mrC

[missioncontrol]

I need to find me a secret nap room 

4 more hours till I'm outa here. 

[NiN^_^NiN]

I only have 20 more mins at work then 40min drive home

i think i might just rent a xbox or ps2 and some games and just enjoy a weekend in as i've been sick (still am) this week and had tuesday and wednesday off and had a half day thursday.

I'm just gonna relax and enjoy myself for the weekend and get better with some games

now i have 17 mins left till i leave work yaaay 

[missioncontrol]

your not supposed to be sick on weekends.

that's what week days are for

[duffjr]

well like most days, i can technically not go to class and call it an extended weekend.  when you're unemployed, weekends are meaningless.

[duffjr]

test post.  is anyone having problems where the post successful page doesn't come up at all but your post still comes up?  i'm trying to figure out if my comp is f-ed.

[Bones]

According to the information I have, yes. Your computer is cactus.

[missioncontrol]

the boards seem to be running slow today I thought it was just my connection, I also noticed that my Yahoo messanger name was listed under my avatar as a clickable link but its gone now 

and yes my information also shows your computer as a cactus. perhaps you need to water it.

[SirPeale]

Woo hoo.  I get to go to my fabulous job, and spend it with a cleavland steamer.

Yup...some of you may remember my last posting about my annoying co-worker, he's still giving me tons of crap...most of it not to my face.  Rips me a new one up and down, but I don't hear about it.  I hear about it from my other co-worker, who says "jeeze...you should hear the crap he's saying about you now".

Got to the office yesterday, and I checked our voice mail.  We're supposed to check it often.  I hadn't yet, as I just arrived.  He said "did you check voice mail?" and I said "yeah, sure.  Interesting stuff."  He says "You know...don't you think I would have told you about anything you need to know?"  Jeeze...it's bad when you get crap about doing your job *correctly*.

[missioncontrol]

I'm off work and now at school....

I've got about 4 more hours of work and then hopefully off to the beach for possibly the weekend.

Was not at work today, had to go to St. Louis.  Stopped at 'the hill' section and got a bunch of Itialian groceries (cheese, sauce, sausage, bread etc).  Hitting the 'good' cheap stuff tonight - TEN HIGH!!

[pointdablame]

Oh thank god, work is almost over!!!!!


Although at one point, I had to fix 5 lanes in the space of an hour, and I think I pulled a muscle in my arm when I had to brute force one of the drive belts out of a jam

I hate bowling, bowlers, bowling alleys, and all bowling related paraphernalia.

[danny_galaga]

what are you talking about? it is clearly sunday. boy are you guys way behind the dateline 

[missioncontrol]

clearly the 's after it stands for the word was.   

[SirPeale]

Yep...should have stayed at home on Friday.

I've got the shop all to myself, which is usually pretty cool.  I know what needs to be done, and I'm doing pretty good, I thought.

Asshat (no, he's not a doctor, but he's still an asshat) comes in after some time on the road on repairs.  The conversation goes something like this:

Me: "Hey, you're back.  Been back long?"

Him: "What's that supposed to mean?"

"Um...nothing...just making conversation..."

"What the F is that supposed to mean?  I don't answer to you, I answer to the boss."

"Jeeze!  Why are you being so evasive?  I just asked if you'd been back long."

(at this moment the phone rings)

"I'm not being evasive, it's not any of your f'ing business."

(he goes to answer, and picks up)

"Christ, I'm sorry, I'm just making conversation."

"WILL YOU SHUT THE F UP?  I'M ON THE PHONE, YOU A******!"

Yeah...I can tell this working relationship is going places.

[missioncontrol]

pehaps you can report him for creating a hostile work environment. If you have it all well documented they'll have to do something about him.

[duffjr]

steal his stapler.

[missioncontrol]

that'll lurn him

[SirPeale]

This isn't the first such incident, and the boss *does* know about it.

He's not CONSTANTLY like this, but it's hard to know what'll set him off.

[Bones]

No person should have to put up with this. Being unhappy in work is unhealthy, it infects your entire life. The only thing you can really do is punch him in the eye.

Serious, tell him you have had enough and drag his sorry ass outside and sort the problem. You will either get killed, get fired or gain respect.

The alternative is you can drop a powered monitor on his head when nobody is looking.

Well, I'm not about to punch him.  A former Marine, he's still sporting most of the muscle from his service days.  And I have *no* fighting experience (and really don't want any).

He did apologize for it afterwards, though I'm thinking the action was more motivated by not getting fired than it was by actual sorrow.

Boss does know now.  I actually wasn't going to mention anything since we had a sit-down, but my other co-worker told him the story.

[Bones]

Well, I'm not about to punch him.  A former Marine, he's still sporting most of the muscle from his service days.  And I have *no* fighting experience (and really don't want any).

Fighting never helped anything.

yet you'd be amazed how effective proving you're CAPABLE of fighting can be.

He yells at you, tell him that the next time he attacks you like that for no good reason, you'll make sure that his ugly wife has to feed him for the next few months while he recovers.

The dig at the wife is to prove you're serious.  If he isn't married, just call him stupid.

[DrewKaree]

Carry a sap with ya.  Hide behind a doorway.  Call him in.  When he walks through the door, rap him silly.  When he wakes up, tell him he's lucky he didn't end up in the morgue, and to either shut his piehole or call you Mr or Sir when addressing you, and if you so much as see a smirk on his asshat face, you're gonna whack him again.

When he asks you another question that brings you out of the daze that was causing the above daydream, tell him you were dreaming about his wife.

That NEVER sets off pent-up-rage dudes.

Oh, and fighting stops guys from escalating a vendetta against you even further when you whip their ass.  Plus, it makes a whole lot of his friends respect you and end up becoming better friends of you than him.  Of course, you're not in high school anymore, but fighting damn sure DOES solve some things.  Well, WINNING the fight convincingly may have something to do with it also, but I can't be bothered with niggling details.

[SirPeale]

If he puts his hands on me, believe me I won't take it lying down.

[duffjr]

yea he'll choke you out in 5 seconds and then start wailing on you while he's holding you up.

[missioncontrol]

just remember no matter how big they are, one swift hard kick to the boys and they fall down in agony.

[Bones]

It's like only 11:00pm and I am stuffed. You guys are killing me.

[missioncontrol]

Bones, you need to start slacking more at work. There isn't hardly anything going on during that time and it gets boring while I'm working.

[ChadTower]

Peale should secretly start studying Jiu Jitsu.  Then, 4 years from now, he can tell dude that next time he mouths off, Peale is gonna select a limb and torque it right off his body.

[Bones]

Former Marine who doesn't like you thinking you're gay...

[mr.Curmudgeon]

Former Marine who doesn't like you thinking you're gay...

I just assume these violently macho guys are latent homosexuals, but I was joking anyhow. Even if he is latently homosexual, his reaction is bound to be the same.

In reality, I'd just calmly report everything he does to management, after warning him beforehand about the parameters of what is acceptable. I'd do this until he was either fired, or attacked me, at which point I'd report him to the police and file a lawsuit of some sort.

I love a good fight, but if I'm at work, I'm smart enough to NOT jeopardize my livelihood. Even if I could annihilate the guy, it's just not worth the potential loss in revenue.

I just stood down a dude in my office the other day. Insulted me six-ways of Sunday and I said, "Bob (not his name), this isn't grade school. If you talk to me like that again, I'm taking a trip down to HR."  He apologized, and hasn't mouthed off since, as I guess he needs the job.

This may not be as simple, in a small shop...but ultimately, every state has some sort of labor laws that are designed to protect people from harassment. If the job is worth fighting for, fight within the rules.


mrC

[ChadTower]

What management?  He works in a four person operation.

It's very easy to out a latent homosexual... just add a B.

mrC

exactly that's why you make sure to use the words "hostile work environment" in front of the boss. It makes them take action quick as not to end up in a lawsuit for knowing it's going on but not taking any action about it.

but like I said make sure you keep your own documentation of times and dates and events about the situations.

[ChadTower]

What management?

[missioncontrol]

or end up owning the company for the boss not taking the proper course of actions

[mr.Curmudgeon]

Another option, which is very risky, but has worked for me in the past is to subscribe to what I call the "Klingon theory" of socialization. I used to work in a manly-man shop, working on big machinery with a bunch of union guys (lifers). This one guy in particular used to rag on me constantly, and me being new, I just sheepishly played along, trying to play nice and friendly. This only seemed to make him more and more aggressive. One day, I decided to give him a taste of his own medicine. So when he finally mouths off to me, I jokingly retort, in my best nonchalant, ball-busting tone. Using much of the same old, tired sh!t he'd throw at everyone else.

He LOVED me after that, since it proved I was "manly" enough to hold my own against him, plus he got some sick kick out of it. And I never failed to hold back the tirades, although they were carefully framed in jest. It's not always easy to pull off, especially if you really don't like the guy (that can show through), so it's not for everyone.

That, or maybe the best option is to just stop trying to be nice and chatty with the guy. Interact with him as little as possible, don't avoid him...but just don't engage him.

[ChadTower]

i was motivated in high school.  college was like an expensive daycare center.  lunch break is 3 hours some days, you have a week to do an essay, 5 weeks in between tests, no hw, etc.  4.0 in HS, 2.0 in college.

[SirPeale]

The other three guys and I were talking about said ass the other day, and we came to more or less a conclusion: none of us like him.  He's wired...well...wrong.  I think the only reason that the boss keeps him around is that he does his job well.  He shows up when he's supposed to, on time without fail.  He sees something that needs to be done, he does it, no questions.

It's just his people skills that...well...need reinstalling.

Boss has had a talk with him a couple times now.  Things get better for a while, and inevitably fall back down.

Suck thing is that the job would be nearly *perfect* if it wasn't for this "little detail".

[DrewKaree]

It's just his people skills that...well...need reinstalling.

It's clear now.  Format his ass several times.  Give 'im a good F8-ing and reboot him in safe (to play with others) mode.

If that fails, a well-applied hammer to the problem area usually fixes all computer problems.  You may need a new one, but you certainly won't be having problems with that item anymore

[Harry Potter]

Format his ass several times.

Mrs Peale wouldn't approve. 

[DrewKaree]

I dunno....seems like Mrs Peale has to put up with plenty of his crap anyway, and now I bet she's getting more "lemme tell ya what happened at work today" stories.  It's just a never ending pile.

I'm gonna go with she'd let him format his ass

that was probably in your top 5 "should that even be a joke cause its so corny"

[Stingray]

Let me check... yeah, it's right under jokes about Seph's mom.

-S

[ChadTower]

Corny like the sheperd's pie thread.

[Sephroth57]

i was actually talkin about chads joke but you replied too quick =p, slacker

[DrewKaree]

There were only two guy there, the other guy was a divorced father who wished he was watching the Bears game.  He figured if he stayed with me he wouldn't look as gay...

Yeah, because two guys hanging out together at a doll show don't look gay at all.

-S

When I saw you and Seph at the doll show, I was gonna say the same thing.  Then I realized I wasn't part of a group, and DID look like a perv.  I did what any "don't wanna look like a perv" guy woulda done.

I walked over and joined the two gay-looking guys

[Harry Potter]

If I were him, I'd put Bosss7 in charge for a week, just to see how much damage he can do.

-S

Nice idea. I'd jam down the 'ban everyone' button for the entire week.

[missioncontrol]

Nice idea. I'd jam down the 'ban everyone' button for the entire week.

but then people may actually get some work done

[Stingray]

Not me, I'd just wander off elsewhere. I can be counter-productive under any conditions.

-S

[missioncontrol]

glad to see you got a contingency plan

[ChadTower]

This IS his contengency plan.  That's how nonproductive he is...

[Stingray]

I'll create a real contengency plan if it ever comes up and I happen to be awake at the time.

-S

[missioncontrol]

too much work to think of a contengency plan

[DrewKaree]

too much work to think of a contengency plan

He'll contingency in your mouth!

[Harry Potter]

so your saying that Thursday is your friday this week and that Tuesday is you Monday next week.

[Stingray]

An here's me having to wait for Friday to be Friday and Monday will still be Monday. This whole "no time travel" thing really sucks.

-S

[ChadTower]

We don't need Seph present to continue to tool on him, so we should be fine.

[missioncontrol]

An here's me having to wait for Friday to be Friday and Monday will still be Monday. This whole "no time travel" thing really sucks.

-S

It's not our fault you never got the hang of your dads Delorean

[ChadTower]

Hey, not many people had a dad with a Delorean.

Hell, around here, not many people had a dad.   

[Stingray]

An here's me having to wait for Friday to be Friday and Monday will still be Monday. This whole "no time travel" thing really sucks.

-S

He got a little pissy whenever I suggested shooting 1.21 gigawatts through it.

-S

[missioncontrol]

I don't see the problem in it...

Should have gotten a Mr. Fussion

[ChadTower]

Those are hard to get, being close to Xmas at all.

Hid dad did manage to slam his head on the toilet, though, so he is not entirely unDoc-like.

[Stingray]

I don't see the problem in it...

Should have gotten a Mr. Fussion

Well this was the 1980s. We were supposed to be able to buy plutonium in any corner market by then.


-S

[ChadTower]

You could, it was hidden in every third can of Jolt.

[Harry Potter]

you guys suck, its not friday in real life, austrailia doesnt count.

Sad but true.

[missioncontrol]

Jolt Cola and Pop Rocks 

[Stingray]

They're thieves! They're thieves! They're filthy little thieves! Where is it? Where is it? They stole it from us, our precious. Curse them! WE hates them! it's ours it is, and we wants it! We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious. They stole it from us. Sneaky little hobbitses. Wicked, tricksy, false!

So bright... so beautiful... our precious.

He wants the precious. Always he is looking for it. And the precious is wanting to go back to him... But we mustn't let him have it.

Master tricks us.

Of course he did. I told you he was tricksy. I told you he was false.

Master is our friend... our friend.

Master betrayed us.

Filthy little hobbites. They stole it from us.

[duffjr]

na, it means a friday is approaching.  then i can jerk off until friday and cram ---my bottom--- off during the weekend.

[Stingray]

It's monday, but I only have to work today and tomorrow then I have the rest of the week off! I suspect that the same is true for a lot if the Americans on this board. Woo-Hoo! Five day weekend coming up!

-S

[Harry Potter]

So which american non-event are you celebrating this time?

[Stingray]

I'm celebrating five days off work. Others may tell you it's Thanksgiving. To me it will always be Beervemberfest.

-S

[Harry Potter]

As long as it's official. Have fun.

[Stingray]

Some drunk posting is in my near future.

-S

[Harry Potter]

 

I might join you on Friday.

[Stingray]

Since I will be off work, the actual holiday will be over and I'll be at home with nothing to do but drink beer and eat leftovers, I look forward to it.

-S

[ChadTower]

I have thursday off and took a vacation day friday.  Alas, I think it's going to be me working on the house all day.

[Stingray]

Not that I don't have stuff to do around the house, but I plan to take the Office Space approach to friday. I'm doing nothing, and I hope it's everything I expect it to be.

-S

[AC.]

The wife and I will be travelling during Thanksgiving.  Visiting all the necessary relatives.  Will probably log.....ungh....700 miles or so.  There will be druken-ness, but, no posting.

[Bones]

I have been on holidays over 1 week and have another 2 weeks to go. The names given to days currently have no meaning.

[Stingray]

The names given to days currently have no meaning.

Starting in about an hour & a half, I'll be under the same lovely spell.

-S

[Sephroth57]

i want one of those spells...

[Stingray]

I guess I'm spoiled after working at a school for so long. I assumed pretty much everyone gets wed, thurs, fri off this week. Am I the only one? Gosh I hope so.

-S

[Sephroth57]

[missioncontrol]
