Is It Just Me?

Am I the only person who has coworkers who don't work?

I actually have coworkers who don't show up for work or are known to disappear for hours at a time. They leave the lights on in their office to create an appearance of being there. They complain about being so busy yet never do their jobs.

Aren't these the people who are supposed to be fired?

I wish I had the guts to put posters around the office like this......

MISSING! BIG REWARD!

DOB: 29 again
Missing: All the time
Sex: With everyone
Hair: Bad dye job
Eyes: Never open
Missing From: Work
Last Seen: Payday

The reward doesn't need to be money. I would settle for watching these slackers being escorted out of the building.

Open Mouth, Insert Foot

If anyone ever takes up a collection for me, it should be for a gag.

While I can bullshit with the best of them, I also have a tendency to speak too much of the truth when tired, aggravated, or generally pissed off. Of course, this isn't a good thing most of the time.

Case in point was today. A coworker was talking about something that annoyed me. My reaction should have been "Who cares?"

That would have been too easy.

Instead, I shot off a sarcastic comment about a third party that, while evasive, was fairly cutting.

Not only do I feel like a complete ass, I also gave her something to think about with the comment.

So much for my cunning strategy.
