There are two things that irk the ever-living shite out of me when it comes to jobs. Forget about the waking up early in the morning, or not having a 4 hour lunch break. That's "trivial", my boss tells me.. IMPORTANT, but trivial. VITAL to my existence even... but trivial

Whoa, is cubicle boy your personal assistant?

[as_mona_says]

Yes. :(

What a coincidence, I only have two coworkers and one is that first person. "OHHHH I have SO much to do. I guess I'll stay in for lunch AGAIN and get paid for it because I'm soooo busy." Then cue in her, at lunch time sitting at her desk chowing down and surfing Myspace, on the clock.

I also am not a morning person. However, I don't have a super hyper personal boy slave.

What is that you do, exactly? And did you hire cubicle boy?? Because I think I'd want to shoot him.

[as_mona_says]

I work at a law firm, for the managing partner.

I didn't hire him. When he was being hired I advised against it based ONLY on the fact that I could tell he was a morning person. My boss said it wasn't a good enough reason, and that I needed the help too much to complain. Thus.. hired. :(

I have both of those people in my office too.

I think you described my annoyance perfectly! :)

[smudged_mascara]

since he's your assistant to you have the power to fire him or move him to someone else so you don't have to deal with him? i think you should look into that before i'm watching the news and there is a story about you killing him

[as_mona_says]

Nah, he's not only MY assistant, and I seem to be the only one annoyed by with glaring ray of sunshine. Unfortunately, you can't fire someone for being too happy. :/
