1. Not really idiots
Just gossipy children. The group I'm in is short on people (but hiring) so 2 from another group are going to help. They went to our group meeting Monday and proceeded to gather with a couple others at one of their cubes and talk about how boring it was and the mannerisms of everyone in attendance. That person's cube is right behind mine! :eyes:

3. Everyone.
There's some sort of Law of the Universe which dictates that there must be one in every workplace.

4. I love the idiots who blast their speaker phones when they're alone in their cubes.
Pick up the friggin' receiver!

7. Or get a headset.
I can understand not wanting to talk all day with the receiver cradled between ear and shoulder, but that's what they made headsets for.

8. I waited 8 months for my manager to get me a headset. He got it and
gave it to the woman he has a crush on instead. (She tried to give it to me, but I didn't want him angry with me.)

Friggin' office politics. I'm too old for this nonsense. Get off my lawn! Damn, I sound like McCain.
