Why isn't there a comma on the right side of a keyboard where the numbers are?

How every one of the major news networks (Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc.) have a 'BREAKING NEWS' alert ALL THE DAMN TIME for every story!

(ugh...it's gotten to where I don't even pay attention anymore because it's so overused)

That's the advantage in having a boss that's a few hundred miles away

He's on vacation today, has been for a couple weeks. Comes in today and sneaks up behind me. He scared the crap out of me and thought it was funny. The guy is a maniac.

I used to have a pet peeve but I had to get rid of it -- it kept peeing on the carpet.

You need to have your back to the wall and face the door -- don't you watch the Sopranos?

I tried... The branch manager decided to switch my desk around (this was when we moved into the branch) and now the only way it works is to sit with my back to the door.
Now there's a pet peeve....people that just want what makes them happy without any thought to anyone else.

but its "your" desk. You should be able to have it facing the way you want it too. Be the rebel and change it!

Wouldn't having your back to the door be a security issue?? People could come in and see customer information without your knowledge...someone could come hold a gun to your head and you would not have seen them....I would point this out!!

I would if I could TG, like I said it's the only way it works in here. It's an L desk and the one they gave only works this way especially when the customers come in.

Better yet, switch desks with him and see if he's smart enough to notice.

Better yet, move your boss' desk so their back is to the door...

I have. These people just don't get it. I'm so far back in the corner, of course I do have a nice window view, that even if I faced forward I couldn't see much. This place is nuts......

I've tried everything possible... at least I did manage to get turned sideways... but still that doesn't work... people come in and out of my cubicle half the time and I never notice them until I catch a glimpse of them and then it's too late... I've already jumped 6 feet... LOL...

Search....I think you've got it way worse than me. I have a pretty big office...no cubicles here. I'm going to quit belly aching now. But I'll have to agree with the jumping 6 feet in the air. I do it all the time. One of these days my heart is going to give out.

I'm there with ya on the heart giving out...

Some days I think... could I beat this dang cubicle to pieces and get away with it...
