I Hate My 9 to 5
Mood:  bright
Topic: Writing

I'm really up on my blogs these days, and i hope you all can keep up with me! I discovered a new blog by recommendation of one of my FAVORITE blogs (http://www.2birds1blog.com). 

Meet "I Hate My 9 to 5" {http://ihatemy9to5.com/

This is an anonymous collection of horror stories from the workplace. Think of it as sort of an, eff my life—work edition. And boy, is it hilarious.

Let me give you an example.

June 23, 2010:

Today my boss called me to go over and pick apart a simple spreadsheet I had created line by line just to make me feel stupid. She asked me questions that she knew I knew the answers to. I hate her.

And another.

Email from our unpaid intern...

"Hey man to be honest with you I partied too much this weekend and I got sick. I'm feeling like shit. I don't think I'll make it in tomorrow, but I should definitely be feeling better by Thursday. Hope all is well"

And one more, just for good measure.

April 2, 2010:

Exactly at 2pm, I place one hand on my keyboard, on hand on the mouse, skillfully position my head and take a nice hour nap in my cubicle. Most days, I wake up and my screen saver is on...I'm sure some passing by has witnessed this very natural activity.

 

Do you love it, or do you love it? What are your work horror stories?
