For me it is the temperature sensitive wide format printers i use, if they go below 71f, the colors begin to drop out and bigass banding occurs.

There are two unpleasant people who go out of their way to make things difficult for me. I have learned to deal with them and often just feel pity that they feel so threatened by my awesomeness they have to act like jerks.
Otherwise, my job is awesome and I often walk around with a smile on my face and think how lucky I am to work where I do.

Geez, you'd think if someone was going to throw other people under the bus for raisins, he'd at least do it for good raisins. Like golden raisins. Mmmmmmm.

I don't think there's anything I hate about where I work. I get annoyed occasionally, but it's all little stuff.

Edit: I CHANGED MY MIND- I totally despise the content management system we use for our websites. IT IS SLOW AND NON-INTUITIVE AND IT SUCKS.

Parking at this building is pretty bad. The entire lot is full by 7:15am on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

There are things I hate more than the parking situation, but I won't say them here.

That I can't really stay here more than four or five years -- it's a great place to work, but I've already been here two years, and from our pipeline of incoming projects I can see that I'm probably going to have to bail in a couple more years if I don't want to stagnate.

Parking... if I leave for lunch I better be back before 12:50 or the parking garage is stuffed to the hilt.

Not enough women on my floor (engineering). Lots of hot chicks around but on other floors (HR, finance, receptionists, etc).

The lady that sits across from me that talks to her kids twelve times a day. Every time they have an argument with their father or their brother or their sister.. They call her at work and she sits on the phone for half an hour working it out.

You would think they were all twelve years old, but they are 16 and 18.

They aren't going to be able to handle anything themselves in the real world.

My GM people like him in management are one of the reasons unions where formed and still exist.

I have learned the truth of working in a "free will" state, especially as a lowly hourly worker.

I used to despise unions now, although I am not a 100% supporter but I do see why they form and retain members.

You would think working in a cleanroom environment making computer chips would be totally awesome and all that...

...except we have to kiss the ass of the Technology Development people and do things their way because they create the wafer fabrication process, and they are a bunch of anal engineers (think Sheldon on Big Bang Theory - VERY smart, all of them have PhDs, but completely ignorant on how to treat humans) -- engineers who think the techs (who also went to school, they just don't have PhDs) are stupid and have no useful input.

I knew you were going to say that. tongue


Are you my 17 year old know-it-all coworker? If so, are you still mad at me for telling your little sister I didn't like her crappy attitude?




Her attitude is fine, I think, *know, you are the problem. tongue [/quote]

Mature. Talk about her behind her back instead of to her face. lol

Everything is one thing, right?

I worked as a comm/electronic tech stationed with force warfare (a part of Navair doing R&D) and some of those egg heads where super intelligent but stupid at the same time.

like this one radar engineer could look at the card of a system he designed and tell you what every component did, but wore strap up or slip on shoes. I was told he couldnt tie shoes I dont know if that was true or not.

Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.
