One side, a moron; the other, an asshole

[vicarz]

All day I hear the microsoft animated character whooshing on one side of me. From the other, the man who fought for the window view and closes the blinds each and every day - his blackberry rings 3 times every time he receives an email (about every 3-5 minutes on average). Damn cubicle walls.

Is it the Microsoft Wizard, Paper clip or Doggie?

I feel your pain. I've got a heavy sigher to my right and a one finger typer to my left. My night sounds like.. *SIIIIGHHHH* *TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP* And I mean this guy taps the keys like he's trying to push them through the keyboard.Sometimes I think about using my letter opener in naughty ways.

I'm cool with the sigh guy. Sigh...not another day, not another day...I just can't take it...sigh...not another day...

Nice, but I already have a lava lamp and ... I worry that I goof off too much or am too inconsistent a producer to work in a "real office." Plus, I'm more than a little vested.

Is this where I ask you which side you are on?

blargh. i'm a cube wall away from this guy who talks to himself as he works. you know, guides himself through clicking on icons, says "okay!" every time he makes a selection, and whistles in the most annoyingly tuneless manner possible.

but he's a nice guy and he wears cool ties, so i can't hate him *too* much ;)

tImE to Go on VaCaTIon

my boss interrupted a redesignation process (rushed, no less, with repeated calls put in to Dep of State) because her daughter's purse, wallet, & shoes were stolen (along with her fake i.d.) from a bar.

i still don't get how the shoes were stolen.

i'm also confused on why my boss would help her daughter cancel credit cards, etc, when her kid was illegally parked in a bar drinking her face off on a fake I.D.

so glad i'm going away for a week. and then returning for one day, and then going away for another week to a conference.

Dood - because we all drunk in bars with fake IDs, actually we went to bars that let us drink underage before the gestapo took over the legislature and lawmaking of this country creating a giant rift between behavioral realities and the enforced laws. I think that's good parenting, though there should be some discpline of the kid by the parent when all is said and done for being irresponsible.

If she took her shoes off she's a skank, of course.

she's not a skank. she's actually a good girl which is why her heart was broken when one of her ex-bfs broke up with her by changing his profile status from "in a relationship" to "single" on facebook.

Being morbidly amused is a condition of employment where I work. Pardon my laughter.

Would it be inappropriate to sell the daughter my license when we all go to dance performance tomorrow? I bet the price went up for such things. In my day and age i think we bought 'em for 25 bucks. I'm sure, during intermission, I can probably hiss something, like, "100 bucks" at her and she'll bite. That is, if she's got access to her bank account by friday.

The legal consequences of pretending to be someone else (using an ID with someone else's name) are far greater than for using an altered ID that has your actual name on it.

I believe the person supplying such can be prosecuted as well. As much as i think the driniking age should be 12, the law has gotten unreasonably harsh in this area and you might want to scan the consequences of your role before potentially incurring that type of legal liability.

KIDDING, Jose. there's no way. at some point, in my current office, I will probably need a security clearance. The way the law is moving... everyone in my field will need one.

also, i've been put on several folk's applications for security clearance (i've been listed as a contact point for at least three friends requiring clearances) in addition to having already supplied a clearance to a former neighbor so technically speaking, my name would come up in a hit within somebody's database.

but, interesting.
