The boss got invited to Shabbat at a somewhat famous person’s (depends on how you look at them, and I don’t really give a flip who he is) house. So The boss was on the phone with his wife completely GIDDY over it. Oh i also need to mention that I was the one who took the phone call and the message in the first place. As he is talking to her I hear him pronounce “Shabbat” as “Sha-bet”. He does this a few more times until finally his wife corrects him. But then she probably asked him why he was invited…because she knows he is not really a big deal. And he said…
“Well I bet he just thought to himself
that xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is such an interesting guy, we should have him over for dinner!”
OHMYGOD. By this time I was in hysterics at my desk. AND THEN…he says it again, she corrects him AGAIN…and he says…
“Ok, ok, sha-bot…like ro-bot”
I nearly died.
Boss is sitting on the John talking on his phone again
*sigh*
I have has a LOT of sexual harassment in this office. So much that I have kept a log. I do this for my sanity, and in case I ever need something for court. Then again most of it was done by a guy who quit a year ago, but still…for your entertainment I give you #2 in the series.
So this one day I was eating a carrot and this is what transpired:
Perp:That’s a big carrot.
Me: uh huh
Perp: Like sex toy big.
Me: You’re creepy.
When you call to complain to me about my Boss not giving you a bid for the job he looked at OVER A MONTH AGO please understand that I am not an idiot. I was not the one who forgot about you. I am merely the one who gives him the messages about how he forgot to do his job. Also, you have called twice now. A rational person would just realize that clearly this isn’t the company you want to be doing business with if you have to bug them to get work done for you, especially in this economy. Mind you i do appreciate your call as I do need a job, so the more people stick around and wait for my boss to stop playing chess and get some actual work done the better (for me). However, if it were me I would maybe call once, maybe. Then if said contractor did not return my call or send me my bid I would move right along to someone who actually wants my business. That’s just me though! Oh and FYI you don’t have to tell me your name twice. Again, not an idiot. I actually do this every day. I am paid to do things just like this (message taking and the like). Unless I ask you to repeat your name I actually did hear it the first time. Especially since you have called before. Again, it was not me who forgot you.
Thanks! Have a FANTASTIC day!
Sincerely,
The Crazed office Manager

Please. Hep me.

**EDIT**
and then I heard him toot.
Really? Is that a new rule? Huh…no wonder I haven’t ever been able to make a phone call outside my own area code. Thank you Mr. Bossman for telling me EVERY time that you hand me something to fax outside our area code that I will “have to dial a 1.”
What ever would I do without you?
Maybe I should remind you of my techno-disabilities next time you change your email from sort by date to sort by sender and cannot figure out why it “isn’t working”.
Or how to print in grayscale….
or how to google a word to see if it is spelled correctly.
I am looking at YOU Mr. “Mortorboat”
Boss asked me to make a check out to “the name on the fax cover page”
I asked him “Which name?” and then read 3 names off that were on it…
“No.”
*sigh*…this is why it is helpful to just tell me a specific name buddy….
Boss: I don’t know what that is but it looks gross.
Re: my smoothie…a healthy smoothie…because I eat healthy food.
My immediate thought? Really? Cannot possibly be more disgusting looking than the stuff I have seen you leave in the toilet bowl for ALL to see.
