cocodrie TFF Guru Registered: 03/13/08 Posts: 14711 Loc: San Antonio	i know i complain a lot about work... BUT the old man that sits across the office that was freaking out about the short cut squares and arrows on his desktop screen a couple days ago has be asking for the last TWO hours "do you know where Comal St. is?" to any and everyone and finally a young guy who is the parts runner pulls out his phone and looks on his phone map and both are squinting and pointing and trying to find it on the phone and he is trying to work the touch screen (he can't even text) and they're at his desk for 10 minutes looking for this thing... THERE IS A DAMN COMPUTER RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU! google it!!! end of rant _________________________ Jeff

When I catch on to what they are doing I'll ask them what the are looking for and I'll find the number instantly with google.

The one thing that pisses me off worse is when they ask me where a work order is and I tell them. They will start rummaging through the stack of papers and then claim it isn't there and they will go out in the shop looking for it. I'll look through the papers while they are out there and usually it is 2 or 3 pages from the front in the stack they "looked" through. Both of them have done this a bunch.
