Inconsiderate

As you may already know, I'm at work. It's Saturday and I'm not happy. Okay fine, deal with it right? I had planned to, that is until I was double-teamed by inconsiderateness. I'm trying to resolve a fairly important issue at work and these two decide to come here and bring out my mean side. Question 1. If someone is on the phone do you speak to them? Normal people are courteous and wait for you to finish your call. Not these two. Question 2. If someone is obviously irritated by you and has verbally said so, do you stick around and continue to bug them to the point of shear meaness when they are normally nice and easy to get along with? Most people can take a hint. Not these two. Question 3. If someone says get out! Normally they mean it. Why would you stay around? These two did. Needless to say, my Saturday at work has been far from quite. I've been on the phone all darn morning only to have no one answer any of the numbers I called. What is the freaking point of having a celluar phone if it's not on or you don't answer it. If it's on an emergency contact list wouldn't you think you should leave it on? I tell you it's the alcohol. I think people forget they have important jobs when they drink and how they should always be ready to perform them. Are there any responsible people left?

So I see you are having fun at work... I often have the same problem. Often having to work 36hrs non stop because no one will share the wealth. Sometimes I fail to see the humor in them saying "I have a life!" Well I would like one too... However you think by getting promoted you will eventually have one... I can say it has gotten mucho mucho better. Now I find the humor in watching them not have a life. Nice people have good things happen to them. It will get better just think nice cheery thoughts... And remember its just a job and that there is peace outside of the workplace.... Take Care and God speed. OH and by the way nice people sometimes do cellphone checks in the middle of the daylight as a curtesy check "Can you hear me NOW?" cuz your phone was malfunctioned when I needed you DA. :@) tata
