A guy at my work tries to be cute by referring to me all the time, no matter what the situation is, as "Ellie Ellie Ellie O." I did a presentation a few weeks back in which he introduced me like that. It was awful and very awkward.

Another guy always asks what "girlie" stuff me and my girlfriends are going to do over the weekend, then usually suggests the most stereotypical girl stuff like watch Sex and the City, getting my nails done or baking... I dream of one day punching that guy in the face.

^^Of course, usually while we are watching Sex and the City and waiting for our cupcakes to finish baking. I just don't like him assuming that is all we do.

then after that you sit around eating ice cream while talking about boys. Then you paint each others nails and make out with pillows for you know, practice.

People who mispronounce the word "harassment". They say "hare-assment" instead of "ha-rassment".

"This is sexual hare-assment you know. I could call HR".

I used to work with a hot little number that said it all the time. Drove me nuts.

If it bothered you THAT much maybe you should have kept your pants on at work.

It's probably too late, but that's where you say, "My consulting rate is $150/hr, 4 hours minimum."

C: "I can't get the display to show up on both monitors."
Me: "Did you press Function-F7?"
C: "That won't work."
Me: "So you tried it and it didn't work?"
C: "It won't work."
Me: "Weird.. wait.. are you telling me you have or haven't tried that?"
C: "I just know that it's not going to work."
Me: "Can you please just try it?"
C: *hangs up*

Boss: "What's this about the display not working?"
Me: "I don't ****ing know, I told her to press Fn-F7 which works on all the machines here, but she says it won't work."
Boss: "Did she try?"
Me: "I don't think so, but she won't listen to me."
Boss: "Well.. sort it out."

C in e-mail: "Talked to the guys over in Europe, they said to try pressing Fn-F7 and the display is now working on both screens."
Boss, friend: "Isn't that what you told her to do?"
Me: *face palm*
Boss: "Dude, she owes you a BIG apology."

My one co-worker tried to argue with me the other day that Edmonton has more talent than Chicago and that Gagner and Cogliano are as good as Kane and Toews.
