"I Know..."
Reply With Quote   #1

I swear, if you say "I Know..." in that condescending tone one more time, bitch, I'm going to stick my mouse up your ass, and the stapler down your throat, and see if I can get them to meet mid-way.

I have not had a good day, we've had system problems since before you came in 4 hours late because you had a doctor's appointment, and I'll be DAMNED if you think you're leaving in 20 minutes at your regular 4:30 leaving time...

Sit your fatter-than-mine ass down and just LISTEN ONCE IN A WHILE!!

actually, you can take a half day for doctor's if your salary & not have it count against PTO. Employers just usually don't tell you.

As for the 'I Know...' Kill her with kindness. Seriously, people don't know how to handle it if you are SUPER! nice to them. It unnerves them, muhahaha!

If you do snap and kill her, make sure we have the prison address so we can send a cake with a saw in it.

Oh, and she DID leave at 4:30. 11:30 - 4:30 ... nice. She did put in the 5 hours that allowed her not to use part of a sick or vacation day (company policy) by not taking lunch.

The phrase "you know" gets more more.

Not when it's used in the more common way, which is just as something to say in a pause while you get your thought together:

"I'm trying to apply for... you know... graduate school."

But when it's used by someone who doesn't know how to debate, or even much about what he or she is talking about in order to try to get the person he or she is talking to to explain it for them.

"I think the war on Iraq is just wrong, you know?"

It's really annoying, because a lot of people fall for the latter, and end up explaining what it is "they know" to the person who is so certain that they know it. That person then takes that information and uses it in other debates.

It's like intelligence leaching.

"I think the ... .. .... is just wrong, you know?"
I love asking "why is that?" Usually the response is worth a chuckle.

the best thing is that the overboss walked by just as I was telling my supervisor (who happens to be a friend from before she got promoted) that if they seated this person in the cubicle directly to the left of me, a pencil was going to get jammed into this person's head...

and then I had to explain about all the problems I have been experiencing since June and one of my other coworkers had a few things to say - the offending bitch is being brought to task in a meeting at 10 today... 10 minutes from now muhahahaha.

Sure, but she only did about 3 hours of actual WORK... 2 hours on the phone != work if it's not with clients.
