CC:'ing

Don't you hate it when someone emails you and then cc:'s the whole world? I'm like if you wanted to ask other people, just go ahead and ask them instead of me. Leave me out of it. Maybe that's just me. Not to mention all of the bcc:'ing I'm sure that goes on. Can we all just say what we need to say respectfully to whomever we need to say it to? It really could cut down on the drama.

What It Do

What do you call it when you have tons to do and you continue to add more things to your list? A glutton for punishment? With all of the things I have going on, I am working on a business venture that I hope to start soon. It's exciting, but I just hope I'm not getting in over my head. This evening I only saw my little one for 10 minutes tops, before it was time to put her to bed. Not a good look for me.

Weird Dream

Have you ever had one of those dreams that wake you up because they are so disturbing? I had a dream last night about 2 of my co-workers that put me on the look out for them. One of these chicks I already dealt with a "long-handled" spoon, but the other one, I'm really cool with. The dream made me feel as though I really need to pull back with these chicks when I get back to work. I don't know, but I woke up feeling like I had been given a warning to guard my feelings with them. After I was fully awake, I started thinking of 2 other instances where I thought "we were cool" and I ended up the last one to know about some pertinent information with co-workers at other jobs. Hmmph..... I think I'll take the cautious route on this one. I'ma keep my eyes on these two just on GP.

Office Bully

Today, I read an article about "office bullies". It was really something that I couldn't understand. They talked about the boss bullying subordinates, which I could kinda understand, since they could potentially fire you. But I really don't understand bullying in grown ups. *i hope it's not cause i'm the bully* Anywho, I can't see why as a grown up that you couldn't say whatever you needed to say to another grown up. I think some people may get bullied because they allow themselves to get bullied. Bullies usually prey on people that they know won't stand up to them. If they misjudge and step to someone who gets with them, they usually go find another target. Relating back to my previous post, everybody needs to say what they need to say to whoever they need to say it to. It doesn't have to be confrontational, just because you let someone know what's up. Actually, I would prefer a person to come to me and speak on it if they feel I have done something wrong or inappropriate. It cuts out the middle man and kills the gossip. What do you think?

Passive-Agressive

So, stuff is still crazy at work. Along with the hat.ers we have these passive-aggressive tendencies going on. (Katt Wms has another name for it) For instance, I printed something on a local printer accidently that should have been sent to the main printer. I get to work the next day and someone had written a note on the printout saying "this large document should have been sent to the main printer, it has used alot of our ink", without a signature. Ain't that a blip? You big and bad enough to try to get me told, but then you punk out and don't sign your name so I can get with you????? Don't be all mr. get bad and then want to be anonymous!!! Oh and then, I had someone to come to me "speaking on the behalf of others" to say that someone had a problem with my schedule. I told the spokesperson to tell "others" that if there was a problem with my schedule, what did they think the solution should be? The reply was, "oh, i'm just the messenger". People are so funny. You can best believe that when I'm being Ms. Get-Bad, I want you to know it's me doing it.

They betta be glad it ain't 1992 in this piece, I woulda been chin checkin' everyone up in my area. *shoving can of w.a. in pocket*
