Come on now Goldmember.

I was just F'n with ya!!!

 

Its all good brotha, me tooo ^^

 

I had a group of women like that in my old job. They were too busy gossiping to ever get any work done. They made it a point to ask me about every detail of my weekends on Mondays. I swear they had to live vicariously through me or something.

We called them "The Cackling Hens"

I figured out the best way to combat them. They would try to talk to me and I'd just smile and wave and walk away. It drove them nuts.

 

The only workplace chatter I ever hear is that which goes on in between my ears. And theres lots of it...

 

mirror image of my workplace scenario

2 secretaries sit next door...there is a door that connects our offices, the guy who did this job before me kept it open; it's now nailed shut.

we actually refer to them as hens or biddies too...constantly coming in our offices and start talking with things like "now i know this isn't none of my business, but" or "now i know you don't know the answer to this, but" or "i know i probably shouldn't be telling you this, and you probably don't care, but"

always asking me what i'm doing, what i've been doing, what i'm gonna do...it would be one thing if they actually cared, but they do it just so they'll have something to talk about. drives me f'ing nuts. doesn't make me hornery though...

 

It depends on who is working with me for a given shift. We're supposed to keep it pretty quiet during nights so that these mf'in patients can get sleep. There is one coworker of mine who not only is a closer talker and gets into your personal space, she tells you mundaine stories or those about her ex bf/husband who got her knocked up years ago.

On a side note, do your coworkers have the memory of a goldfish? Like I've been planning a large trip and people knew about it 6-8 months ago, and its seems like at least a few times a week somebody asks me when im going, each time its the same answer. I must have told this one nurse 75 times over the course of the last 6 months.

 

thread fail.

Everyone knows a Blacktooth is a person from England with bad teeth.

 

nurses have more important things to remember than where you're going on your trip
