can't live with them, can't live without....actually I totally can live without them

coworkers are another species indeed. you spend most of your time with them yet you don't pick them or approve. sometimes it works out and it becomes a great situation. but more often than not, they suck. and when they suck, they suck hard.

there is one who is just so happy with themself that they don't acknowledlge your existence. in real life, most people would just avoid this type of person at all costs. unfortunately when its a coworker, you have to deal with the inane droning of their voice for the entire day.

another type is the bitch. the nasty whore who will screw you over whatever chance they get. they dont give two shits about you, and you should care less about them. whenever a coworker gets competative, its sad. they obviously dont have much to care about if they care that much to stab you in the back.

the one that just won't just shut the fuck up. not everyone needs to hear the details of plans for the weekend, or what you want to buy your boyfriend for their bday or valentines day. correction: not everyone WANTS to hear all that bullshit. keep it to yourself, nobody cares. reading the newspaper outloud and ranting about it is also not ok. also, if you talk in baby talk even once, you are dead to me.

one of my favorites is the foreigner. actually I lied. I hate foreigners. if you dont get my jokes, fine. actually no, its not ok. you are working with people who predominately speak english. that means you should too. no excuses.

the sensative kind is also a lot of fun. they will cry over anything. and its sorta funny when they do. you have pangs of guilt in the immediate aftermath, but then you realize that if you didnt make them cry, you shouldn't feel bad because it is damn funny.

the old creeper is probably my favorite. they are wierd, over 35 and probably live with their mom. sure its sad, but its also creepy. if they get too close, get away, its not safe. they will do anything to try to feel young and cool, even if it means stalking out the 20somethings.

you also have the young creeper. this is the one that will consistantly hit on you, make creepy weird comments and try to convince you that they are yoursoul mate. basically they need to realize that just because you were assigned the seat next to them, does not mean you are in love with them.

its a crapshoot when you start a job. there is no way to guess what you are getting yourself into. most of the time, you end up dissapointed and pissed off (really pissed). but there are also other times that you just simply luck out. you just click with your colleague and then its just fun to go to work. you can usually tell right away and then work is just comfortable and fun. this doesnt happen often (probably even less so for me because I dislike most people) but I have experienced it and let me tell you, its freaking awesome. it by far makes up for all the idoits I previously mentioned.

all in all, coworkers aren't human and you should't expect them to be. the remedy you ask? vent to your friends on gtalk. because hating on bitches is the most fun thing you can do at work, hands down.

XOXO
