Workplace lazyness

Postby jax archillies » Tue Mar 25, 2008 6:03 pm

so, what have you seen at your workplace that qualifies as Workplace laziness, or incompetency.

just today i saw, and im not kidding, 6 people trying to change a emergency crash bar on the main office tryign to change the lock. they got halfway though and are now sitting in my office "jabberjawing" abtou how the spiders and froggies down in the drainage ditch scare them and they dont want to work down there.

also seen students knocking on the locked door, and waitign more than 30 minutes for someone not to open it, instead of walking the remaining 10 feet to a door thats actually open. EDIT: that number has now grown to 10, to include 2 supervisors. but the work being done is the same. 1 person is working. but everyone is crowding the one door.

so...what are your stories?

(now they are talking about adding guitar hero to the Dells for 20 bucks)

I got one for you.

I do service work on Camera and Card Access systems. I am in the Security room next to a dispatcher. She was trying to get a hold of a facilities guy. She calls once rings and rings. I notice him and four other guys on one of the monitors. The dispatcher brings it up on the big monitor. Now she calls again, he picks up the phone looks at it and puts it away. She is mad now. Calls again he answers this time. "Oh I am sorry I was in a meeting" .

The Dispatcher called him out on it. She asked him if he could come up to the security office when he is done. And by the way can you tell Tommy too since he stand right next to you.

The Guy took the phone from his ear paused and then looked at the camera above his right shoulder. "OK" click

Don't take this the wrong way Jay...But it's a damn shame you have a job. There was no security when I went to high school...heck there were'nt any hall monitors either. What a shame our kids have to deal with security. :(
