Can one count killing office-mates as self-defence?
Given that I'm likely to kill myself if not......

Slightly mad Ukrainian office-mate is getting worse. She has been complaining about her eyes for a couple of months - we have told her to see an optician a few million times...

Finally this afternoon she agreed that she needed to see one, given that she's out of the office tomorrow morning she agreed that that would be a sensible time - however nothing is quite that simple.

Making the appointment took a 2 minute telephone call, getting round to it (faffing, procrastination, shrieking &c.) took at good half hour, plus involved somebody else finding the optician's address and telephone number on the internets and printing it out.

I'm off to hide under my desk for the rest of the afternoon.

1. No killing, sorry, of anyone.
Especially of TJ. Sorry for the madness at work. Sounds like self-perpetuating drama on her part. Is she one of the three Macbethians or is she outside the coven?

It is a shame she is having her appointment when she would be out of the office anyway. I think from now on, she should schedule those during her work hours to give you a break. I remember this is not the first time she has acted up.

3. She does have a tendancy to be a bit loony.
She's not one of the 3 witches, she doesn't like bitching about folk.

This means that she'll be out of the office all morning tomorrow, and she's out on Thursday too. :bounce:

The most irritating/amusing was when somebody was helping her to use eBay :scared:
