Bathroom

When walking to the community bathroom in your office building take note of who you pass in the hall. If it just so happens that you pass another woman walking away from the bathroom with a latex glove on one hand and in the other she is holding a can of Febreze, and then you actually SMELL the Febreze, it is probably worth it to hike upstairs to the next bathroom.....even if your shoes are hurting your dawgs! :)

FADS!

I hate a good fad...HATE them!

I hate that your friend, relative or complete stranger

shows you his or her

NEW (you've seen it duplicated many times in different colors)

bead watch band, or hip new string necklace.

They also show you their new

"crafty" thing that they are now doing, that you should be buying...

Please Friends, Family, and Strangers alike have courtesy

no one and I mean NO ONE

wants to buy your craptacular anything

we have seen it 1 MILLION times before


on someone else.

its not cool, your not cool and your craftiness SUCKS!!

HOLD PLEASE

Dear Mr. Customer Service Rep

Please put me on hold before holding a 3 min. conversation with a co-worker. Really, it's the polite thing to do.

Interviews

Things that should DEFINITELY be said in Southern Utah Job Interviews
"Oh don't you know so and so, he is my bishop"
"In my old ward I did the following tasks...."
"I vote republican"
"In my free time I'm the young mens president and my wife stays home with our six kids and one on the way"
"I am only here to see so and so" (when the person that will be hiring you is not the same person. but the person you are asking for knows your parents, grandparents)

April Foolsing

According to the most clever of six-year-olds, he is great at April Foolsing. So here's to you, Mr. Smartie Pants, for the great prank in saying "oh my gosh! Look at that cheetah!" - you really got me!! :)

Politics at work

Politics at work = FAIL (primarily because there are too many extremist wackos out there making everyone who has any kind of opinion that doesn't involve catchphrases from some slimeball's talk-radio show feel as if they might have just made an enemy for life.)

Leaving your dishes in the sink at work = FAIL (I know that I used to do this when Sweet Catherine worked here and mothered me, but now that I'm the only lady here and this bloody chore has defaulted to me - apparently because I have a vadge - I am well aware that this is more than taboo. It is downright discriminatory! I have a child....and it's not you (thank goodness). )


Getting angry with the peeps who are there to help you do your job = FAIL (um, these people have worked for the company for YEARS, have been extensively trained, and are trained for the sole purpose of helping YOU - yes you, the newest guy to this company, understand how to do your job. Why you gotta be mean?)

Treating people like minions = FAIL (this is only slightly a feminism thing, mostly it's just a respect people thing.)
