He came into my office again.
Edited on Wed Jun-17-09 12:31 PM by LeftyFingerPop
Without knocking,

My boss.

I had DU up on the screen, an opened bag of potato chips, an opened can of beer, an a huge ashtray full of butts in this no smoking facility.

He asked if I could do a quick spreadsheet for him that he needed for a meeting in 10 minutes.

Without looking away from the DU screen, I simply said "Fat fucking chance".

19. You really need to put up a sign...some people can't seem to take a hint
and, you may want to sit him down and have a chit-chat with him regarding his constant interruptions to your work day...

20. That reminds me of something, seriously...
Me and a co-worker used to work on deadline driven projects. I've talked about this in here before. 55 hours straight with no sleep, etc.

We shared a huge cubicle. If anyone dared to come in to talk to us, they would usually get their head bitten off.

Our co-workers hung signs outside our cubicle....

"Do not enter...sleep deprivation study in progress"
