Wait, isn't that word a "Bush-ism"?
Like, "Stratigery"?

They did it. An anonymous group of coworkers went to my boss and demanded that he ask me to stop cooking my broccoli in the department's microwave because the smell is very offensive.

It was bound to happen. Everyone in this damn department has a problem with SOMETHING.

Never mind that for the past week or so I've been courteously excusing myself and going to the cafeteria to eat in quarantine so as not to "offend" my coworkers' sensitive nasal cavities.

I was in a hurry yesterday and used the dept microwave for one of my meals, and immediately I heard whispering and sighing and all that shit. So it came as no surprise that today my boss casually asked me to go to the cafeteria from now on. Then we chuckled at how stupid these people are.

I'm telling you that i am not at all surprised. THESE PEOPLE ARE UNREAL. That's what happens when everyone is miserable in the workplace. Things get so farking nitpicked to death. Everything becomes a nuisance. Everything is complaint-worthy. hahahhhahahaha!

greekblondechic · 10-28-2004, 04:34 PM

Can you cook it ahead of time and eat it cold?

You have the workplace from hell! How do you stay calm and not lose it? One
of the ladies I worked with used to bitch about me leaving "crumbs" about, which would maybe amount to a fricken speck that no one else would ever notice. So, now I purposely leave a whole shit load of crumbs on her desk every so often (when she's not looking of course) just to watch her freak out. Childish perhaps, yes, but oh so enjoyable

Hey Early Bird

How was the wo ? Brocolli crimes are of the highest order.

What a bunch of losers.

GoalGetter · 10-29-2004, 07:01 AM

Yay! Three days in a row, without a problem, getting up at 430 am and going to the gym before work!

I'm still going to take this day by day, and not beat myself up for it if I don't do this every time, but I have to say, it feels great to budget my time like this. My workout is great, my mind is clear, I'm full of energy (WHO KNEW! hahaha!).

Chest/Back

Nat. Chest Press

1 x 30lb x 15 - warmup
1 x 65lb x 15
2 x 75lb x 15

Wide Grip Pulldowns

1 x 60lb x 16
2 x 65lb x 15

Nat. Incline Press

3 x 45lb x 15

Cable Seated Row / Nat. Seated Row

2 x 60lb x 15 / 1 x 65lb x 15

Nat. Chest Flies

3 x 45lb x 15

Barbell Bent over Rows

3 x 50lb x 15

Bi/Tri

Dumbell Curls / Barbell Curls
2 x 15lb DB's x 15 / 1 x 30lb x 15

Cable Pushdowns

3 x 60lb x 15

Reverse Grip Cable Pushdowns

1 x 30lb x 15
2 x 40lb x 15/14

Reverse Grip Barbell Curls

2 x 30lb x 12

Cardio

Stairmaster, Level 20, Intervals, 20 minutes <--- KICKED ASS, went all out.

Abs

Will do when I get home, was running late already.

Overall, felt it was a pretty good workout, with some exceptions. I am going to go heavier on the wide grip pulldowns on Tuesday, as well as on the chest flies, or maybe I'll do cable crossovers instead of flies on Tuesday. I am also going to focus a little more on my arms. I wussed out on the last round of reverse grip bb curls, only did two because I could barely lift the bar for the third set, so i did like two reps and quit while I was ahead. Unacceptable.

No quitting. hahahaha!

hey gw - just posted it!

Today i'm actually having oats with my "post-workout/first meal at work" meal. And i pre-cooked the broccoli at home, so hopefully it's ok to eat in a few hours.

I swear i was so annoyed yesterday i was tempted to just quit on the spot and send everyone to a nice warm place down south.

Not counting cardio how long did your wo take ?

Velvet · 10-29-2004, 07:28 AM

Hahahahah! I wear my iPod because I refuse to be social at this meatmarket gym

But I keep moving because I'm trying to build up a light cardio effect while doing the weights portion of my training...

Happy halloween to you too, my dear! And your son!

Some halloween related nots:

- no costume for me this year

Couldn't decide on something.

- someone left a little halloween "treat bag" on my desk this morning. Everyone in the dept got one. The contents: Fun Size Crunch, Fun Size Kit Kat, Fun Size Almond Joy, a Dum-Dum Blueberry Lollipop, ONE Hershey Kiss. I took the bag and all its contents to my boss' candy bowl and put it all in there. No candy for me.

	I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
