Am I going to get punished???




Ok,, things that Carl does that "bothers" me.
1. Opens my office door and walks in,, NEVER knocks.
2. Goes through your desk when your not around and takes things,, and says,, "Oh, by the
I went into your desk and borrowed your knife yesterday.
3. Never lifts the toilet sit,, NEVER go into the bathroom after him.
4. Doesn't wear his hearing aid,, you always have to say things 2 or 3 times.
I'll stop here but I'm sure I could think of more,, and he's married, and he loves to run to Popeye's chicken for lunch. Never brings anything back.
Lets not forget that he rides a "motorcycle" in to work,, and most of the day his
frigging nose is dripping all over the place,, he's constantly blowing his nose,,
and then dipping his hands in the candy dish,, and right now the candy dish is
full of "halloween" candy corn,, they have a spoon in the dish,, to scoop up the
candy,, put if you watch him,, you'll see him dip his fingers in,,, "just to get one".
He also pulls my frigging pony tail all the time saying "giddy up",, my reply is
"Carl,,, get a straw",, he knows what I mean.
I don't know about anywhere else,, but her in Connecticut,, if you "attack" a
senior citizen,, you get "extra" time. So,,, I really try to stay my distance with
him,, but it takes a lot. Like today,, I've only left my office twice,, and I've been
listening to James Brown all day long,, the louder the better.

ohhhhh....well in that case....I say you need to take the following course of actions:
Ok,, things that Carl does that "bothers" me.
1. Opens my office door and walks in,, NEVER knocks.
The next time he comes into your office without knocking...tell him that your brawny
husband, boyfriend, father etc... became mighty upset when you joked with them about a
coworker that walks into your office without knocking. Ask Carl, why would they become so
upset?...you need a man's perspective. Help him to process the information. In case of an
emergency and his further non compliance....keep a cracked pencil handy so that
you can conveniently break it like a twig the next time he pops through your door..tell hims
hes going to feel mighty guilty if he gives you a heart condition and you would appreciate it if
he knocks from now on...OR you can be direct and state in a in professional manner that he
needs to stay the fluck out of your office unless invited....his intrusions are a distraction.
2. Goes through your desk when your not around and takes things,, and says,, "Oh, by the
I went into your desk and borrowed your knife yesterday.
Oh...hell naw!!!! Gurl....have you told him that this is irritating. I would not mince my words
on this one old or not. Thats totally inappropriate. Do you think hes becoming senile? No
excuse....HR needs to intervene for real...in case you all need to put signs up to help his
memory until he retires.
3. Never lifts the toilet sit,, NEVER go into the bathroom after him.
Unfortunately...that one of those that we all have to live with at some point...outside of the
home. I only use the restrooms if absolutely necessary. I go home on my lunch breaks most
days otherwise I am very careful.
4. Doesn't wear his hearing aid,, you always have to say things 2 or 3 times.
Wow...I am feeling frustrated for you here. On the days he does not bring his hearing aide. I
would write notes and keep the chit chat to a bare minimum. i would act as if I am having a
hearing loss...in other words...ignor his azz.
I'll stop here but I'm sure I could think of more,, and he's married, and he loves to run to Popeye's chicken for lunch. Never brings anything back.
As far as the food goes....yep...I would let him know that your food is special and that you would recommend he not eat it....hence the shioots. I have a mini frig in my office...don't like mixing my food with the others.

Is there someone at your job that you can't stand,, because they eat everything in the
kitchen,, whether they brought it in or not? Well,, we have one at my job,, and my
mind has been on doing something to Carl for a long time. Monday I brought in a
"chocolate eclair",, I melted "exlax" on it,, well,,,,,,,,,,,,,Carl has been in the bathroom
all morning. He ate it this morning with his coffee. Do I feel bad,, hell no. Now,, I
just have to wait for God to punish me.







Years ago I had a similar thief who had the nerve to eat my calzone that I had barely eaten & was counting on for both my meals for a double I was doing. Boy, I prayed all kind of curses on his or her tail & asked God to make them so sick on it that they'd be just shy of death. I wouldn't pray that way again, but they had me so hot that I would've been in somebody's jail if I had ever found out who it was.
