office politics
more in the series of life's little annoyances:
#1 if you're going to have a little chat with your girlfriend on company time, at least don't just stand there with your paper half on the copy machine as though your poised to make a copy any moment now. for ten minutes. especially when i'm impatiently standing right there with my own frigging copies to make.
#2 the person with the most paperwork in their hands has the right-of-way in the hallway. period. if it appears to be a tie, then heels trump flats.
#3 if you're going to hang out in my office and you knock stuff down or move stuff around. put it back.
#4 please ask if you can borrow my pen first, instead of just reaching over and grabbing my .20mm Pigma Micron fine tip felt pens and grinding the tip down to uselessness, then ask to borrow a pen that works.
#5 in my personal opinion, "hi, how are you?" implies interest in an answer. if you don't actually want to know, don't ask me.
