Today I realized my hatred of my job had reached new heights when I started believing it wasn’t important to photocopy every page of a document.

It's also not important to not randomly shred documents.
This made me laugh out loud!
Wow, that is heavy! I recall not photocopying all of the pieces of a huge document at an office job I had a long, long time ago, but that was just ineptitude, not downright insubordination.
Sometimes I feel that it isn't important to fax all the pages of a document. I believe you and I are in the right on this.
Wow. So your boss yelled at you on top of dreaming that you had a baby with your philandering boyfriend. No wonder you deleted the post. It really, really sucks to be you, doesn't it?
Why don't you just get a new job? It's actually a lot easier than people think.
If you've crossed that rubicon, there's no going back... get out while you can... meanwhile, start working casual undertime... where you work an hour or so a week while getting paid for 40... get paid to job hunt...
i dont know you, but i adore you. please post more often. you are hilarious.
Today, my boss asked me to double-side photo copy something and I just straight-up didn't do it. I copied them normal and then said the copy machine jammed, you should try it.
Man I sure relate. I had the exact same moment today in my office making copies of some tax returns....so many forms....I just made sure to copy the ones that had the bigger numbers on them.
I f-ing hate my job too. But I'm quitting soon...I just blogged about my "Freedom Plan" :)
OMG... this is the funniest thing I've read in a long time!!
wait, who said her boss yelled at her? it's cb. i don't think she gets caught.
Haha, you are so amusing. I'm not a huge fan of my job either. It's a little scary to take that leap. The word "unemployment" in this city scares the crap out of me. But imagine how fabulous it will be to serve your two weeks notice ;)
I prefer it when I get the original by e-mail. That way I can delete sections entirely before I photocopy.
I hate my job with a passion, and I've gotten really good at convincing my boss that my mistakes are his fault. It's fun, you should try it.
consider it a stand against paper-wasting, you tree-hugger.
Today, Feb. 9th, is my daughter (Marni over at its-a-pugs-life) 40th birthday. Go to my blog site and listen to the song in her honor. Thank you for this commercial break.
That'll do it...
Hey at least you say photocopy. I keep exclaiming at work, "I'm going to make a Xerox" when the truth is I work for a company that makes friggin copy machines. Point: My co-workers think I'm a Xerox loving dickhead that doesn't know I'm skipping the halls promoting our largest competitor... awesome. Have a good weekend :)

I re-organized my files and re-installed the operating system on my computer at work. Yeah, I was pretty much not enjoying work that day.
I had someone do this to me...with intent.
She was really angry when I checked the eight binders to make sure they were complete.
Giving your 2 weeks notice is, possibly, one of the best experiences outside of sex... and then you spend the remainder of your time there pretending to act busy, surfing the net, taking longer lunches and calling in "sick"... oh yeah, there's something to be said for fu*king the dog at the office!
I have just found your blog and read it all over the weekend instead of doing housework. Much more productive work I think. You remind me a little too much of myself, especially with this post! And I agree, very little feels better than giving notice and then goofing off for your last 2 weeks!
Today I realized my hatred of my job had reached new heights when I repeatedly slammed the "upper door" of the copier into its little slot attempting to fix a jam. I then repeatedly cursed our executive director, xerox machines in general, and the term "copy load letter" out loud while jumping up and down.
i relate, the boss yelled at me (via passive-agressive email) for my inability to find the right files on his computer, i counldnt tell him it was because of all the Porn i found. i hate my job
In the week before I left my crap job just about a year ago, I shredded quite a lot of things. Some of the things were important. That's my postsecret.
