Yup!

Also, the customer needs to learn they are NOT always right.

You are rude and nasty on the phone, oops, your file got put under the 3 people who are pleasant to work with. No, I can't help you do your work, if you can't do basic work, how do you expect to find a job.

Working with the people who are laid off due to outsourcing, gladly, 99.9% aren't rude, are in shock, do not have a CLUE about what to do next. I have no problem being nice and helpful.

But if you call in and demand that I tell you what you should do, I'm going to tell you to suck an egg and leave me alone.

Babies however are not paid employees. They however are very demanding masters.

However, vending is normally very well stocked. As in, so well that we now have 2 buttons for Cherry 7-Up so we do not run out.

Yes. Bosses that micromanage and harp on every little thing while doing nothing themselves drive me insane.

I'm salaried.....because I am an "account manager" blah blah blah. But in reality, its just an excuse to make me salaried so they don't have to pay me OT. They still require approval for most things and have the boss watching our every move, including running daily reports tracking the number of quotes/orders we do.

Also, if you have an incompetent person....make them carry their own weight or get rid of them. Nothing is quite as dishearteneing as being expected to do twice as much work as the next person just because they are incompetent. For the same pay. 1 slacker brings everyone down and when morale goes, here I go straight to byc.

Batty referring to the "

to all DHs"....yes pass one this way too....yesterday morning mine was ready for a divorce...today he offers to have my hair done for the formal military ball Sat. night and took my gown to the cleaners. what? Not divorce literally, just being a PITA in general.

I will smack yours if you smack mine.

Coworker just said "is fed ex and fed ex freight the same thing?"

Why, we all asked.....

"Because in the system, it says fed space ex. But then it says fed DASH ex freight".

OMG DEATH TO EVERYONE.
