The ultimate invasion....a pee test. I had to submit to the humiliating piss test before taking the job at the original OOD. What's worse than taking a piss test? Working at the clinic that offers piss tests. Now that's an Office of Doom!

Had the sniffles all day long today after retuning from my sick day. Had to run to the drug store at noon to pick up Kleenex, hand sanitizer and DayQuil....but I'm ok now.
Boo for being sick.
I should take your advise and call in sick some day when I'm really not...I'm sure it's a lot more fun thataway.

2008-08-20T14:52:00.000-07:00

Oh V, I hope you feel better soon and damn straight you enjoy yourself in the meantime. I for one have no problem calling in sick. I've never had that problem ever. I guess that makes me a lazy ass. I'm ok with that and it's true. Life is too short not to use all of your sicks days..and I mean every last one.

You should do this more often. In face, next time call me and we'll hang out!

2008-08-12T07:50:00.000-07:00

Things the Not Boss is Not:

Not Sane
Not Professional
Not Effective

and finally:

Not. Worth. It.

There is something out there that's better and without such insanity.

That's hilarious.

2008-08-12T06:42:00.000-07:00

That's hilarious.

2008-07-30T09:42:00.000-07:00

Boo for scary cubicle farms and HOODs! Lola, I heard all about it this past Sunday and wowza...you really MIGHT be a crazy magnet. ;-) Eventually you will find your zen place in the universe of employment. Of this I am certain.

Violet, free bagels and mochachinos???? I get free verbal beat downs from stupid people. You've got it good. ;-)

Yay for the OODers for entertaining me again.

2008-07-20T17:48:00.000-07:00

Not boss does that's who. And it's happened more than once. Not a good sign.

OH, Lo....That really sucks about your "not boss."...

2008-07-20T17:34:00.000-07:00

OH, Lo....That really sucks about your "not boss." Red writing on e-mails is just plain stupid....Plus, who really rakes a new person over the coals...that's a tad bit mean.

Yeah, we'll I haven't gotten paid shit yet. I'm ab...

2008-07-20T16:44:00.000-07:00

Yeah, we'll I haven't gotten paid shit yet. I'm about to loose it, V. Instead of free bagels we get berrated via email in red font which is as bad as getting yelled at in ALL CAPS as if we are stupid little children.

Hey, I heard there was a pilates group that meets at 5:30 up there a couple of times a week. You should check it out. I'm going to find out if I'm allowed to come.

Meanwhile, I'm freaking out about how to respond to the mega bitch email I got over the weekend from the "not boss". I've thought of pretending I didn't get it at all but I don't think that will work.

I miss the office of doom. Come back lola and violet...I need reading material!

Don't give up! You can do it. Go Violet go!!

2008-06-23T21:27:00.000-07:00

You are f-ing hilarious! Douche is the most horrible nasty funny word ever!

I like the way you think.

2008-06-22T22:10:00.000-07:00

I like the way you think.

2008-06-22T22:09:00.000-07:00

Fatty gave me a crappy hug on my last day of work too. He must be hug impaired. I had to initiate the stupid thing. It was the oh-so-awkward sitting/standing hug. I was standing up (on my way out the door) and he was sitting at his desk. I came by to say good bye and he just sat there....didn't even get off his fat ass. So i had to lean over and try to hug him.

He'a a weirdo.

2008-06-18T18:48:00.000-07:00

Oooh maybe you should make a t-shirt that says TEAM VIOLET like those stupid Aniston/Jolie ones that were so popular a few years ago. That would be hilarious. I would wear one for sure.

Go team Violet!!

2008-06-18T18:47:00.000-07:00

Go team Violet!!

"Fatty finally found the banana."

Maybe his wife wouldn't be such a bitch if he'd never lost it in the first place.

Congrats on taking the big step!!! Can't wait to hear all about the new digs!

2008-06-12T21:25:00.000-07:00

good for you miss merry....my step up was not quite as good as yours either...but us working gals deserve every cent!

way to go

2008-06-12T21:21:00.000-07:00

way to go

2008-06-12T16:11:00.000-07:00

I wish I was leaving for such a lucrative step up but I'll have to bust ass to get this bitch moving. I suppose a little hard work never hurt anyone but I was hoping I would come into something more along the line of what you found. Congratulations! I didn't look for two years though - just about six months. Probably should have held out for the "perfect" job but not sure my sanity would have done the same.

I hope things work out for the best for us both!

2008-06-12T04:58:00.000-07:00

OK this is the first post I've read and HELLO!! Did you see the joy I posted about my new job!! I've been at my current job for 3 miserable effing years...there are a lot of pluses so I kept rationalizing (or remembering I get a discount on Aveda products, whatever). That place had broken my spirit and will. I was becoming a office robot but, somone up there finally took notice. After about 2 years of looking for a job, I got one!!! And it seems to be everything I've been looking for...sign on bonus, 20% rais in salary and a 15% annual bonus...plus I'll be in Canada training in 10 short days. AFter that I'll be in New Orleans! Do it girl, get out!!!

Way to go Lo! I'm sorry you were so sad...but just...

2008-06-11T20:09:00.000-07:00

Way to go Lo! I'm sorry you were so sad...but just like a bad break up you've got to let it all out....
