 Posted: 08:01 - 19 Aug 2009 Post subject: Just been pulled into the manager's office... |
 |
|
And now I'm absolutely pissing myself!!
It seems a colleague or 2 have complained that when I'm sat at my desk I have a habit of 'jiggling' my legs making the desks attached to mine vibrate!
I can understand why this would annoy people, and it's just a habit I've got into that I don't even realise I'm doing at the time. What I find hilarious though is how they can't possibly tell me to my face and have to go crawling to management to sort it out. I don't think I'm an arse, generally I say good morning to people every morning and when it happens I can take plenty of criticism without making it personal or feeling 'hurt'... Sometimes my office is beyond belief!
So how do I stop myself doing this 'jiggling' when I don't even know I'm doing it!? I'm considering making and handing out flags to everyone around me that they can simply wave in the air if I start off without realising!  ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

Leg jiggling is fucking annoying.
I would say that you have genuine disabilty and therefore require your own office.  |

I think I'll tick the box that says - 'All of the above' thanks!
I'll have a wank first, (wouldn't be the same without legs), then hand out the flags and shortly after that I'll cut off my legs. That'll make the fuckers feel guilty for bringing the issue up in the first place.
Oh wait, I wouldn't be able to ride my bike without legs... bugger I'll have to think of something else!  ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

Hmm, all you office types are retarded...why not try and solve the problem? I.e a carpet under neath the tables so they dont rock.
Seriously though, I cant imagine working in a place where someone would go to your manager instead of to you about FOOT TAPPING. ____________________ "Oh....it looks like Average Joe's is forfeiting the match!" - "Yeah, its a risky strategy but lets see if it pays off for 'em Cotton." |

^ exactly, duct tape your legs together and to your chair, then order the folk that complained to push you around the place if you need to go anywhere. things will go back to normal
simple office politics. |

LOL, that made me laugh...what a bunch of loosers.
The other day i was doing it while concentrating on a drawing i was doing, the guy sat opposite me suddenly said "Whoa, my calculators actually moving on its on" meaning the LCD display was all over the place when really it was just me wobbling the table.

I do it a lot, people tell me to my face though, if they went to management I'd bring it up with them in person just like I do with any other issue's that arise....

I have done this ever since I took up drums at like 13, as well as tapping/finger drumming. My legs are more or less constantly doing a 32nd double bass beat whilst im sat at my desk.
Dont get the urge to do it whilst in bed though, just when im sat thinking about stuff or chatting to people. Mates at the pub tell me to sit fucking still when their pints have ripples like when the T-Rex is walking in jurassic park, but half the time i dont even realise im doing it. The missus just backhands me, though that could just be because of my presence in general .
If people in my office had a problem wth it im sure they'd tell me. If my manager pulled me in because they had gone to them instead of approaching me, then those office colleagues might as well be dead to me - I wouldn't ever give them the time of day again, save for what is necessary in order to fulfill my work duties.

People who shake their legs are a pain in the arse, so are hummers, singers, loud talkers, those that use a pen to dial a phone, spreaders who take up loads of room, chatters, coffee slurpers, polo mint eaters, twitchers, gossips, the list is endless. Why not go to management, thats what they are there for, to sort things out. let them get the flack. ____________________ Famous last words of Humpty Dumpty. " Stop pushing me "

Jiggly legs is a horrible habit....on par with hocking up loogies noisily.
I have no solution as old habits die hard.
Still....your colleagues are being a bit petty for making it into a management involved issue. ____________________ Meet the team that will win, Blade, Razor, Blazer and my personal assistant, Michelle and from Romanovia - Fran Stalinovskovichdavidovitchsky

I've now taken to biting my nails and flicking them around the office instead, I'm sure no-one really minds though!  ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

Ha ha, that's quite funny. Do you think your colleagues had a meeting before going to management about your leg vibrating issues. I wonder if they took minutes.
I had a similar incident being called a theif while working for a holiday company. I went to borrow a rizzla off my so called mate when he was sleeping and he accused me of robbing his stuff, and apparently everybody else's stuff that had gone missing. Didn't tell me about it then I was called in front of the senior manager and confronted. couldn't believe it. Over a rizzla.
These people are just spinless, and don't have the intergrity to come and ask you first. If I was you I'd call a "meeting" and tell everyone what you think about them. Just to clear the air. ____________________ Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. |
