Some customers do not understand the concept that if I am on the other side of a counter I probably want some space, you dont need to lean over the counter and get in my face to talk to me. =.=

*fire alarm tester guy comes in and looks around*

tester guy: “Are there any other exits to this building?”
Me *with a straight face*: “Nope. if there’s a fire in front of that door we are all trapped and dead.”
Tester guy *also straight face*: “Ok cool thanks.”

*student worker muffles laughter in the corner*

I hate fire alarm testing.

Every 1-3 minutes, the fire alarms go off. This has been going on for three hours now. There are not enough rooms in this sector for them to need to take three fucking hours testing the alarms!

The student is joking that maybe they have a bet on how long they can do this until we crack.

I told him: jokes on them, we are all too timid/polite people to actually go complain about it.

I heard a lot about Imagine Dragons on tumblr… did not expect to see an email about them at work today. o.0 Apparently one of the members used to be a student here? They did some article thing that the email was on about…

Just a kind of O.o moment to see it mentioned at work…

So our office is closed to the public on Fridays over the summer, because the entire campus is usually closed. I suggested we still work on Fridays so we dont have to do 10 hours a day monday – thursday. This is our first Friday.

My boss just realized we can basically do whatever we want. She is super excited she can wear jeans on Fridays, and is buying us ice cream to eat during work today XD

another work rant

Coworker all pissy because a minor change to one of our forms wasn’t put on the three fliers we made so far.

Well excuse me but I’m the only one who even knows how to edit this stuff and its really hard to remember every single form that needs to be updated whenever we make a change. Its not even a big deal if that tiny change is not on three goddamn fliers omfg. I only work 30 hours a week normally and I am expected to get so much done in that time and I’m sorry but things can slip through the cracks, especially because I am struggling to act normal on top of it because of adhd and depression and shit.

I really kind of hate the pressure put on me because no one else can be bothered to learn how to do this stuff. Another coworker today asked me to create a flyer for her from scratch and she would ‘do the hard part it’ and when I got clarification from her what she really meant was she wanted me to do literally every step except edit two pieces of text on it. And if I had created the entire rest of the flier for her, she wouldn’t have been able to edit the text anyways since I have a newer version of InDesign than she does. Which is also the reason I did not edit that stupid flier template yet. Because once I do, I am literally the only person who can make fliers at all until everyone else gets updated Adobe cloud. Id rather have a student create slightly outdated fliers than be the only person able to make fliers at all on top of all the rest of the stuff I need to do.

I feel a lot more stressed at work lately because of the amount of work I have to do and how badly I get distracted by other things sometimes (coughtumblrcough)

ruzuki:

Oh my god.

A coworker just got back from vacationing to visit her family in Poland, and brought back a bunch of Polish candy. I chose one that looked like it wouldn’t kill me, and I think its some sort of chocolate vodka truffle. I CAN TASTE THE ALCOHOL WHY DID YOU BRING THIS TO WORK?

Confirmed, the chocolate had brandy in it. I just tried another one with rum.

The student worker jumped up to get a chocolate as soon as he heard they were alcoholic XD

The person who brought them in said all of them either had nuts or alcohol so I had to pick my poison XD

Oh my god.
