Guitar Teaching: Everything is awesome.

HR Job: Well... mainly just certain people.

Miss Cliche: Everything she says... "It's not rocket science", "At the end of the day...", "I'm gonna hit the ground running today!". Shut up

Miss Chanel: The lady who feels that a moment not spraying herself with perfume is a moment wasted.

Mr Motivator: The guy who wears abnormally short and tight shirts who's only topic of general conversation is his diet and gym routine

Miss Hyena: Has to laugh after everything she says... everything.

Oh, and I don't like having to ring a member of management and explain we haven't paid them correctly... especially if it's my fault.

The people.

There's too much srs and too many brats with big egos

Filling out the feedback forms after every job can be a bit dull.

I'll avoid the obvious answer of everything (I've been doing basically the same job on and off for, I want to say 7-8 years now with almost no substantive change aside from some periods of unemployment and a stint at a call center).

Getting accounts to balance because our clients are morons. Didn't record any of the adjusting entries we made last year? No problem, I'll just record those this year. Wait, retained earnings still doesn't balance? And they didn't make any entries to it? And last years balance in their books is fine? What the smurfing smurf is going on?! That shouldn't even be possible. It's the accounting equivalent of typing 2+2 into a calculator and it spitting back 73.59. Worse, a few hours later and I am barely any closer to figuring this out.

I'm hung over again - this is work related because I'm hung over after a work event.

Sometimes people call me a street walker at work because I'm the dude who walks about helping people.

Um....sometimes work distracts me from posting on eoff and facebook?

Waiting. So many times I need to input a command that takes 4-5 minutes to accomplish, and I do 3 in a row. Or I do a build that takes 15 minutes of me just sitting here. And I fall asleeps.

Did anything at work happen? --> Make a spreadsheet and waste time.

[Rantz]

Just time reporting, really. We're required to report what tickets have taken how much time and what their nature is, and stuff like that. Takes more time than I like from actual work.

I suppose the only thing I can say so far that is tedious about my new job is that sometimes I get real idiots on the phone who genuinely believe being rude, offensive and aggressive to me will help their case. I will say this now: Any time any of you EVER call a call center customer service desk after help be nice as pie. Seriously they're there to give you the help you need, but if you're rude or aggressive well they aren't face to face they don't have to stand there and take it they can very quickly, easily and with only one warning in advance terminate your call. If you've ever been that way, think about the person's patience with you. They took it when they don't have to.

In my old job I hated everything apart from helping the few customers a day who made asking people if they needed help worthwhile.

Aren't posting in EoFF everyone's jobs?

I was recently promoted to assistant manager, and basically all the other assistant managers are friends. I don't want to be friends, dammit--I want to do my work and go home.
