The subtle just under the surface love-hate passive-aggressive interplay between Dayzie and Brice (if you're lucky, culminating in some kind of passionate-beyond-their-control office affair between them) would make that pair the most interesting to have as colleagues in the long run, IMHO.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Lewis or Wallace. or both, so I can have fun hearing them fight

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Tough crowd. I would go with the farter. Everyone farts.

I want to pick both Hannah and Shiloh and see how the situation develops from there.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Because judging people on prejudice is what we like doing. It's innate, but also a bit harmful towards those that don't fit the mold.

Also a lot of love for Wallace. That may also be why we favor older people in elections. I don't think that's a good thing.

I know it's a shit post, but I felt like doing a Debby downer in here. Disregard if it spoils your fun.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, my thoughts exactly, even before reading the comments. Yeah, it's a shitpost, but "Oh, Wallace is considered bottom of the barrel because.. he's like 100?" Straight up ageism.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

In my personal experience, "the really old colleague" is often a real throw of the dice between stubborn-as-fuck-never-matured-know-it-all and very-interesting-seen-it-all-genuinelly-mature-colleague - so basically opposite ends of the scale. Often there's also the corner-guy-just-counting-their-days-till-retirement, which doesn't say much about that person since they're not really into establishing relationships with people whom they will soon never see again and just keep a low profile.

If you're early career, having one of the seen-it-all kind of older colleagues is probably one of the best things it can happen to you, especially if you're a bright kid.

The only unacceptable one is dayzie. It's basic hygiene. Can't Imagine she even washes her hands after using the bathroom, because "it's all natural"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Does deodorant need to be unnatural to be effective?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Natural deodorant = sweat? Or am i missing something? Are you refering to something homeopathic?

Anyone but Susan.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Bryce, don't mind me the smell o tuna.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

Wallace is my boy! We ride or die together!

I can't fucking stand the zeal today's youth has for life.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I used to sit next to someone like Hannah in an open plan office. She was lovely. Really happy and excited for her future.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Yeah, I hated her.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I would be just concerned because she might soon go to maternity leave and it is not clear who would cover for her during her absence

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I guess I'm spoiled because I don't understand how this becomes an issue?

If someone leaves for parental leave (or quits) and you're now more understaffed, some less important things won't get done. It's kind of the company's problem to have the staff it needs. If you suddenly have to do two full jobs for one salary, you're kinda getting scammed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Either Dayzie or Brice. Cannot smell, so neither of them would be bad, but the sounds Lewis might make would be distracting and outright disgusting on their own.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 days ago

Radio head it is then

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (3 children)

I've had Hannah, Caleb, Wallace and Susan.

  • Hannah is annoying at first, but it will blow over.

  • Caleb will talk about sports and that will be all he talks about. You can tune him out, but he will learn to hate you, because you don't value his feats of manliness.

  • Wallace is ok at first, but becomes really tiresome. His worldview is from 1920s, blatantly racist and doesn't realize it, judges you constantly according to some stereotype that is based on some guy he knew 100 years ago and gives you occasional corrective sermons that make no sense, because they are for that guy he once knew.

  • Susan appears to be ok, but is a psycho. Will try to manipulate you and delegate stuff to you, even though doesn't even work in for the same department. Everything is a thing that will be decisive to your career and soon marks you down as a looser, because you don't listen to her. Will leave the company, because everyone is a looser.

Edit: so anyone in the top four. Office already stinks and on music is allowed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I've been sharing an office with a Wallace. It can be tiresome. But one can occasionally learn things and ignoring the annoying parts can be part of what you can learn. I'd certainly chose Wallace of these options.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

The last two guys in my team that got retired were 65, but excellent people, and taught me lots, so my first instinct was Wallace. But reading your report, it occurs to me that maybe the description "Is like 100" actually implies a certain oldness of mind that I didn't consider.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Agree on Caleb. He will quickly tune out due to your lack of interest and there will be peace in office.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Jokes on you, I smell like a vagrant

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Uno reverse challenge: It's your job to allocate two of these people to the same office, and if one of them quits, gets fired, or dies you get that office to yourself. Which two do you pair up for the fastest vacancy and why?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Wallace or Shiloh.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

You shouldn't steal memes from the meme museum

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'd be fine with several of these.

Brice: I've never understood people's distaste for that smell. I won't microwave tuna in an office because I know others don't like it, but it wouldn't bother me.

Wallace: probably has some great stories, but also likely wants to shut up and get things done. Great combination if handled correctly.

Shiloh: hey, you can play anything on your headphones, I'm cool with that. But if you want to play stuff on speaker it's only fair that we play 50/50. (My secret: I could totally do up to 75% Radiohead)

Dayzie: again, not a smell that tends to bother me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Yeah, I think all but hr would be fine for me just because hr's main job is to protect the company above all else.
