I'd like to preface this by saying I'm normally a very gentile, caring person. I'm a genuine nice guy, as evidenced by my habitually finishing last. That being said, some of you may be aware that I work with Joe, the world's most painfully annoying person. I do not say that lightly. He has earned the title, believe me.

He has nicknames for everbody, like the copy-room guy from Saturday Night Live. We have a client named Dara and every time... every time he says her name, he refers to her as "Dara Dingle."

Then there's Lindsey Knox. Every time her name is mentioned, like clockwork he'll say "Lindsey's got big knockers!" in a sing-song "Ring Around the Rosey" voice. Wow. Sexist and unfunny.

One woman's last name is Holmes, who according to Joe, is John Holmes' wife. Not only is that not funny, but that burns the unsavoy image of Joe watching porn into my poor innocent retinas. He doesn't even try to change it up, you know, like by sometimes saying "Sherlock's daughter" or something. It's always "John Holmes' wife."

There's more, so help me God, there's more. Like the voices. He thinks he can do voices. Rich Little would be spinning in his grave if he were dead. And he takes our names and incorporates them into whatever song is playing on the radio. Not only does he apparently think this is clever, but he thinks it continues to be so after doing it several times a day, every day...for TWO FRIGGIN' YEARS!

So anyway, to cope with sitting across from nature's biggest mistake (throwing staples, pens, etc. doesn't work...I've tried), I wrote some haikus. They help me relax.

I just can't stand him
always driving me insane
Joe is a douche bag

clomp clomp clomp all day
can't sit down for three seconds
nail his feet to floor

mouth won't stop flapping
dear God, why won't he shut up?
he's at it again

I know everything
I am loud and obnoxios
Dara thinks I'm great

My first wife left me
but I can't imagine why
oh that's right, I suck

Yeah, I'm not laughing at your misfortune either. But those hiakus are hysterical!

Query: Have you ever tried throwing something bigger than a pen? Picking himself off the floor after laying there unconscious for a few minutes might jar whats left of his brain and maybe he'll act normal for once.
Granted, you would have to do it all ninja-like least you be fired, but its a thought. :D

Maybe you should get everyone else in the office to start doing it to HIM.

You know.... "Hey! Joe the Schmoe."
or "Hey! It's Half-caff/Decaf Cup o' Joe."
or "Hey! Joselphish."
or "Hey! An-JO-line."

Oh, his nickname for himself (and I apologize to any gay Scapers out there) is the incredibly gay "Joe E Bear" He calls his friends on the phone and says "Hey Skippy, it's Joe E Bear..." That's a direct quote, by the way. He says he got the nickname because he was out biking in the woods and this big bear came by and...I don't know, something happened.

Everyone else here (all 3 of us) email each other about him all day. Last week when he said one of his "hillarious" takes on someone's name, I made it a point to laugh uncontrollably and very obviously unnaturally for ten minutes.

Nothing stops this guy.

If he is making sexist remarks to women in the office you should take it up with your HR person. In many companies and universities sexual harrassment is taken very seriously and will most likely get you fired. Even the hint of impropriety can get noted in your permanent record, and this guy sounds like he is way over the line. The sexist remarks don't even have to be made to a particular female, i.e. remarks made about Lindsey in front of another woman is still considered sexual harrassment, as it makes the workplace uncomfortable.

12-12-2003, 02:01 PM
That would be great...but the women I mentioned are clients, so they don't work in our building or even hear any of this stuff. The only people in the office are Joe, me, and two other guys. My company is only made up of six people, four employees and two employers. Maybe we should hire a woman so he'll say something and get fired.

mgraylorn
12-12-2003, 02:17 PM
Hiring a woman to get the guy fired might help.

Or there is always screaming, "Shut the hell up before I shove pencils into your eye sockets!"

Do your bosses know what he is doing, and do they care? If they know about it and don't care then you are SOL. If they don't know and this guy might come in contact with female clients, you might want to let them know about this behavior - he could cost the company a client(s).

Every time he starts with the name crap, just start singing, "Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Joleeeeennnnneeee...", making sure to hit the high notes. Or if asks you a question, respond with "Yes, Josephine?"

Does he ever take his shoes off at work, or slip them off and on? (I used to work with someone who did) Get a pair of identical shoes that are a half size smaller and replace them. Keep going down a half size every few days.

If all else fails, get yourself a little Dammit Doll to beat on hard surfaces.

"When you want to throw the phone or kick a chair and shout,
here's a little dammit doll you cannot do without.
Just grasp it firmly by the legs and find a place to slam it,
and as you whack its stuffing out, yell "Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!"

Joe Blow? But you could always add something to that if you get the meaning. But make sure its something or someone he hates. And get the rise out of him and use it often.

I know for a fact that laughing like that seems to make the person act even MORE annoying. Sometimes you dont think "more annoying" is possible, but then, unfortunately, they surprise you.

I think the problem is there arent a lot of you in the office and he is around all men so he thinks he's probably acting cool when in reality he isnt.

I dare you to spend five minutes with this guy, and if you haven't shoved several pens into your ears to quell the stream of spirit-breaking stupidity flowing into them from his gaping maw, then and only then do you have the right to say I'm whining.

The coworker that bitched out the mattress company? (You are GOING to love this!) She finally convinced the ppl to take the damn thing back. So.... her hubby wraps it up in plastic and sticks it in the back of the truck. On the way there, the plastic falls off the mattress, gets wrapped in the wheel well (yes, I am telling the truth) and CATCHES ON FIRE! The plastic! So the mattess gets singed!!!! And they can't return it!!!! SO she yelled for naught!!!! OMG the day cannot get better!

hey, for the record, it was unseasonibly warm (you're only a few towns away...it was 70 degrees in Weymouth) so we all wore shorts to take photos to send to my family in California, and it was only for ten minutes or so. I was sick long before that, and it went away a little, but then came back. I'd be fine when I go to bed, and then wake up sick every morning. Apparently it was pneumonia. But I'm on meds now.

Sweet valley high! Joe's trying to get me to go to his party. I'm not going I tells ya!

the following is a fictitious account of Joe-- hyperbole master extraordinaire--trying to convince me that his lame party will in fact be the shiznit, something he’s been trying to do since before Christmas

Joe: Come on, Mr. “H” (note: that’s how he refers to me in the bazillion little Post It notes he sticks all over the place; with inexplicable quotation marks around the H) I’m gonna have like 30 people at my house Saturday.

Me: Hey, that’s great. Have fun.

Joe: You have to go. There’s going to be live music! Who’s your favorite band? You know what? It doesn’t matter, ‘cause they’re all gonna be there.

Me: Geez, I’m just…I’m really busy this weekend.

Joe: There’ll be lots of cute girls there.

Me: Yeah…sure. Anyway I have a girlfriend.

Joe: Then bring her along. It’ll be fun.

Me: I…Have you even been paying attention?

Joe: You’ll be missing out…the President will be there.

Me: The president? Of what?

Joe: The United States. Yeah, we go way back. I knew “W” back when he was just “U” He’s bringing some night vision goggles. We’ll turn out the lights and wear them around the house. It’ll be cool.

Me: I don’t know…

Joe: C’mon, It’s only a few hours. Jesus will be there, healing lepers and stuff. So if you know any lepers, bring ‘em on over.

Me: I’m going to leave now.

Sorry to break haiku, but I do have to say that outside of work, Joe really isn't that bad, no stupid nicknames, no random noises, no sticking people's names into songs, no bragging about everything he's ever done, no making the "I just said something clever" face or any of the other stupid crap he does all day every day.

The wise words of Joe
Stick in your brain like earworms
Slowly melt your mind

As the saying goes
We all have a Joe to bear
or something like that

Joe E Bear...ugh....that's his nickname for himself. Here's a picture of Joe E Bear with National Fire Protection Association mascot Sparky the Fire Dog. Who, by the way, Joe sings a God-awful song about.

It's just "They call him Sparky the Fire Dog, Sparky the Fire Dog..." In the "southern" accent.

here comes Joe E Bear
Seems Sparky set him on fire
just to have some fun

Stop, drop and roll, Joe
or your fur will go up fast
let's roast marshmellows!

her name is BJ
she is on another board
she is a right b!tch

BJ likes me not /
she thinks Im the lame poseur /
she is humourless

cheerleading the right /
she argues day an night here /
what, no job for her?

Battle axe BJ /
could probably write speaches /
for ol' GW Bush

blah blah blah blah blah /
arguments go on and on /
blah blah blah blah blah



I had to post this, this womon on another site I frequent is turning into the bane of my existence over there. She is a hard right libertarian, and does not know how to show even the slightest respect for anyone who has an opinion even slightly different from hers. She's a real jerk, I wish she would just go away :(

I never go back.

I saw the Big Game.
I didn't catch halftime, though.
Heard it was nipply.
