'Hey, how come you weren't at the very important meeting?' is the adult version of 'That party was amazing. You totally should’ve been there.’

The answer to both is and always has been: because no one invited me or even told me it was happening.

#OfficePolitics #ImNotCool

I've finally been able to nag the office to pay the $15 to replace the flipper rubbers on the office pinball machine! A win at last!

#pinball #cheapasses #officepolitics

I am not surprised with the request to change the tone of the message. #officepolitics is still not my thing.

After what I've had to endure in my time I will never, ever, work in another office again. It's not worth the frustration, it's not worth the exhaustion, it's not worth the shit wages, it's not worth the excessive workload, it's not worth the stress, it's not worth the sacrifice of a home life, it's not worth the sacrifice of my mental health, it's not worth the sacrifice of my confidence, it's not worth the sacrifice of my self-esteem, it's not worth the clinical depression.

Office jargon mastered, I have. Thinking outside the box, we must, yet trapped in cubicles, we remain. Irony, strong in this realm. #CorporateLife #OfficePolitics #CubicleWisdom #BitBook

Good #morning friends 💕:blobfoxcofecute: 💕

Yesterday was a hard day on the #work front… I’d been away just long enough to forget about #OfficePolitics but they’re still here, right where I left them :revblobfoxupsidedown:

This week, I’m glad it’s #Friday. How are y’all today??

Mr Short was absolutely #livid. Productivity was one thing, but to be shown up in such a way by junior staff! So an excel function could do in thirty seconds what took him six hours, so what? There was only one option — kill everyone who had witnessed this witchcraft.

Well, thank God nothing like that ever happened in real life. Or could happen. Not even a little bit. Anyway, totally unrelated topic: just wanted to say how much I love doing gig work for large corporations. Being creative, even when they try to cut my fee, is its own reward. I know this because my clients tell me my job is so much fun on a daily basis.

Reminder for office ladies, don’t be the women in the boys club. Trust me, it’s not worth it and if the ship goes down you are going down first. #officepolitics

It's always fun when you start a status report to your manager with "Well, 'angry' is a strong word. I'm not angry, but..." and by the end of it you punctuate your thoughts with "You know what? I *am* angry! How the fuck did we end up here?"

Bonus points if they commiserate and promise to take your grievances up the chain rather than being annoyed by the swearing.

Me internally screaming...."We have used the same document for 20 years" is NOT a good reason to keep using it. It is misleading garbage!

Me actually speaking....the document has lead to significant errors but your department your rules.

And ... one more staff member in that department out on stress leave. 😬 Sure am glad that I never applied for that job.

I told a colleague they were a "screw down the intake manifold" by their reaction, they'd obviously never worked on a car before! #officepolitics

As a #productmanager I sometimes get feelings of "the grass is greener" and begin to envy my #engineering counterparts, who I imagine have it simpler, having fewer meetings, less #officepolitics, less #stakeholder bullshit, and more "heads down work." Moreover, they get the satisfaction of actually #building things and objective feedback.

But then I remember I am good at my job and #dev is really hard.

I'm curious: do #softwareengineer feel the same thing, in reverse?
