Office Etiquette/I Hate People...Revolving Doors

This will be a quick post as it's very specific and about one issue; revolving doors. It's also unique in that it is a hybrid post; it will address office etiquette as well my hatred for people. It wasn't a planned post, just something that came to mind after I was almost mortally wounded while using one as I entered my POE this morning. Just a couple of guidelines (as I've seen some pretty random things happening with them in my time here):

If these kids can get the hang of it, why can't adults?

1. One person at a time (Part One): Do not attempt to go into the same section of the door as another person unless you are conjoined twins. If you are conjoined twins, you probably shouldn't have to work in this sort of environment anyway. And if you do, please make sure you are in sync in regards to your walking pace.

2. One person at a time (Part Two): Do not 'cut' in front of someone to get in the door first. It revolves, you will have your turn momentarily, and if you are that excited about it, remember, you can walk around and around in it all day long just like a hamster in a wheel. And if you're THAT excited about getting into your POE, I think you should probably seek psychiatric care ASAP.

3. Keep the Pace: This is the issue that prompted my post. I hopped into the revolving door this morning and was pushing it as necessary to get into the building. The Brawny Man hopped in in back of me and pushed the door so damn hard I went flying forward and almost tripped. No joke. I turned around and looked at him like I was a wild jungle animal about to maul his face off. He then proceeded to basically dry hump me the whole way down the hall and onto the elevators. He had no concept of personal space and clearly couldn't read social cues as I shot eye daggers his way.

The revolving door is a very simple concept as far as I'm concerned and if you follow the rules above, there should never be an issue in using it safely and without offending others.

I Hate People....Occupy THIS!

Ok, so regardless of political affiliations, I think we (people who are rational/normal to ANY extent) agree that it's good to stand up for your beliefs/opinions. However, I think we'd also agree that it's completely ridiculous to be part of a poorly organized 'movement' where everyone has their own agenda, full of individuals who are not regularly showering and enjoy camping in metropolitan areas.

Basically, (and this post is NOT geared toward the left OR the right), these people need to get their acts together and get jobs. Every retail establishment I enter is hiring and working part time at a retail location is better than voluntarily sucking off the gov't and the rest of us who are contributing to unemployment. These programs definitely serve their purpose during tough times.  I know there's a recession, I know the unemployment rates are high and it's very difficult for people to get jobs, especially within the pay ranges needed to live comfortably. I know there has been misconduct by politicians (on both sides) and by corporations....but I ALSO know that many of us are BARELY making ends meet financially....so "Occupiers", explain this to me:









Yeah, that's what I thought...you CAN'T explain that because it's COMPLETELY unacceptable! Are you serious right now? These hippie deadbeats are BURNING U.S. Currency....What the hell is going on here?

First of all, that's illegal...so why isn't something being done about this? It's on film for God's sake! Protesting is legal and well within their rights (even though I think they are mental midgets and completely disagree), but burning money is actually a crime.

Secondly, like it or not, you need cash to pay bills/buy things. SOOOOO, although it's 'weak', and you might want to revert to a barter economy,  it's unacceptable to burn it. I don't know about you, but I need all the help I can get financially. I want to choke this loser and all of his tent dwelling friends! That's logical, hold a fistful of burning paper and shake it like you're having a seizure. Is this guy mentally ill, homeless, or both? I think he probably should have used that money to buy a comb.

It should be noted that there is additional footage of this happening at another protest out on the West Coast. And at this particular protest, there are larger bills involve. Moral of the story? I guess it's easy to burn money and protest anything and everything as your 'full time job' when you're living off the rest of us who go to work and contribute part of our hard earned money to the federal & state unemployment programs.

By the way, I think they should have held off on this currency burning until the really cold weather set in....but given their inability to even have a cohesive mission, I shouldn't be surprised. God knows they'll need all the extra heat they can get as they camp out all winter (which they won't!). I'm thinking the pepper spray will work wonders to keep them toasty come the bitter winter months.
