Mr. No Talent arrogant Kiss My A@# sales guy

It all started last week Friday with a cryptic email from an advertising agency. They needed specs checked by a publisher. It was then forwarded to me who realized there wasn't anything I can do because I do not adjust specs and I then forwarded it to the person who builds the ad who get this sends it right back to me basically saying they can't work with this.

OK at this point Mr. No Talent arrogant Kiss My A@# sales guy decided to copy the whole damn company and announce that he will get to the bottom of why this service request wasn't answered. My answer to him is there isn't anything for me to do, they haven't even set up there campaign. I have already spoken to the party that originated this idiotic email message.

Regardless, I look forward to the two hour meeting in the interrogation room about how this should have been handled.

Schadenfreude

Schadenfreude

n : delight in another person's misfortune

According to the NY Times, there is a location in the brain attached to schadenfreude. Can this discovery be put to practical use? Can we track and identify people who are more likely to find joy in the pain of another by a brain scan?

It would in the long run provide great crime prevention. Well that is only if the environment has no affect on this behavior and if we are all not disposed to occasionally feeling schadendfreude.

Reasons for loving SFXH

1. He doesn't use cheesy pick up lines like "I hope you know CPR, cause you take my breathe away" but does give me silly nick names like cocoa bean and chases me around the dining table.
2. He has an uncanny way of knowing what I am up to all of the time. He says he knows what motivates me. Weird because I pride myself on being a wild card.
3. He makes me laugh every day. Always says what's on his mind, especially when it isn't political correct. Yeah and he tells the dirtiest jokes ever.
4. He can carry a conversation with anyone and I mean anyone about anything. This one you have to witness.
5. He doesn't judge anyone and is always open minded in regards to life.
6. He follows his heart and lives his life the way he wants to regardless of the rest of the world.
7. He is always up for rescuing the scared hiker/climber trapped on break neck ridge and still manages to rescue me along the way.
8. He watches CSI and Dirty Jobs with me and talks only during the commercials.
9. He still takes me to Hockey games even though I yell and curse through the whole game and never tells me to calm down.
10. He has managed to get me addicted to football and always watches with me.
11. He is thoughtful in everyway possible.

I could go on but I think eleven reasons are enough for today.

Potty drama in the office

This all started before my time. I'll try to give you some background. The ladies room of my office tends to have toilets filled with stuff and the office manager cringes at flushing after other people. It turns out you have to multiple flush in that bathroom, maybe it's the pressure who knows but currently it is a big to do in the office.

It happened once before I got here and while I was on vacation and now today and everyone is throwing in their two cents and accusing everyone of the ultimate offense--"toilet leaving".

Please look below for some email snipits.

This type of behavior is unacceptable. First of all, you should not flush anything but toilet paper down the toilet. Second, if you do block the toilet, there is a plunger. USE IT! There is absolutely no excuse for leaving the toilet clogged. We are all adults and we do not have someone on staff to handle these issues; we must handle them ourselves. Please, if it is your mess, go fix it now.

The response

However, we should consider getting the bathrooms fixed by a professional. Besides the obvious, too much toilet paper and feminine problems, if this thing happens every week then we need to get a plumber in here to fix it (the water levels/pressure are too low).

The enivitable response to the above

The bathrooms have been fixed by professionals. There is nothing wrong with the pressure. I’ve had them checked by 2 different plumbers. The things that you say are “wrong with the bathroom” are mostly esthetics; it does not excuse anyone from leaving a mess.

People know when someone is in that first stall; no one walks in or looks through the lock. I will have someone fix it when there are other needs in the bathroom, there is no need to call in a professional for such a small task.

I’ve never had a problem when using the bathroom. I make sure that I clean up after myself. There’s no reason why others can’t do the same

Who would have thought corporate america could generate such issues. Well this all goes back to kindergarten if you ask me. We learn this stuff at home but then again there is a 4 flush demand due to office policy--so what if the culprit flushed and it just didn't take due to pressure. I'm not defending the culprit just stating the facts.
