When you call him just say "Hey this is Mrs. Gooch and (insert boss's name) wondered if you wouldn't mind providing us with updated contact info in case any strictly professional, non Pound Town work opportunities should arise in the future."

Hey guys I just called him and he gave me all his info and it wasn't weird at all.

Except at the end he said something about the next time I am in Seattle we can take a drive to Chanute, so I don't know what that's about.

Is there a Chanute in Washington?

There are pregnant women, so I'd assume so.

How in the world is asking for someone's updated work contact info creepy?

No, I am supposed to ask for his personal contact info and also find out where he is going. I don't know it just seems really nosy and stuff. I'm not very good at networking, obviously.

So your boss who would potentially be making an employment offer to him won't contact him himself?

Yesterday we got yelled at for being on the Internet. Not because we should be working, but because my boss is afraid we will get viruses.

This should really go in the hilarious things thread but it is related to the annoying things.

I just got a marketing email from a company offering to give me IT and HR contacts.

He even said, "You all have iphones. If you want to be on the internet use your iphone." I refrained from pointing out that most of us have Androids.

We have a guy working off site today, and I needed to email him some files. The file size exceeded our Microsoft Exchange limit so I had to send them from my personal gmail account (while on the internet!!!).

The mens bathroom urinal is like little kid height and also very poorly designed. The angle to hit the water is super awkward, but if you go for the back wall you get super splash back. Very annoying.

A colleague's last name is Ruszczyk. I deal with him/her so infrequently that when I try to email I don't know to type Rus or Ruc or Ruz to get his email to come up. It's always the last one I try. rough ridin' hate that name. For simplicity's sake he/she ought to be forced to change his/her name.

No, he should just leave a samurai sword with it when he leaves the office on Friday. At least let it die with honor.

My company has a 1GB limitation, and the reason is because we lost a lawsuit over some old emails one time, so they don't want us to keep them around (this is what I have been told).
