DL's PCOTD

so there's a woman here in the office who is very high up. very well known and very important to the company (or so i'm led to believe). this woman i have named Dragon Lady. she is so fierce and ruthless with how she handles her business and people, that's akin to a dragon...but she's a lady too so there ya go: Dragon Lady.

i think i'm going to make one of my segments on here one that i've been using for a while, with regard to her: Professional Comment of the Day (PCOTD). and lucky for you, today - the very beginning of my online documentation of PCOTD - there are two!

so DL rose to the level of importance to having need a blackberry...or a crackberry....whatever you'd like to call it. i'm going to slightly ignore the fact that she asked how to turn it on (i'm sorry but technology has been so streamlined that the power button looks the same on every phone/pda device...it just does!)

so aside from that blunder, she says the following, within ear shot (3 cubes away):

1. "I feel like a guy now! I feel like a guy now!"

why? because you have a blackberry strapped to your waist? because only men need blackberries because for the most part only men are higherups? what did you mean by that DL? tell me!

offensive. just is.

2. in reference to a restructuring the office is undergoing, she makes light of her possibly losing her job by saying the following:

"I can go back to work at that fast food place I used to work...I know how to say HOLA!"

seriously folks? can we stomach this? i can't.

i really can't. i'm waiting for the moment i can report her. the second comment is pretty close but not close enough. i want to drown her in her own ignorance and stupidity.

okay that's all for now. i'll post more about my days soon...just gotta work out my mental kinks.
