Thursday *****fest - 6/23/16

***** (/biCH/): noun, informal. To express displeasure; grumble.

What's on your mind, OH? Incompetent coworkers? Obnoxious neighbors? Clueless significant other? Pissed off by world events? Keeping it inside is unhealthy.

• If you're going ***** about another OH user, do so by name. Passive-aggressive bull**** is not tolerated and will be called out.

I know my ride through rural NY and Vermont every day does not compare to many of you , BUT: I am tired of crazy drivers on the road, passing me on a corner on the secondary road, I follow you to the Highway and you do the speed limit once on the highway? Does not make a lot of sense to me, then again, this same tool was on his cell phone, another ***** for another day! LOL

People who think the rules don't apply to them!  I am so tired of people driving without license and no insurance and then they hit you and your insurance goes up.

Speaking of drivers, no one seems to understand the concept of the "fast lane".  When I lived in Chicago if you didn't get your A** over you didn't last long in the fast lane, here in CA they get in the fast lane and don't even go the speed limit. OH wait, they probably don't have a license and didn't read about the fast lane....

Rant over......

Oh how I hate people who drive in the fast lane and go slow!!! I feel like they cause wrecks more often than super speeders!

My grump: people who call my son "a little flirt" or a "ladies' man." He's a little social butterfly, he smiles and giggles with everybody.

He's 7 months old, FFS, babies don't do anything remotely romantic or whatever. He's a friendly little guy, you don't need to bring gender relations into this and talk about how he'll "charm all the ladies."

Besides, who says he's going to be interested in girls? He can charm the boys if that's how things go and that's completely OK by me.

Well, he certainly is a cutie pie ! 

Same here!! I've told my girls I don't care who they love, but have told them NOT to fall in love with an asshole.

Oh how I need this today. Okay - not quite true - things are going awesome in all other areas but work! But since this is the ***** thread, here it goes:

My boss told me today that they want me to start doing payroll. Now, I was hire 6 months ago as an HR Generalist to specifically help with recruiting (which is my background for 10 years). And then to get trained in helping with benefits and employee relations. We have an accounting department and we have zero to do with that and I have NO INTEREST in that at all. But the payroll person just quit and they want to not hire a new person, take someone from another department and get her to do data entry and me to do payroll.

UMMM WHAT THE F? Payroll would require me to work on the weekends - all the time. I have no problem doing that when it's necessary as needed. But DH works every other weekend and evenings. So as it is I barely see him, if this happens I will really never see him! I'm kind of freaking out. I live an hour from work because there aren't may jobs in my area. **** **** ****

I'm sorry- I started in payroll over 15 years ago and moved more into HR/project management.

This is in reference to one particular coworker:

Stop referring to yourself in the third person.

Pick.  Up.  Your.  ******g.  Feet.  When.  You.  Walk.

Everyone in the office has the same work to do.  You don't have a harder job than anyone else, no matter what you think.
