  • when coworkers are stingy with their petrochemical foodstuff

    —Amy, it wasn’t me, I swear. I’d never put that shite in my mouth. Judging by the proliferation of exclamation points in your note, though, you may want to reassess your approachability. Just a thought.
  • when coworkers come to my cube to talk shop before I’ve had a chance to put my lunch in the fridge
  • when coworkers discuss the breast cheese scene in Borat while I’m trying to eat at my desk … gag me with a spoon, man, seriously
  • when my favorite cubemate’s not around to covet my new shoes
    New Strappy Shoes
  • when coworkers show up 30 minutes late to a meeting, then proceed to ask all the same shit that was just covered

    I see you spoke with your ‘IT Department’ and got the comment feature of your Blog fix. You should tell them that if it happens again, their jobs are getting outsourced to India. IT people a bastards anyway. They deserve to lose their jobs! Oh…umm…what did I just…oh crap…

    My boss pulls that last one all the time. Always 15-30 minutes late. No only does she bring up everything that was already covered, she forces everyone to re-make all decisions that were made before she got there. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE MY JOB!!!

    I’d love to lick all the way from your toes on up…

  5. [...] I sent the passive-aggressive note from my recent 5 Pet Peeves at My New Job post to Kerry over at passive-aggressive notes from roommates, neighbors, coworkers and strangers, one of my new favoritest blogs. She was kind enough to post it and link back to CMG. Yay! (Someone even told me to fuck off in the post’s comments. Hehe. I feel like I’ve finally arrived.) [...]

    So I got to know if the “amy” in question’s last name begins with an “S”. I swear I know that handwriting from a previous life! Smart Balance? Just add dinosaurs + blue-green algae and poof! Petrochemicals!

    Sorry, ButtFuzz, wrong Amy. Why … do you have some psychotic Amy notes you’d like to share with the class? Do tell.

    Ha! I can’t believe I found this! (I actually found it at the Passive Aggressive Notes blog via casual reading).

    Who are you? I can’t tell by the shoes! Do you still work at PCP? I’ll trade you candy for a chat!

    Much as I’m tempted … I looove candy … like any good freedom fighter, I have to keep my super secret identity under wraps.

    Super Secret, my butt — did you get my invitation? Honestly, this whole to-do/online dramaz totally made my day today. I mean serously, you know what it’s like trying to squeeze fun out of the workplace in a month like this, right?

  12. on 10 Jul 2007 at 11:58 pmAmy

    P.S. I think those “Did U wash Your Hands 2 Day?” posters need to be next.

    Okay, okay. I like Kit Kat Bites, btw.

    I have to say, that I could not agree with you in 100% regarding 5 Pet Peeves at My New Job, but it’s just my opinion, which could be wrong :)
