Another thing I hate is guys that drive nice, fast sports cars … 10-20 miles per hour below the speed limit. These guys kill me.

Thing I hate #412: Annoying speakerphone etiquette
// November 15th, 2006 // 1 Comment » // Uncategorized
I love speakerphones. The ones we have where I work are surprisingly good. What I hate is when a co-worker down the hall is calling someone, leaves the phone on speaker while dialing, and lets it ring and ring and ring for 2 minutes.
Hey, genius, if they’re not gonna answer in the first minute, they’re not bloody likely to answer in the second minute either. And, if I can hear it all the way down the hall, you can turn it down some.
Rant completed. (On the bright side, my team is moving buildings soon, and I will no longer be down the hall from the same people as I currently am.)
Today’s Grammar Rant: Rogue is not the same as Rouge

The title says it all:
I don't know how many times I see this at work, when someone is talking about a rogue (unapproved) network device. I really don't think people here are concerned with red network devices.
Reason #342 to Hate Apartment Life

Reason #342: The guy, two floors below you, that's running his charcoal grill and smoking you out of house and home (unit B304, I'm looking at you). All this while everyone's got their windows & doors open to get some ventilation.
Glad to be moving next week!
