» Mobile phone disasters

Remembered this,
thanks to YellowFever.

One day at work, my manager had gone off on some unknown mission, leaving her mobile behind.
About 5 minutes later, the boss rings...

Me: X's phone, Sneezy speaking
Boss: Is X there?
Me: No, she's buggered off somewhere (may not be entirely accurate)
Boss: Well, does she have her phone with her?
Me: Err.... what are you talking to me on?
Boss: Her mobile.
Me: I guess she doesn't, then...

» The Credit Crunch

No Change
I got paid fuck-all then, and I get paid fuck-all now.
The only problem is my savings are getting less without me actually spending them. Which is why I'm looking for a new job...

» I Quit!

Not me, and not really a flounce...
...but it ws impresive.

I work for a very small company, with only 7 employees. One of my co-workers (lets call her X) was a little different, shall we say - she was 37, hadn't worked for at least 5 years before starting as an intern at our place, and had no previous experience with a computer.

X hadn't been happy in the job for a while (there isn't much room for promotion in a company this small, especially if you don't know your way rond a PC) and during one late night at work, she FLIPPED OUT!

Everyone else working that evening was in the back room, but could hear X screaming at the manager about how the company was shit, the manager was shit, the way everything was run was shit, the employees were shit (despite the fact we were in earshot), and lots more to do with how shitty the place was.

The manager could only take so much of this, and told her to leave if she wasn't happy. We all went for a drink after this, apart from our disgruntled co-worker, and all agreed we wouldn't see X again.

Next day comes, and despite everything that was said, X is back! No-one could figure out why she was there, as she'd pretty much told the boss to go fuck themselves the previous night.

(X left a month later, but only after sitting around with a face like a slapped arse for the entire time. Good riddance, I say)

» Pet Peeves

Toilet Paper
Or rather, people who don't replace the roll if they use the last piece. No idea why it annoys me, but it does.
One of my old housemates learned his lesson because of this peeve - when he found himself without, I posted the sheets under the door to him. One ply at a time. I'd feel worse about it if the other housemates hadn't held the door shut so he had to suffer...
