You know it's a bad day when..

...you wake up too literal minded to get a joke (sorry again, Knightwizard - nothing like being stupid in a public forum), you sleep through your bus stop and have to walk back a good 10 minutes or so to get to work, you *still* have to muddle through your work day (even though you really just want to go back to bed and try again tomorrow, thankyouverymuch)...and just about everyone is annoying you.
From coworker Ted who condescends to the entire office ("Is Anne in today? She's not? Well, who's doing her work? Because it's due THURSDAY, you know - read your email!!" - interestingly enough, Ted is not Anne's boss...he and I are low people on the seniority totem pole, and actually the least likely to be asked to cover anyone else's work..)to coworker Rosann who feels the need to repeat herself 4 times to you - at least! - even as you're backing out of her cubicle as quickly as possible, murmuring, "Yes, yes, yes,I know, I see it, yes, yes.." (and all you want to do is toss a ball gag in her mouth)..to being asked YET AGAIN to dig out and photocopy a ton of work for no apparent reason...*growl*.
I'm just wanting everyone to get right to the point; to stay out of my work; to not needlessly involve me in their work..basically to sneak past my cube and only speak when spoken to - and then, to be short, sweet, and to the point.
*siiiiigh*
Oh yes indeed kids, I'm not fit for public consumption today.
