And we don't have the temperature thing, we have the lights. The lights are ALWAYS off. Our place is dirty and nasty and everyone likes them off. One of the guys started to turn them on and we all looked like squinting gophers. It was a war between one person (not me) and him. She is the loud mean one and she won.

We have something in common, we're both Scorpios but there it ends I'm afraid, except I also hark from the south. <br /><br />I blog to encounter new folks and new ideas. I enjoy dissimilarity as much as that which is the same. Your ex[eroience of three generations in the office attests to the joys and struggws of this. I've nothing to add, except that it's always hard - this blending of generations and personalities. It therefore needs more of your humour and good will to get us through. <br /><br />Great post.

I'm the only gen y in my office and I'm also constantly needing affirmation. I'd also like some respect in the bathroom, but i don't think i need to go into that now.<br /><br />More than anything, I really think people shouldn't look at generation Y's computer screen while they're working. It makes everything uncomfortable, even when I am actually working. When someone stands behind me, I lose all ability to type, spell, or make my fingers hit the keyboard like a humanbeing.carissajadedhttp://www.carissajaded.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1681427690632608430.post-31482092294794416532010-05-04T04:45:07.597+10:002010-05-04T04:45:07.597+10:00That song was HILARIOUS... and I love that guy.

I've had a few interesting jobs including one at a newspaper which was sort of like Wonderland (as in all rules were turned on their heads and not as in it was a wonderful place to work. It wasn't.) so my rules might be pretty skewed. Things like, employees will not take phone calls while seated on the toilet. (My boss, routinely did this. Unfortunately - for so many reasons - it was a very small office.) Also no employee shall refer to members of minority groups as "brown people". (Yes, this happened to, and yes this was my boss.)Alissa Grossohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16701189791875707920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1681427690632608430.post-80196000754393474542010-05-01T16:33:28.320+10:002010-05-01T16:33:28.320+10:00lol, I love what you have going on so far, unfortu...lol, I love what you have going on so far, unfortunately I have been unemployed for so long I have nothing to offer on office etiquette AHAH!angel6033https://www.blogger.com/profile/08021557227371246549noreply@blogger.com
