smackdown at the o.k. office corral

okay, so here's the thing. someone's ticking me off today. no, don't worry. its not you. this time. its this guy across the hall.

see, all the doors in the offices up front stay open when you open them. except for the door to the office i work in. one of the supervisors removed some spring-a-ma-jig and voila! door closes! take that all you annoying people who like to poke your heads and bother us with your nonsense chatter!

they also rigged it so that if someone wants to keep the door open, they can open it all the way, wedging the door up against a big-ass file cabinet. if there's a lot of in and out traffic, its handy to have it stay open. but that's not its default location. the default location is closed. i like it that way because my back is to the door, directly in front of it. and anyone walking by can see me messing around on the internet. having the door closed gives me a second to ALT+TAB to another screen. very handy. also very nerve wracking. but hey, i like living on the edge.

the thing that's ticking me off is this: Mr. Dopey, some supervisor who's office is across the hall, comes over to our office, opens the door, wedges it open agaist the file cabinet, and walks in. that's fine. dandy even. he talks with someone, conducts some work business. then leaves.

does he close the door behind him? that's a big fat NOOOOOOOO!

how rude. you saw the door closed when you came in. how hard is it to put it back where you found it?

he must have been a little boy.

so anyway. it was a no biggie. it was annoying, but then the door was closed and we all move on.

a couple hours later, mr. dopey opens the door and wedges it against the file cabinet. i turn to see who's there. he reads one of the notices pushpinned to the FRONT of the door, then leaves. he wedges the door open, reads something for five seconds, the walks way. just freakin walks away without closing the damn door!

WTF??? CAN YOU NOT READ THE FREAKIN DOOR WHILE IT'S CLOSED??? YOU HAVE TO WEDGE IT OPEN BEFORE YOUR DUMB ASS CAN MAKE SENSE OF IT??? THIS IS NOT YOUR OFFICE MORON!!! STOP MESSING WITH IT!!!!!! GO AWAY OR I SHALL TAUNT YOU A SECOND TIME!! OR A FIRST TIME TO YOUR ACTUAL FACE.

::sigh::

okay. i think i'm over it now. i also think its time i go eat something. before i start going crazy or something.
