I HEAR STUPID PEOPLE!

Okay - I know to live in a "pod" environment - you have to put up with other people's chatter, eating, and other annoying habits. Well - today I AM SICK OF IT! I have been in a meeting for pretty much the whole day - but as soon as I come back - it starts. It is THE ONE who speaks to herself - ALL DAY LONG! And if she isn't speaking to herself - she is speaking to me - and she SAYS NOTHING! A bunch of words strung together - that mean nothing and then she'll throw in a hearty laugh or giggle to make what ever she isn't saying funny! If she isn't talking - well - she is filling her face with food - all kinds of food that come in crinkly - noisy wrappers. Not only THAT - but one day she refused to do some computer related task because it was causing her to aggravate her carpal tunnel syndrome - but then completed the day doing "something else" computer related that I'm sure was not work related either. Okay - let me get this straight - there is now a new super-carpal tunnel that afflicts the wretched in mere hours but only affects certain type of computer work? Man oh man! But back to this eating thing - she ain't grazing - this is binging - now I love food as much as the next fat chick - but really maybe if you put down your peanut butter/cheese/cereal/Chinese/crystal light/enormous salads/Danish Butterhorns, etc., and paid more attention to the work that needed to be done - then maybe I would be more willing to bend an ear towards your useless and insignificant information every now and again. I mean - really - all she has to do is MONKEY WORK...........AND - she NEVER leaves the office. I can be here at 6:00 in the morning - she's here - I show up at 8:00 pm - she's here - I stay late - she's here - I swear she NEVER goes home! What's with that? Or WTF?????? I mean how can someone actually get away with pretending they are more stupid than they actually are?! Here's to stupidity - I need a drink! Cheers - DIZ
