Don't you LOVE work colleagues??
We have to cover phone lines 8:30 - 6 every weekday at work, and with a department of approx 30 people, we do it on a rota basis.
This morning I was due to do the 8:30 start. (we have people who start at 7am and they normally cover the morning slot, but she was on hols this week).
So, this morning I got up and was drying my hair when hubby came through and said "baby, don't you start early today?" (I'd gotten up at normal 9am starting time!) I was OMG'ing and started rushing to get ready.... I made it in for 8:27
YEY ME!!
As I was walking to my desk, I realised there were 2 "early starters" in already and working... As I walked past one, I said "oh, you guys are in already! How come one of you don't cover the line seeing as you're in anyway?"... in a nice, friendly, general tone of voice... and I got back a "Well, ALL you had to do was ASK, no need to be MOANY about it!!!"
I merley stated it was common sense rather than taking another member of staff in for that half hour slot!!! I replied with "well, that'll be me told" and carried on to my desk. I sit in a team of 10... only 1 person spoke to me ALL day...
How freaking childish!!!!
