The abuse I have to take at work.....lol
Exercise: 40 push ups, 160 crunches, & 50 leg lifts.
I think I must have had a bigger sign than usual on my forehead today that said harass me please. There's a guy I work with who I will call Shorty. He's an EOSG (Equal Opportunity Shit Giver) and lemme tell you after having a couple days off, he was more than ready to dole out the crap.
Usually this guy will go around and see who is out of the office and say that I made them sick. He also likes to come in the kitchen when I'm at lunch so he can make some comment about the food I am eating especially if it's something like a veggie burger (he's soy hater....LOL). Typically he will lean over me so he can have a look at my food, say, "Ew what stinks?", then turn around, shove his nose in the air and walk out chuckling to himself as I'm making some remark to put him in his place. Today was like most, however, one of the other business managers (I'll call him Mr. R) was sitting beside me eating his lunch too when Shorty walked in. Even though I had actually finished my food by the time he came in, he still went through his little routine and after he did, I called him a weirdo and told him to get his nose out of the air. The guy that was sitting next to me had sort of a puzzled look on his face so I explained to him what was going on and he laughed.
After I clocked back in and checked my email, I saw there was a message from Shorty. It seems giving me crap about my food was no longer good enough for him. He had stooped to the level of saying the guy I sitting next to at lunch was trying to hit on me - WHATEVER! LOL
Here's a transcript of the emails that went back and forth between us. Keep in mind the guy giving me crap is in his 50s and the guy he is referring to is 49. Both are married and neither the type I would go for even if they were available and I was too.
Shorty: I think Mr. R was making the moves on you in the kitchen.
Me: Sounds like you're jealous.
Shorty: I think you like those tall skinny types. You put him and your husband together and you might get 200lbs!!!
Me: Hmmmm....someone have a height/weight inferiority complex?
Shorty: No not at all. Are you having lunch with him again tomorrow? Does J (my friend/co-worker) know about you two?
Me: Uh huh sure whatever. I think somebody's just a little tiffed because he didn't get into the kitchen in time to see what I had for lunch so he could make his little funny guy remarks.
Um no, I won't be having lunch with him because I will be making myself sick tomorrow afternoon about 12 (yah I know "atta girl!"). As for J...I gave her all the gory details so that she would get the real story instead of your twisted version.
Shorty: I bet J was jealous about Mr. R
Me: Oh you know it just like you are jealous of him.
Shorty: Yeah I have always wanted to be tall skinny and bald headed........sexy
Me: Denial isn't healthy for someone your age.
He never responded to this remark. When I saw him later I said something about him knowing I was right because he didn't have a comeback. He came up with a bunch of excuses but I told him I didn't buy any of them. LOL
A little later he started emailing me again....
Shorty: I am not feeling very well, I am goin home and don't think I can make it tomorrow........oh that's right you were just over here.
Me: blah blah blah you talkin?
Shorty: Old Mr. R just walked by and he had a big old smile on his face.......what did you two do in there??
Me: Just my mere presence has that effect on people....well everyone except you cause you're jealous.
Shorty: You wild and crazy woman you.
Me: Yep - that's me. You only wish you could be "one wild and crazy guy".
What can I say....just another crazy day at the office. Gotta love my job really. LOL
Now for something completely unrelated.....
I was watching the local news and it seems some teenaged boys from this state decided to pour some lighter fluid on an opossum then light it on fire because they were bored and wanted to make a film that they could submit to some website that has extreme shit on it. The news didn't play the whole taping because it was too graphic but they did show the part where the fluid was being dumped on the poor little animal. I can't believe how fucking sick some people can be! At least now something like that is considered a felony in Iowa so the dumb asses who were doing that will get more than just a slap on the wrist like they used to.
Otay....time for me to be off.
Til next time....
