Spotting Annoying Coworkers!

Looking to spot annoying coworkers?  Read on to what I think makes coworkers annoying.  Every workplace has naysayers, you may even be thinking of someone in your office right now.  They’re always shooting down ideas that aren’t theirs.  Here’s another one for you to think about, spotlight stealers.  You know who these people are.  Johnny is always taking credit for the teams efforts.  Lets not forget about the guy that always sends out those useless emails.  Constantly coping everyone in the office on every email.  Just wants to let everyone know who came up with that idea, I say who cares?  The guy that emails everyone is possibly the say guy that loves to interrupt everyone, or get the last word in.  Man, I hate people like that, drives me nuts.  And last, Mr. Corporate.  This person is business at all times, never jokes around.  When you walk in his or her office you feel like your walking on eggshells.  You just never know what he or she will be like.  Here’s my opinion to help you get through the day, just do your job the best as you can.  People with different personalities will always struggle to work together.  Don’t talk behind others backs, and treat everyone the way you would want to be treated.  Last, I’m glad I work at home, could never handle people like this, I would go crazy!

Corvette ZR1!

I have something great to share with everyone today. I just placed an order for my 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. Would you believe that you have to pay cash for this? Banks aren’t handing out loans for a $103,300 auto. Here’s a little info on the engine. The engine has a 6.2-liter supercharged LS9 V-8. Which turns out an impressive 638 hp and an amazing 604 lb.-ft. of torque. Ok, you’re now asking what’s the top speed, well I’m told it can fly from 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph. Now you’re maybe asking about the fuel, yes premium fuel only. Again, what I was told is an estimated EPA fuel economy of 14-mpg city and 20 highway. Ok, I haven’t been completely honest with you guys today. I didn’t purchase the 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, and never will, I’m hoping for one some day!

Overrated MLB Player!

Did any of you hear this? Derek Jeter was voted the most overrated player in a Sports Illustrated poll. This is another slap in the face for Derek Jeter. After all, he’s the team captain for the greatest team in major league baseball history, the NY Yankees. He has also won four World Series, World Series MVP and an eight-time all-star. This poll was based off the voting of 495 Major League Baseball players. If you want the complete list, check out Sports Illustrated’s website, you’ll get a good laugh.

Bear Stearns Managers!

Did you all hear about this? It appears that two former Bear Stearns hedge fund managers were arrested and thrown in jail for lying to investors about the subprime mortgage market. Both men pleaded not guilty and we’re released on bond. One man’s bond was set at $4 million and the other guy had to put up $1.5 million. To keep this story short, they got caught by sending emails back and forth to each other, dumb. They we’re saying to each other is was time to close the funds. But at the same time asking people to invest more. Here’s a kicker, one of the men pulled $2 million of his own money out after he just told investor to put more in. I truly hope both of these guys spend some time in jail. When your in a trusted position like this, and your lying to investors, you deserve everything you get in the end – 20 years in prison.
