Been off work for a week, go back in today and within 30 minutes there was a server meltdown. 4 hours of running about trying to get the damn thing working again! Great start to the week :s

Been off work for a week, go back in today and within 30 minutes there was a server meltdown. 4 hours of running about trying to get the damn thing working again! Great start to the week :s  Yuck. As someone who had massive computer problems at work fairly recently, I hear ya – it kinda sucks how much we are reliant on technology nowadays; despite computers clearly being powerful tools of efficiency and productivity, if they ever go down, we’re stuck… ### I find that I still get really annoyed at generalizations. For example, whenever someone uses a blanket statement like “Catholics are stupid” or “yeah, those prideful Americans” or “well you know those girls are just gonna talk through the entire thing” or “I think it’s normal in their culture, like, with all of them”, etc., just really irks me. While cultural heritage definitely has its value, I believe we should focus more on exceptional individuals rather than the faults of a generic group. |

I work in a restaurant. Prep cook and dishwahser, but most of the time I end up doing a fair amount of being the front of the house ass saver as well.
The worst is when the servers come back and tell me they need silverware or glasses right that second. They know the machine takes less than 2 minutes to run. They know that I'll put whatever I need to in it no matter how full the rack actually is.
Yet they wait until they've run out of things to let me know it's running out instead of giving me enough time to actually run stuff.
Glasses I can sort of understand. But we put the silverware on the table for the maximum number of people the table can hold way before anyone sits there. There's no excuse for running out of silverware.

That does sound genuinely annoying. As for me, I work in a cubicle, and it genuinely aggravates me when a cluster of co-workers insists on suddenly having a meeting right beside me. It would be one thing if it did not affect my work, but during certain times of the day I have to answer phones and attend to visitors -- they will literally be standing in my way, or talking loud enough to make everything difficult. Granted, at that point, I do say something... |
