Dear Co-Workers, Again

[cat_77]

Yes, it's Friday.  Yes, it's beautiful out and we can see the sun shining through the windows.  Yes, it's already the afternoon and we have already eaten lunch.  Yes, we all worked our butts off this week dealing with the incompetence of the other office.  However, I do have one little request for you:  ANSWER THE DAMN PHONE.

Thank you.

Totally NOT being snarky. I'm on valium and vicodin right now, so I'm little...happy.

I have to listen to my next door co-worker's personal phone calls all day long. Seriously, it's like she sets aside time each day to do it. And it's not like a "Hey, just checking on tonight, OK, see ya later" call. It's a "go into great detail about stupid shit for 20 minutes" call. On the other hand, I always get commended for the number of phone calls I talk. I figured it out, and based on the numbers I saw, I took a full 15% of the phone calls in the office. I'm guessing you took at least that many, too.

I know I don't take as much as you do, but I do know I take more than most. It's just frustrating when you have some major issues happening in NY and need to talk to your attorney and every time you reach for the phone, it rings. Oh well, what are you going to do? Expect them to work?
