Pet Peeves

When your Boss says "Lets Roll" it makes me want to kill someone.

I get really annoyed when James comes up with a better one than I could.

Way to go bro!

I hate people who think they have Zero acountability for their stupidity and always put the blame on something/Someone else.

I agree but I had nothing to do with that...

Crikey, I had a boss who did that all the time after 911. GRRRR so annoying.

My pet peeve is people who say "we need to..." or "we should..." or "we ought to" but in reality they have no intention of being productively involved in any project.

I work with an individual like this.

every day, he has a big new idea (and ironically he is the one person in the position to make all of these big new ideas a reality) but he is always saying...

"We should ______" just fill in the blank. Name it... build a new awning onto the front of the business, open a new venue to raise public awareness, have some sort of special event etc etc.

however, he never has anything else to say on the matter beyond "we should" or "we need to.." etc.

we call this person "we we" as his nick name

oddly enough he is in JUST the appropriate position if "authority" to make all of these "we need" statements occur within a matter of days if he had the proper motivation.

one such "we we" moment is a local venue to be constructed that has been discussed time and time again.

The money is in place

the building materials are in place

the people who know how to run and manage it are all in place

but for 18 months now all we get is the occasional "We really need do that."

perhaps he doesnt realize that he is the individual with the final go no-go decision?! and the minute he says "Go" he would have a dozen eager people on the project immediately!

Here's mine: People who wait till the cashier gives them a total to get their checkbook out of their purse and start filling in the check. Guess it should be people that pay at the grocery store with a check period because they almost all wait till they have the total to get the checkbook out of the purse.
