more from the grind.
looks like i struck a chord with some readers about office talk. bottom line is that it is a bunch of bullshit. it's good to know that it doesn't just happen here though. i figured that if they can nail office crap in a movie, then it must be a common theme. why is that? what is it about being with the same people 8+ hours a day that make us act like fools? (by 'us' i mean 'them'...i am in denial) it's the whole trying to act professional when most humans have no clue what that means.
i've always thought that i could never work with customers. like, "here comes a customer, they are an idiot and that pisses me off." but really, it's my colleagues that make work difficult. at least with customers (in most cases), you get a bad one...they hang around and piss you off for a while, but usually they leave. the people you work with you are stuck with. and 5 days a week, i have to spend more time with them than my wife. bullshit. but reality. and if i didn't complain about the dim-wits i work with, i'd be complaining about even more trivial matters, like how the superbowl is going to suck even more than normal.
but since i bring it up, wtf is with this year's version? i mean, does anyone care about seattle and pittsburg (talk about overrated (seattle) vs. under acheiving (pittsburg))? at least pittsburg has a feel good story with 'the bus'. the networks need something to cover besides the game itself. what else are they going to hype for two weeks? commercials i guess.
ok, so i'm a little bitter this morning. i guess i should apologize...screw it.
i hope you are all less bitter than i. (how's that for a wish of cheer?)
