Does anyone here refill water bottles at work?
Well it seems that my actions have caused a SECOND sign to be put up. The first had to do with getting a coffee cup from a coffee "area" for clients-it said that the coffee was only for clients, I needed a cup one day to get coffee from the guy in our area and within a week the sign said "There is NOTHING for employees here NOTHING".

Okay

Now I go over to the water cooler and see a sign about how unsanitary it is to put the mouth of a water bottle on the spigot and if need be to use the paper funnel cups as a funnel (cutting off the end).

Well I don't lick it and then rub it all over the damned thing.

I just went back by there and someone had crossed out the part about using the funnel cups as funnels and wrote "The funnel cups are NOT to be used as funnels"

I wrote (in response to the original message) "Same goes for drinking out of a water fountain....so don't do that either okay?"

This is the same area of people who once gave me a hard time for using THEIR microwave (we didn't have one then).

Geesh!

1. Someone isn't doing their JOB if they're taking time with this crap for yo
u.

That is the most asinine behavior I've ever heard of, with these signs. Sounds like they were written by a 6th grade girl in the "popular" clique.

I'm so irritated just reading it, sorry you have to actually put up with the freaks who find that acceptable work behavior.

3. I used to
But now I try not to use bottled watter at all anymore and just use a glass. But those people at your work are insane. At our water cooler, I have seen actual LIPSTICK on the spigot. No one put a sign up about that.

6. Thank you for making that clear
LOL

I saw a rerun of Keving Spacey on "Inside the Actopr's STudio" last week and he talked about how GlennGaryGlennRoss was his first big movie-the entire time that incredible cast of actors hated him and were calling him every name in the book to his face. I had never thought about that before. He said he was depressed the entire time.
