Breaking News...


An “ass chewing” has just occurred in the cube next to mine.  Interestingly - it was not done by the individual's boss, but it was done by mine instead.  My boss is the VP of the Legal Department.
I don’t know the finer details, but I believe it has something to do with over-stepping her boundaries.   I heard a lot of “so I’m to assume that you obviously don’t value my 25 years of work experience, but instead you choose to treat me like someone that’s fresh out of school" from her.  Eeek...
Knowing her personality (she’s pretty full of herself), I would not be surprised if she walks out of the building within the next hour.  She will come back or it could just be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. 
In support of my boss, he started out calmly discussing the situation and then it escalated from there by her shrieking at him.  He’s pretty easy going and for him to "ass chew" someone – it NEEDED to be done.

I think I've been reading too much Kevin Smith lately because that is so not where my mind went when I saw ass-chewing.

I love overhearing conversations like that. Please tell me you got the audio?

WOW! If this is the same girl who can't turn on her own computer monitor, I have to say I'm surprised she's still even there! I knew that stapler would get her into trouble eventually!

:D

Nothing more fun than to hear an ass chewing at someone else's expense. Let us know what happened next...

Nice! Nothing fun ever happens like that where I work. Everyone is pretty normal and there isn't much drama - boring I guess but the people are still fun to work with. I like no drama when it comes to work but it does sound interesting! :)

I Was Feeling Pretty Good Until...

I had my annual “physical” yesterday.   I’ve been attending the same clinic for well over 20 years and am overall happy with the service I receive.  The clinic is part of a state-of-the-art teaching hospital, so with that I typically have relatively quick access to a network of specialists should the need arise.  With that being said, I’m usually treated by residents and have rarely had the same resident in all my 20 years. I felt pretty good going into the appointment and then not so much by the time I left.   Why do you ask? Well, first of all I was treated by Miss Doogie Howser.   I swear she wasn’t even legal drinking age.  That in itself made me feel old, because when I first started going to that clinic – I WAS her age. As she was running down the standard list of questions (i.e. do you smoke, how much do you drink, is there any history of heart problems in your family), she ask...

Snot Bubbles and Wedgies...

Scuba diving can be the most relaxing, peaceful experience of your life – no cell phones, no boss and no noise, except for your own bubbles; however it can be a sport that is not for the faint of heart – rough waters, sharks and crushing depths. If you are self-conscious, shy or weak of stomach, scuba diving may not be for you. Let me explain… Warning: The following may be overly descriptive. Read on at your own risk… The scuba wetsuit. There is nothing glamorous about squeezing a size 8, 10, 12 body into a size 8 neoprene wetsuit, while sweating under the Caribbean sun. It’s sort of like trying to put a sock on while your foot is still wet. Scuba diving professionals may tell you, that neoprene doesn’t shrink, but those people are liars. What they are really trying to do is make you feel good about yourself – selfish bastards. I am living proof that my wetsuit has shrunk on numerous occasions – usually over the winter months. Coincidence? I think not. The wedgie. This un...
