Peace & quiet

My coworkers have been driving me (and my other coworkers T & J) bonkers lately. All they do is talk. TALK TALK TALK. I come in, they're talking. I go to break, they're still talking. I come back, yup, more talking. To make it more annoying, they talk at volume 10. If you're going to obviously not work, at least talk at volume 3 so as to not draw attention to yourself, or bother your coworkers, you know? They're so loud that today I had my iPod set at half volume, and it STILL didn't drown them out. And that's with the fancy in-the-ear headphones, not the crappy earbuds that come with the iPod. I'm very surprised that they haven't been called out for this, because to say it's excessive is an understatement. Plus, half of what they talk about is them bitching about how the editors are all stupid morons, and how they're smarter or wear better clothing. Yes, really.

Anyway, they're gone now, and it's blissfully quiet. I am pleased.

In other news, [livejournal.com profile] tiaralynn sent me this earlier, and it made me LOL so I figured I'd share:



Oh, Admiral Ackbar. You never fail to make me laugh.

Gah! I would be so tempted to do something passive aggressive, like loudly start trading inanities with a co-worker. But they're probably too dim to notice. *sigh*

They have been talking nonstop since I arrived at 8:45. It is now 9:39. WTF. One of them is just standing behind the other one watching her work and commenting on it. Don't you have your own shit to do?

My coworker J is now wearing his headphones all the time while at work, because he can't take it. I'm going to start doing the same, because I can't take it. And the shit they talk about is SO assinine. Earlier one said "My husband loves the movie Groundhog Day, and I don't get it. It's just the same thing over and over. The movie could be 20 minutes long!" SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!? Haaaaaaaaaaaate. I can't wait till one of them goes on maternity leave in a few months so we can have some REAL peace and quiet.

If this continues, I honestly think I will have to say something to my boss about it, because I'm going nuts.
