NJ2 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Its not even people making plans though, its just vapid comments like "its 5 o clock somewhere" and "can't we just go to the pub now". It’s nice to look forward to something, but not everyone will look forward to the same things. Let them look forward to the pub, you can look forward to your weekend [emoji4] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crroma Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 What’s even cooler is getting absolutely seething at people talking about looking forward to a drink.Seething is a bit much, people love throwing around that word around as if to imply that having any non standard opinion is a threat to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Gets upset when people go in early to work. Gets upset when people leave early. Gets upset when people talk about what they're looking forward to. Seething seems quite fitting, tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 A female colleague of mine was explaining that she had to move desks to avoid sitting underneath the vent of the aircon. She told me that women generally like to be a few degrees warmer than men and apparently women's brains don't function properly at lower temperatures. A less civilised man than myself might have taken advantage of that opening. Or made a sexist remark.There are at least three women in my office who's brain wouldn't function properly if they were sitting on the fucking sun. Nothing to do with temperature for a lot of people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Just got an email from a work colleague who is in India for the first time. Hes in bandit country (Odisha) and staying at a university guest house. The guy sorting out his food has asked him if he would like some complex meat options to add some variety to his diet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 14 minutes ago, Estragon IS NOT a fud said: What is the most tedious office chat from work colleagues that is possible? For me 1. Talking about their planned holidays 2. Talking about their game of 5s the previous night 3. Talking about their children 4. Talking about holiday they just went on 5. Asking about your lunch while you're eating it The geeks in the office talking about their fucking fantasy novels and which ogre demon the protagonist has to fight next. Guys in their 30s and 40s. One of whom is married. Fuck knows how. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 None of these things are inherently wrong or bad office chat fodder, it just depends on the people involved.A colleague of mine once proudly showed me photos of his sons tattoos, all of them absolutely awful. I’m not a great actor and I’m not sure I managed to hide my “oh dear God” reaction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
