I like my job.

I really do.

It pays well, I have great benefits and health insurance and whatnot.

It allows me to use my critical thinking and problem solving skills on a daily basis.

But GOD DAMN I'm having a really hard time tolerating (most of) my co-workers.

It's a small, family run (not my family) business, and the two brothers that own the company fight over EVERYTHING like brothers do. They are also VERY conservative, and VERY political, and have no issues discussing it, whether you want to hear it or not.

One sales guy does nothing but walk laps around the office, showing people photos and videos of his grandchildren. Problem with that is, he shows each person individually. So by the time he gets to my desk, it's the 8th time I heard the HYSTERICAL story of his grandson at the beach yelling "Shark!" because he dropped his shark toy, but all the people panicked because they thought there was an actual shark in the water!

ABSOLUTELY HYSTERICAL I TELL YOU.

OK. Rant over. Just needed to vent. Thank you all.

Speaking as a sales goon, you can tell him to fuck off. We're equipped for it.

One? Yes. I'd love to.

Do I want to hear the video from a distance 8 times before you show it to me, while also hearing your narrative of what is happening in the video 8 times, despite the fact that I actually have eyes and can see what is happening in the video?

No.

No John, her name is actually 'Lizzo', not 'Izzo'. And yes, I heard her new song (that came out 4 months ago).
And yes, it's wild how she's a larger girl but thinks she's sexy.
No, I don't really have an opinion on it, she can think whatever she wants.
Oh, shame you think she's ugly, I'm sure she's very upset about it.

Oh, yeah, I still have 7 accounts I have to balance before I leave today.
Crazy how I haven't gotten them done yet. It's almost like something beyond my control interrupts my workflow and I have to stop what I'm doing every 40 minutes.

He has.

Close to 30 years.

And I kinda feel bad for him, which is what's stopping me from telling him to just blow off.

He's been divorced forever, and other than the 20 minute facetime conversation he has with his daughter and grandkids every night, he really has no one else to talk to once he gets home from work. So he brings ALL the stories into work instead.

BUT... he's also one of those guys that doesn't have a conversation, he's the kinda guy that's just waiting for his turn to tell you how much better his version of whatever conversation you're having is.

Went to a ballgame this weekend? He has a story about when he met Nolan Ryan or some shit like that.
