I think that would annoy me, too, Dana! But, she there is a breakroom and another office between mine and hers, I don't need to be intimately involved in her every move. Actually, I should be happy that I am not the person working across from her, because anooying cow-orker is actually reading her emails aloud TOO the person across from her. Person across from her pretty much just ignores it, but I could not! I actually hate getting this annoyed, and normally try very hard not to, so I have now put on headphones. That can be problematic, because my boss sometimes yells for me, and need to be able to hear her (I know, that is pretty annoying, too)
ETA- Poor Teddy and {{{Fred}}}!
Hey--no one has an idea of a suitable size of bat mitvah money gift? Or are there too many unknowns in the question?`
amych said multiples of 18, depending on local currency: amych "Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns" Aug 21, 2007 5:56:52 pm PDT

Too many layers of annoyance!

Someone above mentioned that it should be in multiples of 18, because it represents chai. I think that $36 checks are quite common.
Article on Reading
According to the article 27% of Americans did not read a book in the last year. That means 73% did, which is kinda better than I would expect. There are some interesting stats about who reads what in the article too. I dunno if audio books would count, my count of books read would go up a bit if I counted stuff I listen to while commuting.
Because she reads her emails aloud! Stop it!
okay, I'm sorry that you suffer for this but, I have to say, other people's annoying co-workers are FUNN-EEE.

If I could count the scads of fanfiction I read, my count would go WAY up. Sometimes I even print it to read on a commute (by bus, not car)

Wrod, I slurp down thousands of words a week in fic.

Yes. Even $18 checks are pretty common for some folks. It depends on the swankiness of the affair.
Bwah. This is true of me as well. I've read a few books this year, but if you factor in McShep fanfic the word count has to be in the low seven digits!
