shut... up!

heeeeeeeeeeeehahahahha.. HEEEEEEEEEEHAHAHAHAHA... HEEEEEEEEEHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

that's all i hear from 12pm to 1pm everyday when i'm working. there's a lady at work who likes to talk on the phone during her lunch hour from 12-1 everyday and she laughs while she talks. i don't know who the fuck she's talking to, but it's really annoying! i can't concentrate when i hear a hyena laugh every two seconds. and her voice is really shirll too. grr.

we recevied an email about the dress code in the office today. it was about casual fridays. and get this, "while fridays are dress down days, pls note that t-shirts and running shoes are not permitted". uhm. ok. so what do i wear? the running shoes i can deal with, although i still think it's bullshit. but t-shirt? what do you mean by a t-hsirt? one of those extra large white t-shirt with stains on them? or one of those many fitted t-shirts which i own and not only wear on fridays, but on a daily basis? what am i supposed to wear if not a t-shirt? a blouse? what the hell is a blouse? who even wears blouses, except for middle aged ladies stuck in the eighties and wearing colourful suits (which in reaity are ill-fitting jackets with huge shoulder pads and matching pants/shorts/skirts) with their pantyhose and flat shoes? i haven't even seen the word blouse in stores for the longest time. besides, how does the way one dress affect the efficiency of their work? i mean, if people aren't wearing something that will distract others, such as tube tops with overspilling boobs, or wearing something which inhibits them from working, such as, oh i don't know, a strait jacket, then what's the harm in dress the way we want?

i understand that professionalism comes into play here, but please, if you are going to send out an email indicating the inappropriateness of t-shirts and running shoes, then perhaps an email about hyena laughter should be circulated as well.

time for: grabbing some lunch.
