The analog clock and the digital clock in my parents' car are not synced even though the manual says they should be.

Personally I think daylight savings is a complete waste of time. No pun intended lol

+1 on the time change. This week everyone started out thinking they were going to go in early to work or something, traffic was worse than usual with a lot of cars I never see at 0600. Same leaving at the end of the day.
Today it was getting back to the usuals and usual level.

I sat in a small (think walk-in closet) examination room for 90 minutes once waiting for the doctor. Nothing to read. He comes in, takes my BP, and comments about how high it is.

Ya think!?!?!?!

I'm surprised this thread is still going... I should get an award for best thread of the year or something.

But with a new job, getting used to the culture... like your boss taking several days to reply to simple emails.

REQUIRED employment training.

I already know fully well how to harass people. I know plenty well how to abuse alcohol. I know plenty well how to drive erratically and endanger the public around me with distraction.

Yesterday the instructor related a generic story about harassment, that every female in the office signed. Related to hugging, apparently this person would hug for a bit of an extended period, then take a deep whiff of her hair and sigh. "Super creepy Rob Lowe"

When employees from shipping and receiving come into my office IN ACCOUNTING asking if I have batteries for their wireless mouse. Sure, let me pull a couple AA's out my ass for you!

Come to downstate Illinois. Here they stop and sit for 20 seconds at empty intersections where you can see two miles in any direction. Drive me nuts.

What gets me, is when my wife says to my daughter as I doze off watching TV: "Don't wake up dad, he's crabby".

Well I was just fine, until you said that. NOW I am crabby... WTF!
