I work in a grade school, so this would just stress out the custodian and inspire distracting fart jokes by students
IronicJeremyIrons
Too short even with stand- worked at UPS filling overnight trailers. I couldn't even reach the top to fill even with the 'load stand'

For real. The type of people cooking, fish, broccoli, fucking quiches in the office microwave are the worst. Fuckin Debra.
Corrodias
I don't get it. Broccoli and brussels sprouts (both cabbage cultivars) don't make any odd or powerful scents that I'm aware of when cooked.
SMODomite
Both broccoli and brussels sprouts often smell like farts when they are cooked. Not an office friendly food
Corrodias
Hmm. I had no idea. I wonder whether this varies by preparation or by people's ability to detect it, like asparagus.
BeatrixBeaverhousen
I think if you roast, bake, or grill them they’re fine, but steamed, especially in the microwave, it’s like sulfur mixed with farts.
Corrodias
Bizarre! I've had Bird's Eye microwavable bags of them with zero issues that I've noticed, but I may simply be unable to smell it.

Moved in with my manager. Turned out to be the best decision I ever made though.

Didn't return after tea break

This dude complained, "Is this the job I applied for?" (It was) before never coming back. Grand sum 90 minutes worked.

I have done that before. Boss Critizied/bollocked me on the shop floor in front of customers and staff which you can't do under uk law 1/2
jaffa5
Worse was that i hadn't fucked up the office guy did i got the blame. Sent my boss a link to the laws she had broken on uk gov site.
jaffa5
I also got bollocked on shop floor for pointing out our fire extinguishers where the wrong kind which was part of my job. boss was a cunt.

If you want to cook sprouts deliciously, roughly chop and stir-fry them. Fucking delicious.
cattingtons
I had a nervous breakdown

From the deadly viper assassination squad office?
CloudCider
I swear it was unloaded.
thoushaltnotpass
There was a lady (we called her the fish lady) who was heating fish in the floor's kitchen's microwave every week. It smelled bad.

Can't figure out basic excel (seriously...I fired someone today, and this was one of the reasons)
CrissCross35
Shouldnt it have been brought up during the interview if it's so important to know excel that you'd get fired for not knowing how to use it?
LilSis061016
It was on his resume, and brought up in 2 interview rounds. The job description has it as an "intermediate to advanced" skill requirement.
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
It pains me when people can't figure out basic Excel. It's such a lovely tool and will make your job so much easier.
IAmTheBadW01f
Screw the job, it makes my life easier!
ThisGuyHere
I just never had to use it before. I know how Microsoft programs work though, so kinda faked it till I made it and learned on the job.
LilSis061016
HOW did you learn? Did you figure it out on your own, or go to your boss and ask her to explain how to sort filtered data alphabetically?
ThisGuyHere
I had a few things explained like vlookup, but it was mostly straightforward. It was just a matter of actually spending time in the program.
LilSis061016
Yeah....vlookup is about 6 levels higher than what I need someone to be able to do. :)
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
From the Excel files I've come across... Too powerful in the hands of mortals
valen00
Excel is a great way of re-inventing the database.
LilSis061016
It's not the vest tool for databasing, but if no one will invest in Access, it's a solution
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
Or a portable platform that has support for UI, backend and business logic.
LilSis061016
I love excel, and probably make it do too much (since no one will buy me Access). He didn't know how to sort, color cells, or add rows.
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
Conditional coloring is where the action is at.
LilSis061016
Agreed. This table is gray until you input data, which confused him. Then I suggested coloring A col cells to mark completed rows...chaos.
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
Screw A col cells. Let's have the whole row colored once and only once every required field is filled. =D

Excel is garbage and grossly over used by people too incompetent to use a database.

I don't think I'll ever understand why in the US people can be fired on the spot and oftentimes without reason. Where is the benefit?
jackpkmn
Because holding onto employees that don't contribute harms the company.
LilSis061016
Exactly. He was hired to help me with work overload, but I was spending extra time training him to do things he said he knew.
LilSis061016
1. He was a contractor, so we just "aren't continuing his contract." 2. Bc he was a drain on company resources and wouldn't work long term.
DubhIainn
Thank you for your answer. I however wasn't talking about this case specifically.. The whole concept of "Employment at Will" confounds me.
LilSis061016
You can be fired without cause, but it typically doesn't happen because people can sue, requesting cause. It's a weird legal situation.
Oleur
I can excel in excel and need a job. You hiring?
mmmcunty
I'm certified in excel 07 13 & 16 hire me instead
LilSis061016
We're changing the position to fully replace me instead. So if you want to be a Technical Proposal Writer for a biopharma company, sure.

Guess he didn't excel in that job...
