Let's hear your "Dear Coworker" letters
Dear old man in storage,
Please stop asking me about school. You are just too negative and discouraging. Yes, I STILL have 2 years left. And yes, it's taking me forever to finish. But I'm married and have a full time job. And please never say "You sure are taking your time" ever again, or else I will throat punch you (in my mind of course 
)
Sincerely,
3rd year Senior
Dear OSU fan (who happens to be the old man in storage),
Please stop bashing OU everytime you walk by. I haven't said one single negative thing about OSU, so please stop saying negative things about OU. I also don't need to hear about how "OU's education program is horrible" and how I "should've gone to OSU or Northwestern." I'm a big girl and I can make my own decisions about my education.
Love,
Proud OU Education student

Dear custodian who pops in every now and then,
I really don't mind talking to you and all, but please hold the convo until I'm done doing office stuff [like answering e-mail or retrieving messages from my voicemail]. And let's be more positive, shall we?
kthx,
Me
Dearest Cubicle Neighbor,
STOP MOTHEREFFING STARING AT MY BOOBS.
Thanks!
Dear Accounting Manager and HR rep (who are not my boss)
I find it oh so funny how you guys are constantly concerned about what I'm doing and what my hours are, However, every morning when I come in, half of your office isn't even here yet!! I would really appreciate it if you guys would focus on your own employees and your own jobs instead of constantly worrying about mine.
Thanks!
Christina
Dear Older Co-Worker:
You're awesome. Really, amazing. In fact, one of my favorite co-workers. But would you please turn up your hearing aids? WHAT? You can't hear me? No way.
Thanks!
Dear Boss:
You're not nearly as cool or funny as you think you are.
Dear High-Up Management Person:
You're an asshat, and that's totally going to bite you where it hurts someday.

When do you start the new job?
Just curious, is this the guy that I know from the end of last semester?

Yep, that's the one! If I ever see you again (I feel like I haven't seen you in ages!), I'll tell you about some of it. And Okla, I start on Monday!

Ha! He totally seems like the type that would think he's cool when he's really not. And sounds like a plan, I love stories
Good luck at your new job! You'll have to let us know how it goes.

Dear Coworker: I am sorry you are doing terrible at your job because of your personal problems. I feel especially horrible that you are in the process of getting divorced for the third time. However, given that this IS your third divorce, you'd think that this would virtually have no effect on your work performance. Also, your work performance might increase if you would spend more time worrying about yourself and not what others are doing especially considering you f up nearly everything you touch.
And one more thing, that eyeshadow? Horrifying. Let's place leave it in the 1980s where it belongs.
Dear Asshat Nurse who agreed to take my paperwork and phone notes while I'm on vacation: I should not be getting phone calls/emails while I'm ON VACATION because you are too lazy and slow to handle it. If you didn't want to do it, don't volunteer.
Dear Spoiled brat who's-mama-might-as-well-be-the-boss: You're sh!t stinks as much as the next character. Just because you worked somewhere before this office does not make you a genius. Also, no one cares what color your underwear are, or that they match your shoes. And while we're discussing it, it would be helpful if you would stop speaking in tones that only dogs can hear... mmkaypumpkin. I hope I'm a fly on the wall when you finally grow up enough to realize that the world is in fact NOT on orbit around you!
Dear Boss lady: You suck. The end.
What do you mean that's the wrong side? Tastes great to me!
What do you mean that's the wrong side? Tastes great to me!
Dear coworker,
Please stop acting like a 5 year old. It's not flattering watching a grown man pout. Why do I need to "be on your side" when you're clearly wrong, and I offer a neutral opinion? I just can't tell you that because then you'll pout even longer. And no, I'm not the one who is negative all the time.
Thanks,
Me.
