Overboard?
I would like to throw one of my co-workers overboard of a cruise ship...
Yet again, I had to suffer through a terrible smell of horrible fake maple syrup. Real maple syrup smells good, and real. Fake maple syrup smells .... fake. The secretary at work INSISTS upon eating a maple flavored oatmeal every few days. She absolutely refuses! to eat it in the cafeteria. Instead, she prepares it there, and then walks down a long hallway between cubes -- making the entire company able to smell it. I smell it in my cube, I smell it in the copy room, I smell it in the reception area where she sit. I smell it when I go to the bathroom. I litterally smell it everywhere in the company.
Everyone else smells it too. The vast majority detest the smell, and have told her so (including me -- repeatedly.) I even went so far as to suggest that she eat it in the cafeteria to contain the smell. (I don't think this is unreasonable -- do you?) One person has said that they like the smell -- fucking bastard.
Today it was too much. I was pissed. I went to go confront her (AGAIN) about it -- but she had left it sit on her desk, and was talking to someone. So I had to go talk to a co-worker about something -- and I started bitching (abet rather loudly) about how it fucking stank up the place and it makes me feel like I"m going to puke.
She evidently heard me and came out to confront me about how "some people like the smell." I have absolutely no patience with people who inconvince other people, and I let her know it. I said some choice things like "why can't you eat it in the cafeteria?" "Why don't you just eat it at home, you dont' have to eat this item here when it bothers other people." And the classic, "Why should I be inconvinced because you choose to eat that stuff? You have inconvienced me everytime you eat that. Why should your choices require me to be inconvienced?" She just turned red and walked away. I guess it was a little mean, but I was super pissed.
I hate when you tell someone that they are bugging you, but refuse to stop what it is that they are doing that bugs you. It's just plain selfish, inconsiderate, and not nice.
I wish there was a Neuhaus store in Rochester. It's so tasty. But then again, it's good, because otherwise I'd be super fat.
