You need to kick it up a notch and start pissing in the ice cube trays.
Ok let me reboot my thoughts. I won't be critical of the people who utilize good people friendly skills. I'm ing annoyed at the for acting like its ok to talk to me like I'm a 5 year old. Thats the real problem. Its not that I failed to say please its that she acted like a snotty about it. Life isn't perfect and sometimes people forget to say please and thank you. Its not an excuse to be an ass about it.

Honestly I couldn't do it unless I really really hated someone. The guys in the back pissed all over one of the techs ice trays in the fridge outside. I felt sick to my stomach as he crunched away after finishing his ice tea.
I picked the grossest thing I could think of in the context of your other pranks.
I can't believe it's already been done in your office and you watched the guy crunch the ice...
That I can fully agree with.
about 2 years ago. I still can't look at the guy with a straight face.

BacktoBasics,
Could it be that your office manager knows how you entertain yourself at work?
Could it be that she has noticed how you have stopped "doing all the little things to help people out and how the more you "avoid helping people the more fun" it has become for you?
Could it be that she has seen or heard about how you put customers on hold, even though you know the person they ask for isn't there, and then it rings back until the customer gets tired of holding and hangs up. Perhaps your boss has found out you do this and is sharing his frustrations with your office mgr. that he's constantly getting up to answer the ring back only to find out that the person they were holding for isn't even in the office.
Do you suppose your office mgr. is hip to the fact that when you write a deal up, you grab the original invoice and file, leave it in her room, and then watch the service guy dig around in the filing cabinet forever? This....even though he needs the file because he needs to know which trailer to pull around back to start a make ready.
Do you think she's heard a rumor that it might be you, who gets to work early and reads all the faxes before anyone else and stuffs important messages in between other fax sheets on unsuspecting employees desks?
What if she knows about you hiding the old saleslady's approvals and turndowns in your office?
What lies ahead? Will your office mgr. see from a hidden security camera she had installed that you like to put vaseline on people's cokes in the fridge?
Do you think "please" is all she will be asking for from you in the future?
Hey, I'm just asking.
Sociopaths don't think like that.
falcon punch that
I like how B2B always gets punked at work and vents on here. Some damn good threads.
While I agree that the world could use more courtesy, unless B2B asked his question in a snotty way, I have to agree with him. Saying "please" would have been nice but if you simply made your request in a professional manner, then I think she was kind of being a with the whole "ask me that again" schtick.
Given the at ude constantly on display by B2B I have no doubt there's another side to the story not told here.
This place is too cheap for hidden cameras. We couldn't even put color cameras up around the lot when were broken into every other weekend. She's not likely to be hip to what I'm doing because she only works 3 or 4 days out of the week and I'm smart enough to not with people so regularly that their is a pattern.
I'm sick of lazy backasswards people running a perfectly good business into the ground. I'm tired of working hard around people who come in everday and don't give a . Its affected who I am. The little entertainment that I do get helps me get through the day. If the economy wasn't so stiff right now I'd have moved on.
Thats possibly one of the greatest compliments I've ever recieved.
Just because I vent and share my strong opinions here on a forum with little consequence doesn't mean I rant and rave to people who determine my paychecks and future employment. The conversation was nearly verbatim with what was in the first post.
I said "please" dip . I caved because I had to. What other side is there? I gave in.
Maybe that is how she has fun. Don't ruin it for her dude
BtoB....just quit your obviously ty job and get on with your life.
Life is way too short to worry and pine over small insignificant details....maybe rather than extolling the disdain you have you could actually do something productive and maybe one day actually contribute to society. Good luck buddy...guys like you are the backbone of society. Always complaining, never doing. The economy needs guys like you.
That was hurtful and mean. I believe an apology is in order
Go yourself you arrogant little . I work because it pays the bills. Good paying jobs don't grow on ing trees unless your a diluted asshole like yourself. I contribute to myself and my customers I'm not obligated to contribute any further than that. I'm sure you feel like I owe you something or that I have no right to have an opinion because you're so much more of a contributor than I am. Well you're not.
I complain because I have right to vent wether you like it or not. Never once did I say my job doesn't get done. As a matter of fact my job description is to sell and nothing more. I'm 100% commission so my time wasted is simply my time not someone else's.
Go poke your eyes out.
Ok I'll bite.......
You do the minimum...guess what result you'll achieve...the minimum. It's ok as long as you can understand that and realize that you are at the center of this malaise....no one else.....wouldn't life be a lot easier if you didn't have to complain. Of course it's your right to and vent and I'm sure your overall intentions regarding your life aren't so misanthropic.
I do the minimum because I'm tired of helping people for nothing. What part of 100% commission don't you get. I helped out to be a nice person but its futile. I don't earn more money from it and my life isn't any easier. I don't give a minimum effort with my customers because they pay my bills not my employer. I know I'm the center of all of this. Thats why I call myself "me" and not "you". DOING MINIMAL FOR THEM DOESN'T EQUATE TO MINIMAL WORK RESULTS OR A LOWER PAYCHECK.
My point is that I used to make an effort to help others out simply to be nice and nothing more. . That. . I get nothing out of it. Especially not the satisfaction of being a nice fella because these people are ungrateful annoying assholes who care even less about the feelings of others than I do.
She was an obnoxious to sit there and talk to me like I'm a misbehaving 5 year old. Then you call me miserable and minimal because of that. ing stupid.
Dude, thanks for the clarification. Oh, and I get that in 100% commission world the customer is the main focus. Remember how YOU feel about your boss or the co-workers is how your making it out to be. You put meaning on it. No one should dictate your happiness or sadness.
Removing value from a situation is pretty fundamental. I'm not saying its bad advice but to come in and rip me for being annoyed at the shortcomings of others or down right not liking a for being...a , is pretty ing silly.
Hmmm...please explain your message.
I didn't say she wasn't a . I'm just saying the more you see her as a , the more you'll get it.
