My wife has had 3 meetings and will have at least two more about a 10 minute presentation/slide deck. Not me, but I find this hilarious.

She didn’t think it was that funny.

It is crazy, but I do think that the culture of meetings in these places is completely insane and could easily be fixed.

Sad thing is ppl call these work meetings when everyone knows in the back of their minds they'll just bullshit meetings that have no purpose.

Theory: it takes a certain kind of person to send read receipt requests with literally every email.
I’ve never once sent a read receipt and those that request them should be tarred and feathered in the town square

I can say with 100% certainty that I would not irl like a person that sends read receipt requests on emails.

That is sociopath behavior
I have a person who regularly sets his email importance level set to red exclamation point which is also sociopath behavior

There is a guy that just started about a month ago. He looks like he could comfortably wear a size M polo shirt, but I swear all of his are XXL. He's like the MC Hammer of polo shirts.

At work this past week there were snacks in the break room and only had lukewarm concession nacho cheese, but there was a bottle of Tapatio. So I hit the tortillas with the Tapatio.

This guy sees it and asks me “is that a detroit thing?”

I think it's funny to respond to pretty mundane emails with 'oh hell yeah', every once in a while.  Like the other day someone emailed me that they had shared a google Doc with me.

It's hilarious to me but I don't know if anyone else thinks it is or they might just think I'm weird.

I started a new job in the middle of last year, and it's not a job that I've ever intended on staying for a long period of time, so I've put zero effort into getting to know people or introducing myself, so whenever I talk to someone new, I give them a different name every time.  It's my own fun little game.

Would be fun to give them your real name, but then make up different "but my friends call me" names.

i just skip that part!  i introduced myself as James to someone yesterday, and Steven today.  Neither of those names are even close to me name.  It makes me laugh inside.  :ROFL:

My BFF from kstate is retiring at the end of this month after 30+ years with the same company.  It is a huge company.  Today they had his retirement lunch.  This evening he texted me this...

Funny retirement lunch story. Sitting around telling stories and three guys I don't recognize stroll in. They grab some food and sit down. One of them asks "where is the man of the hour." I say that's me.  They respond, we are in the wrong room. There was another retirement luncheon across the hall.

Now the really funny kicker. One of them signed my retirement picture. Happy retirement Greg.

My friends name is David.
