Working with Women

Ok, so I’ve always been a total nerd and I haven’t had many jobs where I’ve had to work with other people. On top of that, most of my jobs have been tech jobs in which I have zero contact with women. –There are times when I am the only girl in the entire company.

I can only remember one other job before now in which I had to have a lot of contact with women. During the summer between senior year and college, because of some weird rebellion I had against my mom I worked at Forever 21, girly clothing store. That lasted a good two weeks. I came, I gave my two weeks, I left.

I cannot FUCKING stand working with women.

I recently began a job for a parking and transportation department. (Think parking permits and citations).

The setup at my new job is as follows: I work in the back with all the tech guys. The rest of the office is virtually all women.

|—WARNING ULTIMATE BITCH ZONE AHEAD—|

1. What the FUCK is up with the incessant bitching?!

OK, bitches! Listen up! We work in a workplace with CUBICLES — not walls. EVERYTHING you say carries over the cubicles and can be heard by everybody else in the whole office. That is why people reply to you from the other side of the office.

But WHY, WHYYY do you insist, when something even half interesting happens, to yell your story to the person in the cubicle next to you… and then, if the whole office hasn’t come over to bitch about it with you, you go to the NEXT cubicle to fucking tell the SAME exact story again?

The other day I was sitting there and I swear, I heard the same bitching (I COUNTED) 7 times! WHAT … THE … FUCK?

I thought I was going to gouge my eyes out. If I had testicles, I would have cut them off by the 4th incantation of the bitch attack.

2. It’s JUST PARKING. Stop taking this shit so seriously!

Seriously. Every day I work, at least once, there is a convergence of people in some place in the office [ALWAYS at least 5-1 women-men] where they’re arguing — like REALLY arguing, yelling, getting frustrated — over parking policies.

COME ON. What the fuck — OK, seriously, it’s not REALLY going to make a big difference if you change the fucking permit color, or make it so that certain people can only park in certain places. People will live on. FUCK.

STOP MAKING YOURSELF FEEL LIKE YOUR JOB IS IMPORTANT!

3. STFU!!

Finally, STOP using office hour time to fucking call your kids, all your fucking friends, and anyone who might remotely want to listen to you. Once again, I point out we work in a cubicle environment! It’s OK to talk on the phone once in a while, especially if it’s an emergency, but fucking SHIT. While I’m designing or programming I don’t want to FUCKING hear about what time you put your KIDS to bed or what you think that your friend SALLY should do with her FUCKING boyfriend.

….
Bitching in the workplace should be a punishable act.

Let’s have a vote:

Who thinks that people should be punished for excessive bitching in the workplace? Raise your hands high, people!

:raises hand:


On a brighter note, I went to the LA Auto Show today with some friends. The picture below sums up the day pretty much.

Incidentally, I gave her my card, told her she should become a model and that I would make her website. I hope she comes to my page. Really.

Love,
Kim

haha nice pics. it was a tough move for me but something i’m really glad i did and i might as well do it while i was young. anytime you’re out on the east coast and nyc, you definitely got me as a contact. anytime you want to hit me up, my contact info’s on my page. i’m due out for a trip to So Cal sometime soon, do i have u as a contact out there ;)

inkhelm said,

January 16, 2005 @ 5:37 pm

naa i didn’t think you were. i was really impressed by some of your entries. i thought, wow, this is a girl with a great story. plus i’m more of a one-on-one person, don’t you remember from my entry ;) so if u wanna hit me up in IM, i’ll be up for a bit more, just doing some work now (i know sunday night ack), but i don’t want to start being a comment whore on your entry :P

Another superb entry. I had a co-worker who bitched a lot and irritated me because it seemed as though she wanted me to view her as some sort of victim. I’m glad she quit. Woot woot. Anyways, that’s my first parking ticket of this academic school year. Heh. I was parked in a reserved spot before 4 pm. If you get me out of paying for it, I’ll treat you to Lee’s sandwiches or anything you want. =)

Yes, all bitching should stop, and if they don’t then they should be spanked exponentially. 1-2-4-8 spanks for each infraction per week… or something like that. hahaahahhahaah. fun read…

“If I had testicles, I would have cut them off by the 4th incantation of the bitch attack.”
classic, that single line made the laughter bubble forth from the pit of my stomach.

*sigh* you are such a sexist! :-p j/k. I agree with you. Girls are sometimes bitches. But they sure are fun to look at…

Thanks for stopping by! It’s always great to find another blogger – and weebl and bob fan at that! I am kind of biased though since I actually know the 2 dudes that make it. They made a DVD too! You should try and get a copy!
So does this technically mean you’re bitching about bitching? It you were to attach a technical definition to bitching – what would that be?

hahahaaaa… that’s why even though its against company policy I listen to my iPod at work with my headphones in my cubicle so that I weren’t have to deal with all the office gossip (though on occassion that does entertain me quite a bit).

wow, i checked through your portfolio, and I must say, you’re pretty good at what you do!
lol, i know what you mean about the cubicals.. some people use the phones to make personal phonecalls at my workplace and they’re so freggin loud.  They’re talking about all this stuff that is probably deemed TMI as if nobody else in the surrounding cubicles can hear em. @_@
very nice picture you have there
ryc: sorry to have disgusted you. =X

Nice portfolio!!  So, when I finally open up my restaurant, can you do my web page? Yah! That would be great!  Then you could eat for free cuz you know, I’d be so poor I couldn’t pay you.  I’ll get back to you in like 20 years k?
haha..I wish I knew how to design stuff..I really do like the work you’ve done in the past =D

When I first started working in the garment industry, I thought I would be working with uber bitchy designer/saleswomen. But I guessed wrong, it was the our buyers from large chain stores who were the bitches.And yes, Forever 21 is one of our customers.

Hey its me again. The girl that can’t cook. Your profolio is super cool. I really admire your work. More importantly, I admire your candidness. I think there is a part in you that some of us, if not most of us, can identify with. Unlike you, our inhibition makes us incapable of expression.

anne0122 said,

January 17, 2005 @ 8:46 pm

yeah i do… lol maybe this is easier on AIM; dorkhappyemokid

Yeah, that was very nice of my mom. I was kind of going out of my mind, but I feel sooo much better now. I’ve put things in perspective. Aww, I’m sure things with your mom aren’t that bad right? =)

Hey Kim,I found your xanga coming across Richyduce’s xanga. CKI is fun and I remember seeing you there. Just miss those days, but UCI CKI has spirit. :o)I totally agree with your bitching at work posting. After I read that posting, the next day I wanted to test that theory out. At my work, if you don’t talk and gossip, they just think you’re not a people person, so I talk, but not bitch about stuff that much unless they ask. Luckily, the girls that bitch are in another department and I don’t have to listen to them. I just think if people stop bitching and start working, maybe they can get more work done. This one lady just sits on the phone and bitches to her friend about their lives or someone else’s lives. I won’t say anything because it’s not my place, but dang that’s quite a lot of time that she doesn’t do stuff. By the way, I just love the McDonald’s thing. Just Brilliant.
