I can't stand


Boys r us wrote: the people that I work with..really, I can't!!

So today is a special day in our office, one of our co-worker's who has been out from work for a couple of months dealing with cancer has come back to work and he's Italian, so we're having an Italian Food Day...I made lasagna and everyone else was going to bring in something to go along with it.
and..it's Boss's day..so I got elected to go get flowers for both of our bosses!

So last night, i got the flowers and the stuff to make the lasagna...spent 96 bucks of MY money and everyone agreed to donate money today to help pay for them..well some people have given me $1 ..heck one girl..who likes to pride herself as being 'better than you' gave .80cents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah, I just spent 70 bucks on flowers for OUR BOSS and you contribute 80 CENT?
So whatever..I've collected like 15 bucks!

and these same people..Didn't bring anything in for food day..nada..zip zilch..but they'll be the first ones in line to eat the food the rest of us slaved over making!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I would be sooooo pissed! Oh the joys of working with others!! I hated it! I'm my own boss now (and everyone else's) laugh.gif

Seriously I wouldn't put their names on the flowers OR give them any food. .80 CENTS?!?!?!!? That's just crazy! mad.gif

Kaitlin'smom replied: .80 How rude I would deffinaltly make it know that she gave a whoel .80 cents to the casue many thatwill make her imbarrased and eve a $1 is lame, come one at least $5 or more. Sorry you have such rude people. I work in a small office, so we dont have thoes issues.

My2Beauties replied: I'm so sorry you have such rude people that work there. We did stuff for boss's day today and everyone contributed at least $5 and we have a going away party for another girl today and same thing $5, I can't believe she gave 80 cents!!!! The nerve of her! I like the here is your 80 cents worth of lasagna remark! That would be a good one.

A&A'smommy replied: OMG yeah I would have to agree that she would only get a TINY drop of sauce on her plate if that!! mad.gif

Josie83 replied: That's so rude. Who would DO that? I would raise hell about that if I were you!! xx

MomofJandB replied: That is unbelievable!!! I can't believe people! First in line for a hand out but aren't willing to donate for a cause! Too bad you don't have a separate room and a checklist like getting into a popular bar on TV shows. "no, i'm sorry, your not on the list" and turn them away!

kimberley replied: ohmy.gif omg! that is unbelievable! do they really think $1 will cover lasagne and two flower arrangements?!?! come on! i would have said something... but that is just me. i have the tendency to overreact. blush.gif i would call a meeting and make everyone give me enough money to cover the stuff plus a few extra dollars for my trouble rolling_smile.gif
