Sorry you are having such a rough time Merge - Hugs
Dear Co-Worker, I'm really glad you are now in an office with others who see you for who you really are. Always late, Always sick, always long on the lunch hour and NO, you cannot add your breaks to lunch to take 1 1/2 hours, Read the Contract!
ETA: Dear other Co-Worker,
We all have the ability to see who is calling on our phones, if I am walking down the hall (the opposite direction of my desk) and you yell, oh that is so and so it must be for you, yes, I will continue to walk down the hall and you can answer it. And when you answer why must your voice go up several octaves and become sickly sweet? Be yourself! Yes, we should answer professionally but sing song sweet just drives me crazy!

I'll celebrate your successes but don't ever ask me to proofread something again because when I red penned that thing the death your feelings were hurt. Your feelings being hurt speak to your professionalism, not mine. Well, there's your problem. Everyone knows you're not supposed to use a red pen to make corrections because it hurts people's feelings. Next time, try purple. (Seriously; it's why red pencils aren't on school supply lists anymore.) LOL! Your responses made me laugh. Red pen is meerly an action phrase. And you all knew it so yeah! I actually suggested changes via the track changes mode in Word. But! They were in red. Seriously though, by the 14th run on sentence I didn't have a lot of constructive criticism left. I wrote, run on. By the 300th missing punctuation mark, I just started putting them in, but that also shows. If you give me something to proof, I will do my job. If you give me something and want me to half ass it, I can't do that just because you are insecure.

Dear coworkers I do have feelings. When the other two gals in the office get invited to do a Painting class with a coworker's wife and I don't get invited it hurts my feelings. Especially when one gal is new and doesn't know the coworker or wife that well. I am single and almost have an empty nest and am always looking for things to do. It's hard not to go home feeling bad about myself. I actually had a good cry and talked about it to my DD and told her I'd be fine today. I came in and ohh and ahhed over the pictures they took of their paintings. Being single in my area if very isolating. I wish all my friends weren't so far away. That concludes the Friday Pity Party for one
