3D doritos were always a scam, then and now.
When most of your product is air pockets...
My wife likes to randomly rearrange cupboards on me and it drives me fucking nuts!
It seems to be a woman thing. I know at least a dozen married this with the same problem as us.Quote:

And yes i know it's a bit irrational, that's why it's in this thread.
Does setting your status to permanent yellow defeat this? I bet it does.
if you have coworkers like that, start scheduling meetings with yourself. No joke, I have had to do that at previous companies.Quote:

Cause that’s what you get when people wise up to you booking “focus time”
This also. Plus, it's an effective way to book a few concentrated hours per week to have uninterrupted work. A previous boss of mine would book about 2hr every day and call it "no fly zone" where he had the guarantee of uninterrupted freedom to get shit done or go check on others or go do field checks on construction or whatever. He was a smart dude.Quote:

Probably would help, but then you're just known as the guy who always does that and let's be real, you ain't foolin anybody. One guy in our department is well known to do this and he doesn't have the best reputation. I'd rather be known as someone approachable (even though it pisses me off when i'm busy like now) vs being grouped with the guy who always has status to away.Quote:

Rube Goldberg machines. Do not like.
Having a coworker that turns every trivial observation into a chat. "You got a haircut, you're eating lunch ." When sarcasm or a blank look has no effect, they have that dopey smile on their face 24/7 :nut:
You work with Gavin from Kids In The Hall???!Quote:

It is OK, like everyone in my culdesac has already swapped out their winter tires so it can't get cold or snow again.Quote:
