These people usually just eat once a day. So when they see me eating they say " Is that ALL you are eating for lunch?"
I no longer put any effort into telling them that I will be eating again in 3 hours.

Jealousy, that’s all it is.
I usually smile & give them the STFU look. They tend to leave me alone after

For real, I get shit because I never partake in jeans Fridays. I want to tell these losers to get a damn life and stop looking for ways to falsely cure their miserable existence.

Who else brings a cooler to work with their food?
No cooler.
There’s a fridge and microwave down a few cube rows. Sometimes I think people confuse it with the garbage can, as there’s stuff that’s over a month old in there. If it’s old and gets in the way of my bag, it gets tossed.
You refrigerator Nazi!

Ah these wonderful office jobs.
My office isn’t that bad but I don’t have windows. I stare across the way at two men who BOTH clip their nails at their desks. I think it is disgusting and shut my door so I don’t have to hear “clip, clip, clip, clip” .
[/quote]
Someone near me clips his nails too. It sickens me. Is there no other time during this guy’s life when he can do that shit other than at work.

I cant imagine having to work in a cubical every single day for hours on, over and over and over and over and over again!
I feel sorry for you guys, yall must have some pretty boring lives.
P.S Office Space is such a bad movie, I tried watching 10 minutes of it and I couldnt take it.
Working in a cubicle = boring life? Not true.[/quote]
Agreed, never a dull moment at my place, but you’d have to understand finance humor to get it. I’m sure there is also law humor, accounting humor, insurance humor, engineering humor, IT humor etc.
I used to work in an office and really fucking hated it.
Now I patrol offices in the city at night time, lol, but its alot better. Some of the offices I see are just fucking huge, there must be like almost 100 people on a level with identical workstations. Talk about being a sheep in the herd.
What I would REALLY like to see is what would happen if coffee was taken out of every office for a week.

The PE is the Professional Engineering exam, a big engineering exam that you can take after working as an engineer for about five years. It allows you to approve/“stamp” drawings as having been correctly designed.
I’m sure the LEED accreditation is similar.
fuck the man up

2 accountants are sitting at their desks. One accidentally drops a piece of paper. He leans waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy over out of his chair to get it and starts saying, whoa, whoa whoa as he picks up the paper and sits back in his chair. Looks over at the other accountant and explains, ‘I almost lost my balance’.

I got some crap about it once, so I showed up the next Friday in a pair of jeans with paint spattered all over them and a hole in the crotch. A few people had comments, I told them that this was MY pair of jeans to wear on casual Friday. I did have underwear on.

I have 3 Engineering degrees, no PE license. I work for a Fortune 300 defense contractor who don’t require us to have PE degrees to sign off drawings, etc. You see more of that on the civil and architectual disciplines.

Rivers of blood, hrdgnr… rivers of blood. Chaos & mayhem would ensue. Idiots at my office don’t even brew a fresh batch when they finish the pot.

We bought my co-worker a bib that says “Daddy’s Favorite Tax Credit” or some shit for his new baby. And to boot, we all laughed, pretty hard too, when he opened it.
I’m such a fucking nerd, and it’s awesome.
Got cha beat.
The partner I work with the most rides bikes like Lance Armstrong. Dude dresses up in the spandex too.
I stand there and watch him, all sweaty after a ride, “clip” his toe nails, with those giant metal old school scissors they had in 3rd grade all over his desk, while we talk about clients/jobs.
Then he leans back, digs into his balls like there is lost diamonds smuggled under them, and then scrapes his inner ears with paper clips. All while wearing spandex.
Jesus I love my job. I love the fact that this is acceptable behavior because it’s 9 p.m. and we’ll still at work come 2 a.m.

This guy needs a ‘visit’ from Terry Tate, office linebacker.
There’s another Terry Tate vid…this one is hilarious too.

Dude, you’re so wrong - ALL Terry Tate vids are hilarious - I just wish I could implement his style @ work.
People would actually do shit out of fear and intimidation
