Yesterday I had too much caffeineFollow

Vagina Dentata,
what a wonderful phrase

I was a little too honest with my coworkers. I told my clinical director he needs to learn to use his words a little better and actually ask if a treatment case is mine because I do all the @#%^ing treatment, rather than call everyone else in the universe about this family. (telling someone to use their words, if you don't realize, is what you tell a little kid when he acts out) I also said something snarky to a coworker about when she talked about how easy it is to get a parking space at noon when she comes to work (she works a few half-days, is a doctor's wife and a general drain on the agency). It doesn't sound like much snarkiness but in passive aggressive land it has been. And there are other cases, including the realization that if the whole staff wants something, like they did this week (and I won't get into it) and I disagree, I can get my way because I'm more direct.

Some of my friends here think I enjoy scaring my coworkers too much. God, bourgeois passive aggressive mother@#%^ers. I think it's a good time for me to be moving on. Smiley: laugh

Realize that I empathize and put up with stuff for my clients' sakes and the students I supervised and that's about all I can muster.

Do you enjoy making your coworkers squirm? :P

I enjoy berating my co-workers as much as possible. Makes the hours after lunch zip by.

I would be nicer to them if they weren't so annoying.

I firmly believe that you don't regret any of this and you'll do it again.

In the past two days I've told 3 salesman to go fuck themselves. Ignored a manager as he described "his new process for completing orders" and broke a closet door.

I have anger issues.

I don't limit myself to coworkers.

Friends, family, strangers at bus-stops, kittens, deaf people; all fair game.

I haven't been angry lately, but I suddenly have the libido of an 18-year-old, or more. The past few weeks have been...interesting.

You can do it, Ash.

One foot in front of the other, little baby steps, right out of the closet.

We're here for you.Smiley: flowers

Not exactly, but I advocate strongly for our customers and if that means telling the developers and marketing people that they're ******* up, so be it.

My other eye was teasing a homeless teenage mother.

I've found that the best way to deal with my underlings is to be as intimidating as possible. I'm not the sort of person that takes kindly to people running up to me every five minutes to clear their latest idea with me. I much prefer to train them properly and then assign them their work so I can get on with mine. There are three of them that I know of for certain that are actually scared of me, and another two that hate me, but I get the job done better than my boss who had the job before could ever dream of. At the moment I've got my eye on his job.Smiley: sly

I had too much caffeine yesterday, too.

First my mum called and I talked for 20 minutes before she could say what she wanted.

After that, my assistant called. I only talked for 10 minutes.


Then I met my friend on the underground and talked for far too long befo she could even say "hello". Then I was like "I had a cup of coffee in the morning..." and she was like "Oh, no wonder."


I also saw a FLAMING HOT guy on the underground who reminded me of AshOnMyTomatoes. He then got out a calculator, and that reminded me of Bijou. I also might have winked at him. Smiley: blush



As for dealing with co-workers, I bribe them if possible.

FYI, you need a job before you can ***** yourself out to co-workers.

I also might have quoted BT yesterday to get rid of two a bit too interested junkies. Smiley: mad


Seriously, I think they just take heroin because they couldn't deal with each other's company without it.
