chomping...

[kll]

This new guy is sitting next to me in a cubicle. He's rumored to be a "drinker" and wreaks of cologne after lunch, when he supposedly goes to drink. He went for training and one of the receipts for his expense report had $50 worth of liquor on it (for 4 days of training!) although he wasn't trying to get reimbursed for that.

Last week he sent me an email telling me that my gum chomping was driving him crazy and to please stop.

Today he told me that my keyboard typing was driving him crazy and to please stop.

We've co-existed in this office for only 2 1/2 days and he's already a bitch.


What to do!

[ScarySquirrel]

Murder.

[na§tee]

tell him to fucking SPEAK to you, not email. god. that is seriously one of my pet peevs. people just don't communicate anymore.. such bad office practice.

he sounds like wanker numero uno. tell him his dangerous alcohol habit annoys the hell out of you if he does it again. is he your senior or not? fuck it, do it either way.

gum chewing is pretty annoying, though

gum chewing is pretty annoying, though
and i don't disagree... i get carried away WHEN i do have gum and then i'm very apologetic and will get rid of it immediately...

my problem with him is that it appears that he's annoyed by any sounds...


and is just a bitch.


and no, he's not my senior... just works for a different department, but happens to sit next to me.


god, i miss the days when i had a private office...

[b i o n i c]

ask him to put in the request to IT for you, a quiet-touch keyboard. and offer to not chew gum if he agrees to not pollute your space with his cheap cologne... you've got allergies after all, right?

[ericlee]

How dare you make his pounding hangover headache worse.

[alruggs]

what the crazy? are you supposed to stop typing?

[Kid Presentable]

$50 dollars for 4 days is fuck all. Am I missing something?

[ScarySquirrel]

I still say that homicide is the best option here. There really is no other alternative to settle this without still having to deal with the buffoon.

[skinnybutphat]

You should start coughing when he pops in. Stop typing like a maniac as well.

[HEIRESS]

I fucking hate horses who chomp at the bit

so annoying while riding

kick him in the nuts

[Otis Driftwood]

First, steal his juice. Then hammer on the keyboard like crazy. If he complains just ask him "Don't you like the sound of work, boozo?"

Btw: you could "chomp" me any time!

[Videodrome]

sounds like homicide could really be your best option.

I would respond with a Lil Jon style "OKAAAAAY!" via email with a jpeg attachment of Lil Jon for a visual reference. I would then proceed to chew the gum as fast as humanly possible and only type with the QWE and UIO keys in the same manner.

Problem solved.

Also, please forward these emails to your superior if they persist. Harassment case!

[Genocide Tulips]

Tell him your gum chewing and "loud typing" is the results of recovering from alcoholism.

hahahah... that's rad too...



The gum chewing isn't a problem for me, as I'm not really a gum chewer - only after like a sushi lunch or somethin'...

the typing is going to be another issue...


Is there really such thing as a quieter keyboard? *gullible*

[Otis Driftwood]

I know this girl who has the response level of her keyboard down pat. Types almost inaudible and durn fast.

[kll]

.."Woah! Damn! Who used a whole bottle of Sex Panther?"

Your funniest post ever.

[abcdefz]

Hey.... you guys? Can you keep it down? All the typing going on in this thread is kinda.... I'm trying to work.

Adjust your windows settings so everytime an event occurs it will give off a "ball in hole" sound...

[zorra_chiflada]

we used to have a really loud keyboard on this computer actually, me and joe kept getting pissed off at each other because of the loud typing when we were trying to watch telly. there was no possible way to type quietly on it. we ended up buying a quieter one.

[beastiegirrl101]

Maybe your pressing to hard? There was this girl who used to work here who would slam her fingers on the keyboard.

the gum thing...I have been "talked to" about that too...they call me Connie Cannoli at work when I chew gum, I get all in the zone and start snapping and popping, yea its annoying. When I was younger my mom would just put her hand by my mouth and be like, "SPIT IT OUT NOW NATALIE"

[kll]

ugg.....you and kll probably pee in the shower too.

i don't shower with natalie
