I was working on getting settled into my office and hadn't had anything but a protein drink all day. So, about 4:30 I walked up to Blimpie for a 6 inch sub. I mean I was SO HUNGRY I could have eat the rear end out of a rag doll... :eek:

It was a little after 5 PM when I sat at my desk to snack down. Everyone on day shift was leaving out and it was finally getting a little quiet around here. I took 3 bites.....just 3....not 4 or 5, and this nice, little old lady appeared in my door way to say hey. I set the sandwich down and returned the greeting with a smile. But NOOOOO.......she decided to stand there and catch up on the year that I've been working out of another building.... So I let the sandwich lay and lay and lay while she continued :BH

Okay, when you walk into someone's office to ask something or tell them something and you SEE THEM HAVING LUNCH, isn't it best to make it short and leave them alone to finish? SHEEEEESH!
 
Years ago, right after I got out of the Military, I was working for Comcast. I was sitting in my truck which had huge letters that spelled out COMCAST on all sides, eating lunch. Well, a guy walks up to my truck and knocks on my window. I rolled down the window and this idiot asks me if I worked for Comcast. I wanted to say, "No jackass, I stole this sweet van and decided to have lunch in the midst of my crime spree." He asked if he could have a remote and then went on and on about how his dog ate it, what type of dog he had and where he got the dog. By the time this genius was done flapping his gums it was time for my next appointment. Some people have no respect or too damn dumb to notice you are busy.

Well, while we are complaining about folks interfering with lunch! Today I had firmly announced around my office that I was starving and would be leaving for lunch early, around 11:30. At promptly 11:30 I was told I had a client in the lobby, WITH NO APPOINTMENT! who stated he was there to review his information. I tried to wrap him up quickly. I told him a few things I needed, he said I'll go get my computer and went to his truck for his laptop. He starts going through his emails. What I need is not there. Well, let's call this number. when I finally got rid of him and off to lunch . . . 1 pm! JERK!
