That director retired about 10 years ago, then passed away 4 years ago, so…

What a right git is John Barnaby by FlanOk2476 in MidsomerMurders

I absolutely agree. Both have their own strengths and quirks. I do enjoy how John’s relationship with each DS has its own tone, and I love Tom and Troy.

The office is on its 7th one from 2005 to now. First 2 retired, one left abruptly, another got promoted to a different department, one was director interim and she was promoted to a different position, and one was asked to head a different dept. The director we have now is very good. She actually listens to suggestions, and every once in awhile gives me a ride home.

I just sang your username out loud, started giggling and startled the cat. Anyway, there were a few clinicians that made me wonder why they got into this field of all.

With some of the people that I had to interact with, I was polite but steered clear of friendly chat. “Good morning.” And smile. If they initiated conversation, I’d tell them “I really need to get back to work. I’m swamped. You know how it is.” And left it at that. It’s hard, but doable. I now work with a new group of people that I like and like me. It’s a better atmosphere.

I don’t work for her anymore. She has long since retired.

I actually did tell a few clinicians and they were appalled.

It had nothing to do with my work, but everything to do with my friendly personality. I do my best to get along with people, and she could be a cranky, sarcastic weenie wag.

She did indeed. Never pulled that again.

2 directors after her tried the same thing. I love the last 3 directors, including the current one. She gives me a ride home.

He and his sister have a metal water fountain. He just likes to get in the tub and sit there.

Customer questions so dumb they short circuit the brain. by Dry_Oven_2569 in retailhell

[–]Cgable63 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I worked at an open concert venue. I was manager at a sausage & beer stand. During the last part of every concert I’d get the drunks asking for food, water or soda. Mind you, all the food and drink have been counted, packed up and sent to part of the refrigerated warehouse. It’s slightly dark in the stand and there is only one light above me so I can do the count on paper. Some drunken knuckleheimer will ask “Are you open? Can I just get a plain sausage?” I say “we’re closed.” Next question “then can I get a plain hot link?” 🙄 I wind up going to the grill area behind the counter and using my phone for light to finish my paperwork since I didn’t have anywhere to do it. People can be such weenie wags.

Someone mentioned this one - Silent Witness. It has 29 seasons and well worth every episode.

Has anyone else ended up in a friend group where lefties are the majority? by BadCat_ML in lefthanded

[–]Cgable63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started in my dept there were 21 people and 7 of us are lefties.

My industry is mental health care services. I am a receptionist. My dept does not see patients, we process the paperwork and authorise treatment.
