Stuff you dont like doing in work..(aside from actual work)

giftgrub · 22-08-2012 10:53AM #1

I often find a good way to while away the time in work is a session in the crapper...

However if there's someone else in the jacks when i get there, I turn around and hold it for a few minutes....

I also hate work birthday celebrations, its always the same cake, and theres never enough.

A leaving whip around for someone you hardly even know!

People who think they are some sort of big shot cos they wear a suit every day, a suit does not guarantee brains!

People who come into the office holding their cup of coffee aloft like it was The Olympic Flame. They have just paid an extortionate price for hot water, coffee beans and milk. Then they proclaim, "Oh I just couldn't function in the morning without my Mocha Latte Frappa cappacino with sprinkles!" :rolleyes:

Covering up other people's balls-ups and then having to take all the flack for it.

Browsing boards all day....

It gets me through!

Driving people around.

Am I the only person who loves where I work and the only thing that I dislike is that actual work, and even that I don't mind, more of an inconvenience than anything!

Conversely, mine people who object to throwing a few quid into the pot when someone is leaving because of contrived reasons like that.

Unless they've spent their time with the company literally shitting in your coffee stop being such a tight fucker a throw in a few quid.

Getting ready to leave to clinic and a client turning up late as I reach the front door. Then its a case of telling them they can't get their methadone until later or worse still none today and they have to come back tomorrow. Some take it very personally and kick off then, as if we are taking delight in the fact that they are late.

No really my job, but if you are the person walking out the door and refusing to let them in, you get caught up in it.

Ahh to be fair, if I dislike the person leaving I generally won't put anything in, however, I have no problem stating that. I don't hide behind vauge excuses, I just say I have no time for that person and they are no getting a penny.

I like the people I have the most contact with every day, get on well with them and they know what to expect when I open my mouth....then they went and split us up so now I just don't like work at the moment.

Going by that logic do you throw a few quid into every beggar on street's coffee cup?

What really annoys me is when it's a collection for people I have never had interaction with in work.

"Have you signed John Murphy's card? And add to his collection?"
"Who?"
"John Murphy, the guy from IT, sits down in the corner"
"Name doesn't ring a bell tbh!"
"Ah he's leaving today, do you want to throw in a few quid?"
"Do I fook!!!"

Work is the only thing I love about working.

Other people's dishes. Lazy f*cks, clean your own manky coffee cups.

The lotto syndicate. We haven't won anything of real value in 5 years, but that fear of everyone else winning and running off with their new fortunes without you makes me begrudgingly throw in my money at the start of the month.

Smalltalk.

JohnMarston · 22-08-2012 12:12PM

Work makes the day go faster, that's its only redeemable factor

suicide_circus · 22-08-2012 12:28PM

Dealing with superiors who attained their position through length of service or nepotism rather than ability, competence or merit.

Dealing with the general public. Ignorant unwashed cretins.

JohnMarston · 22-08-2012 12:33PM

Dealing with higher ups who think they can assess my work and tell me how to do it better, when they've never done this actual job. :mad:

Corvo · 22-08-2012 12:53PM

Constantly watching and waiting for one of the girls in the office to turn off the cold air. As soon as she gets back to work I go back over and switch it on again.

Damn you cold bitches.

22-08-2012 12:53PM

Getting caught for small talk in our small canteen

Our office nights out suck too. People who you would think are sound, turn into bores or idiots. And the idiots become bigger idiots

idleness, i hate carrying someone else in a kitchen

Union knobs who make your day hell, and have basically become useless through years of avoiding work at all costs.

Coversheets on TPS Reports.

Small talk in the lift/tiny canteen, especially 1st thing in the morning!

Mickey Dazzler · 22-08-2012 01:53PM

I hate it when I fall asleep at my desk and my boss puts his penis in my mouth.

seven_eleven · 22-08-2012 01:57PM

Calling around to peoples homes to collect money. You can just feel the hatred off them everytime I do, even though they're well used to it by now.

Well, lord knows your day is busy enough with being wrong on the internet to take the time out to write a message of goodwill to someone, can't be expecting that much from you.
It'd be unfair.

st3veebee · 22-08-2012 02:22PM

Farting just before someone comes over to talk to you, and becoming the worst actor ever.

I'd sign the card of someone who is leaving and wish them the best, even if i didnt really know them, but unless the one leaving is on the breadline when they leave, im not giving them money
