Ugh, I know this will sound bad and mean, but I seriously feel most of the time at work that I am volunteering at a home for special needs people. Good god, I ask them to do something, and they look at me like I have a penis growing out of my forehead. Then they say, "ok" go on their way and call me constantly on the phone asking questions. AHHHHHHHH!!!!!
I have to do most things by myself, if I dont it doesnt get done right, or quickly enough. My dad is the boss here, I am second in command, in two weeks he is heading out west for a week and I will be here all alone, drowning in the sea of tard.
Last week I took thursday off, I usually take wednesday off. Well I left on wednesday and my dad called me, and said you have four phone calls here that our lady in the office took messages for cause she thought you werent here. That morning when I got there, I talked to her about something, then when I went to get something to eat I told her, I will be right back I am getting something to eat, Ok mike. However she still, when people call tells them that I am not there, what the fuck. I guess she must have seen me and thought, oh no no, it is wednesday, he cant be here, no, no he isnt here, cant be. I had to go all the way back and return the calls, ugh.
Usually when my dad is gone, she will call me asking stupid questions at least five times a day. I mean it is so bad I wouldnt at all be suprised if she called me and said, I need to poop, now walk me through this, do I wipe before or after? It is just going to get worse, we are starting to pick up, and it has really been cutting down on my time in here. Which is just not right.
Ok rant over.
Oh man i know your pain. I have anywhere between 20 - 30 people depending on work load answering to me.
Some nights i feel like strangling each and every one of them.
The worst are the 18 - 25 year olds, the ME ME ME generation.
They wouldnt know a hard days work if it jumped up and bit them on their ass.

Maybe walk around and pretend to write stuff in a notebook, make sure to have "pink slips" in your hand. That might get them the kick in the pants they need.

My old boss used to do that all the time, he was a funny bastard. He would carry his clipboard around and you would get done welding look up and he would be there, look at you shake his head go , uh huh, make a check on his paper and walk away. He used to scare the shit out of the new guys when he would do that, they would come over and say, dude what is he writing on that paper. I would say, oh man he wrote on the paper while he was watching you? Yeah, oh man that isnt good, last guy that did that was gone the next day.
Oh that was funny, I miss that job, everyone there worked their asses off and there were people there that had a sense of damn humor.
Here I swear to god all people think is funny is like fart humor, even that is stretching it, they just dont get shit. One of them is a born again christian who found Jesus at the bottom of a whiskey bottle one night. Always preaching the good word, well if you ever want to learn about the bible let me know, Yeah all ready read it, but thanks. Well there is a difference between reading and understanding it, living it, UGH!!! He told me once that the world was only 4000 years old or some shit, I looked at him and said you gotta be fucking kidding me, where the hell did you hear crazy shit like that. I pretty much avoid him, I have told him dont talk religion with me, I dont care what you believe, leave me alone. UGH, I am ready to leave this place today, I fear with all the anger building I may rip someones head off.

I had to come back into this rant, cause I need to vent. Why we pay other poeple to do stuff here is just beyond me, our office lady needs to be put to sleep. She is absolutely the dumbest goddamn person I have ever met in my life, you have to talk to her like you would a little kid, look into her eyes and talk real slow. I feel like a dick for saying that, but it is true.
Then we have our holier then thou sales guy, if him and her got together and had kids, she would give birth to a sack of fucking rocks. That is how dumb they are. I have had enough of it, fucking idiots, I have to damn do everything around here the boss is gone, so I am the damn boss and have to babysit. I might just go crazy, it is very possible.

I think a sack of rocks might just win an IQ test by a slim margin.
Well, you can always go home and hit your wife with teh phone book. :P

No I cant, cause she works late on thursdays, and I am not going to hit my little kid. Spousal abuse is cool, but child abuse isnt :D
By the time she gets home an 930 I am not in the whipping mood, plus she is pregnant and I dont want to hurt my unborn child. If she wasnt I could push her down the stairs or something that wouldnt take much energy.
My poor little kid did that a while ago, we had the gate down and my wife came around the corner and there goes the little kid. My wife freaked ran over and our child was on the landing at the bottom of the stairs laughing, she held on to her elmo the whole way down. After they got upstairs and my wife put the gate back up, my kid had a melt down cause she wanted to do it again.
If I were going to push my wife down the stairs though, I would push her hard so she had some air time. There is probably some lurker looking at this thinking Jesus what is wrong with this guy, if so, yeah some people like to build little boats in bottles and shit, I like to beat the hell out of my wife :twisted:

Haha, you're cracking me up!!
This however is why I now work for myself, I only have to liaise with other folks... On occasion.
Also to save energy when hurling the wife down the stairs tie a guitar string at the top, I find 8" to be good height.
