I’m sorry it has taken me 5 minutes to get to you, even though the first thing out of your cake hole was “I’ve been waiting for 15 minutes and you helped that other….yadda yadda…” But…..if you are going to bitch and moan about me being busy and wasting your time on your friends birthday when it’s your turn to buy rounds, you had better make damn sure that you know what you want to when I ask. I even apologized to you while sliding that square paper napkin in that magical spinning fashion to rest just below your seco

I never understood ‘Business Casual’

By
Let me start out by stating that I hate, hate, hate business and business casual dress. I feel uncomfortable, stuffy and self conscious all day long. There are some people who tend to do well in slacks and a button down shirt. For example, FCJ seems to be very comfortable in the monkey suit that he has to wear to the office and if I remember correctly has been known to wear a similar costume when not in the office. Others like Captn. Punc. have only to don dress pants or slacks (I still don’t know the difference) during special events that require him to do so (i.e. he was told to do so). I believe the last time he had to wear them was during his wedding and I strongly suspect he had on jeans underneath. As for myself, the first thing I do when I get home is go change into something more to my liking, usually used-to-be blue jeans or lounge pants if I am not planning on going out again. If biblioWife isn’t near the path from the front door to my closet, she doesn’t get a kiss unt
