What ever did we do? How ever did we exist?
Before you hefers moved downstairs??
"Your fax machine has a fax in it."
" Your printer has something printing."
" Your fax machine light is blinking."
"Your email icon popped up in the corner of your screen."
"Your printer is out of paper"
"the boss is looking for you"
"while you were away, your phone rang"
Again I ask you .............how ever did we function without your constant announcements?
I will see my empty paper tray when I go to get my printout.
I will see that my fax light is blinking next time I go to fax something.
I will see that I have an email, when I open my email program.
The boss will find me when he needs me.
Whoever called either left a voicemail or will call back.
When your "helpful, ass kissing ass" announces these things, it makes MY emails an office conversation. When you announce that my fax machine needs paper, it makes the I.T. guy get up to refill it, and I have to hear him bitching about having to get up to refill it. When you announce that my phone rang, it makes my boss ask why I dont forward to voicemail. When you announce the blinking light on the fax machine, it makes all the cows start to MOO for the next ten minutes about the flashing light, and what it could possibly mean.......
So again I ask.....................how did I ever function without your announcements......I functioned just fine and dandy, and with alot less commotion.
Oh - you've got "helpers" do you? I can't stand them. I want to tell them, "Mind your own business, leave me alone and let me do my job - while you do yours!" Is there some "nice" way of getting that point across?
ReplyDeleteThey sound like they're positively annoying. Can't you just slap them? Oh I suppose not right... but I bet you feel like it a lot of the time.
