What's grinding your gears?

For me, it is missed calls from random #s who don't leave messages!  Also, somehow I am on the call list for surveys. Stop blowing up my cell!

Re: What's grinding your gears?

  • Co-irkers in general.

    I've been working on a project for a huge client of ours. It has specific guidelines and protocol that needs to be followed per our contract with them. Are they being done? Of course not. I will probably end up going The Hulk on them soon. I hate being b!tchy at work, but sometimes a girls gotta do something!

  • Co-irker for me, too.   The stupid meeting Friday afternoon turned out to be a complete waste of my time and half the others who were supposed to come didn't even show up.  I was very pissy about it and it's still sticking in my craw about the way it was scheduled and such.    There's more to this but I won't go into details.

  • For me, its the fact I had to give up my Sunday to help my father -in-law move.. and it ended in a big fight with my hubbs and his dad... then I got no sleep last night, Now, I am behind on my work, and I cant focus right now to save my life...

  • I'm reading to shank MH's coworker. She totally exploited the leniency of their company (small, family-run) and really screwed everyone over. If she worked anywhere else she would have been fired years ago, but the management is afraid to say anything to her because they're afraid she'll sue them for discrimination. (Long story short-- she has missed over 6mos of work in the past year for elective surgeries and then maternity leave, and leaves early every day to pick her kid up from daycare.)

    That's horrible. I really hope people like her get dose of karma. I have a similar work atmosphere and I'm completely flabbergasted at how people can so easily have zero work ethic or morals.

  • My boss, for several reasons:

    -His texting tone is taps

    -He talks about torturing and eating cats as if it's funny

    -He's a racist and sexist bigot

    -He's socially awkward to the extreme and will stand in my office after a conversation is over for a full minute after I turn back to my work Indifferent

    How he got the position, I'll never know. In general, he's a know-it-all who can't ever consider the possibility that he's wrong, so he screws up a lot of things that we have to fix. I've just about had it. I can't work for someone I don't respect. At this point, the only thing keeping me here is the insurance.

  • I have another one...

    Why do a lot of the places of business we want to go to, close on Sunday?!

    How frustrating! I mean, I understand I live in the bible belt but I don't think God would be too upset if I had a ninja turtle snow cone yesterday.

  • Today is grinding my gears. As soon as I woke up this morning, I was over it. I'm trying hard to shake it off but I think it's just going to be one of those days. Hopefully an afternoon run will help.

  • A specific individual who always says "Oh! We just have to have you over for dinner!" (referring to both H and I) because they've been to our place a few times but yet every time I talk to them online or via text about what they're up to, they don't seem to be busy so in my head I'm thinking "Okay, why haven't you legit invited us over yet?" - I don't care if we go there, I don't, but I'm annoyed about the constant reminder that they want to have us over and no action is taken.

    Mine is someone calling and when I explain that "Mr. & Mrs. Richardson" are not here,  and this is not their number, proceed to call back 15 times that same day, asking for them!

  • I just spent all day on an audit request (that is due by EOD tomorrow) and my numbers don't foot.  It's math, dammit!  It's probably something obvious, staring at me in the face.

    I need to get up and take a walk...

    Blargh!

    I feel your pain!  There's a woman who has been calling my phone and asking for "Holly" off and on for the last year, sometimes several times in one day.  I even have her listed on my contact list now.  It's so bizarre and the only conclusion I've come to is she must have Alzhemier's because she seems confused and forgetful.
