I agree with everything Hec just said.
I don't think it was "spouting off"... It's a small suite, so you could probably hear a conversation-level voice throughout the whole thing, but....
Ack. I don't know how to interpret this. I'm a big fan of "keep your yap shut at work on all fronts and let other people's attitudes roll off you." I think it just ends up that both people are in the wrong.
Why on earth am I even partially defending my Rush-Limbaugh-loving coworker?!? But I do think the other woman overreacted.
This is why I'm not in HR.
24: Apparently, they have released the first 4 hours of this season on dvd as of yesterday.
Odd, no?
And it's on Netflix.
No one answers their work phone anymore. I find this especially annoying as I have to answer mine.
I'm currently stressing out because I have a voicemail from my big boss, but I'm on a conference call. I hate not answering my phone! Of course, I hate answering it, too -- mostly I just wish people would not call me.
My theatre friend turned me on to CJ, back when I was bitter and refused to listen to any female vocalist. Turned me right around.
Ha. The answer to this is to distribute your wrong phone number to everyone. Then act surprised when nobody calls you. Okay, this perhaps only works for me. But nobody ever calls me for work anyway. Yay. Okay, admittedly, I never answer the phone for personal calls, either.
See, I rarely answer my home phone unless I recognize the number, but screening your calls at work? Dude! Don't screen your calls when you've asked for technical support!
I just got a call from a SINGING telemarketer. I can't tell if the singing was supposed to be part of the call, or if I picked up unexpectedly while she was...singing. She didn't sound embarassed about it, so maybe the singing was the point. Or maybe that's just how she gets through her day.
Wow. That's a new one for me. Was she any good? Maybe she thinks she's going to randomly dial some big producer.
mostly I just wish people would not call me.
This is why I don't have a cell phone.
