I use Gmail personally, and once I figured out what labels were are and how they worked, I would be ecstatic if we ever switched. Outlook is ok, but lately it's been giving me headaches.

I don't think I've heard that before in my life...

Yeah, I am hyper-organized with my email discipline. It makes life so much easier.I use Gmail personally, and once I figured out what labels were are and how they worked, I would be ecstatic if we ever switched. Outlook is ok, but lately it's been giving me headaches.

Every. Freaking. Day.I hear it all the time in our meetings when the end early.... you can have X minutes back in your day blah blah blah.
Oh thanks for scheduling a meeting that very well could have been answered through e-mails.

Lol... I just got off of one 20 minutes ago. 2:30-3:30 that ended at 3:25. 'Okay, if no one else has anything, I'll go ahead and give you 5 minutes back'. Um...thanks?Every. Freaking. Day.I hear it all the time in our meetings when the end early.... you can have X minutes back in your day blah blah blah.

Best part...it was a project manager that literally introduced the meeting at the beginning, then said not a word until that little gem.

You people are insane. If getting back some of my time simply requires them saying it out loud, I’m taking that all day, every day.

Every single meeting that ends early. We have a check-in meeting at 9AM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays each week that always end early and are a colossal waste of time, and my boss always says that.people who say "we'll give you some time back" when a meeting ends early

At the Dunkin drive thru this morning, and the woman in front of me just skips the ordering screen. I figure she has a mobile order, even though you're supposed to let them know. There are two cars in front of her. She gets to the window and then proceeds to place her entire order, at the **** window. Multiple drinks, multiple other items. And then pays in cash. She also almost hit the safety pole near the window because her SUV was parked at a 45 degree angle so that she could reach the window.

Losing the door handle end cap on the rear passenger door of my car. How does that all of the sudden just fall out?

In a similar story, guy in front of me at the NYS Thruway toll barrier in Chautauqua County westbound right before re-entering PA in the EZ Pass lane, apparently realized he was in the wrong lane (3 lanes open, only one EZ Pass), came to a complete stop, exited his car, and went to the next lane toll taker with his ticket.At the Dunkin drive thru this morning, and the woman in front of me just skips the ordering screen.

Dude you're gonna get a violation in the mail anyway, just freaking drive! Toll taker was screaming at him
To my credit I didn't honk at him but I did ask if he was shitting me.

This time I kinda did. This was supposed to be a 1-2 meeting and I have another from 3-4 so I at least get to take a break.

The last one is mostly a cultural thing for POC.
Using mad in that way is just how us old people talk sometimes. It's our word. **** off.
