Would this irritate you?
Okay, so maybe I'm just a tad touchy, or she is just plain annoying - almost as annoying as Snide. God, giving me more fodder for my proverbial canon.
So there's a PO that ran out of money. No freakin big deal. I was told about it on Friday as I was leaving - so I told her the solution was simple, I'd make another PO and I'd even do it from home. I did just that, while I'm away on stinkin bereavement leave. Then yesterday, first thing in the morning, I printed out the REQ that showed it was approved and a PO was created, and left it on her chair. Then later that afternoon I get this email: >>> Temp Girl 4/25/2007 2:09 PM >>> Regarding PO # 706805 Hey Cubicle Dweller, Did you ever open a new po for this invoice or how was it going to be resolved??? Were we going to do an increase??? Please let me know so I can send them off to be paid. Thanks! Temp Girl .............................. My reply ... I'm assuming this is the (fill in the blank) PO ... please give me reference with PO numbers, I don't know what they are off the top of my head and don't have them arranged by number :) Yes, I did. I put the req on your chair. I did it from home while I was on bereavement leave. So it's done - no worries. Cubicle Dweller ............................ Man she must really be curious about it with all those dang question marks. She then responded that she had just grabbed the papers and put them in a file and must review them. Blah blah blah. 5 comments from 3 users

???????? hahaha she really, really REALLY doesn't understand what to do here, CD Hey I have a quick one for you. Actuall conversation at work: co-worker: "Hey Normie! How are you doing?" Insert genuine smile here. me: rolls eyes, grits teeth, takes a deep breath then says, "OOoooooh, I don't know, ummmmmmm," pretends to think about it really hard then continues "the same as I was doing the OTHER THIRTY TIMES YOU/VE ASKED TODAY!!!" co-worker: "ummmm ok, point taken" laughs, and walks away. me: smiles in appreciation and hopes it's the LAST TIME I hear that question from co-woker... at least just for today! posted by

Wow, you have much more restraint than I do ... I probably would have ripped their heart out. (crossing fingers they do not ask again!) posted by

Oh, don't get me wrong! I like a nice genuine "How you doing?" ... it's when they ask everytime they walk past and are just saying it to say something and really don't want to know how I'm doing. ;) posted by
