Shit that annoys you

This guy is likely annoyed, as is his former employer

Assholes who pitch their road sodas in the ditch.

Snowbanks melted out today, bud heavy, twisted tea and founders tall boy seemed to be the beer of choice last winter. Not to mention the paper plates from the local gas station and occasional glad containers.

Fucking contractors are building million dollar houses and apparently don't know how to use a trashcan. I'm half tempted to gather it all up, along with the foam insulation scraps they let blow out of their trailer, and return it to the site. Got to time it when the homeowner is around, the GC is probably the one pitching the founders.

If I pass a construction site walking the dog she immediately starts searching the grounds for lunch scraps and rarely comes up empty.

Exactly. Dog tries to eat everything that remotely smells like food out there. I start d making piles as I walk, but this weekend I'll make a run in the truck and fill a can.

Spring is annoying, in terms of trash (and dog shit) emerging from the snow banks.

Couple weeks back we were having lunch in the lot and some guy was letting his dog run a bit. His dog ran up the cutbank of the cat road and dropped a deuce. I watched the guy fish a bag out of his pocket but then he looked around and decided no one saw it so he’d just leave it. This is an area where kids slide and play all the time and an exit to the lot that gets skied all the time.

Guy gets the leash on his dog and starts walking back to his car. I walk over and ask him if he’s going to pick up his dog shit. He said he would if it wasn’t up on the hill( like ten steps up from the cat road). I told him that kids play all over the hill and that we ski it all the time. He gets indignant and says “Well if you’re going to be an asshole, I guess I’ll pick it up”.

My son's Bernese can't shit on the side of the road during a walk like a normal dog. Has to plow up or down a steep hill through mud or snow or dust to do it. I've been tempted to not pick up a couple of times but these are shits that can be seen from space so I pick them up. This is a dog that otherwise couldn't be bothered to get up off the floor if a burglar broke in.

My dog has to crap on one specific lawn. He'll crap all over our fenced in back yard. He'll crap in the woods on a hike. But if you take him down the sidewalk, he has to crap in this one particular place. And those people get really bitchy about. It's like the little fucker knows.

Nobody cares to put in an effort anymore these days. Jobs are just that, a job. Pride in ones work seems to be a thing of the past. It’s just a paycheck.

What came first? Companies not giving a shit about the employees... or the employees not giving a shit about the company?

Not where I was going with this.
Giving a shit comes from within. People have given up on themselves. It shows.

I know what you mean, but I had a refreshing break from that yesterday. I had a 2 person crew in, replacing window glass that was fogged between the panes because the seal broke. One of the replacement pieces had a couple small light scratches and a bit of dust inside. I probably wouldn’t have noticed until maybe later when I went to wash them, but the crew jefe was pissed at the fabricators, saying he hated it when the job wasn’t perfect. Also because they couldn’t see it until it was installed and cleaned. And they were really careful about working in and around the flower beds. I was impressed at the pride he took in his work. OTOH now they have to come back with the replacement, which annoys me.

I work for a big company.... I get way too many emails like everyone, but TURN OFF THE F'ing Yammer/Teams/Kool-Aide BS trying to force some corp culture and especially out of my email inbox. I really really don't give a flying fuck about your fucking cat's birthday on a yammer channel that then ends up in my email inbox!!! That's not creating corporate culture it's wasting my time (which should be done here or other area of my choosing)!!! Spent better part of an hour trying to find the notifications section in yammer, instead had to create an auto delete outlook rule.

[frorider]

Always wondered what marketing dumbass came up with the Yammer name. Guess their second choice was Drivel.

Open carry dicks in the grocery store when getting a CCL in this state is pretty easy. This isn’t ‘Nam!

First thing I did at my last few jobs was turn off all the pop ups, dings and alerts for Outlook and Teams. Everything that is more than a one off gets a rule assigned, especially all the garbage distribution lists. Holy shit the stuff that comes through.

If I didn’t need to be in my email so often referencing attachments and conversations I would have Outlook off 80% of the day. Guy named Cal Newport wrote a book about email. Apparently we on average check our inbox every 6 mins. Speculates that “solving” email is a multi billion dollar business.

But instead they invented slack, Teams, yammer which are just worse in every way from a productivity and distraction standpoint.
