Stop Asking Me

Stop asking me.
Stop asking me to tell you when I'm going to heat up my food so you can stalk me in the lunchroom.
Stop asking me at 9 am what I'm doing for lunch. I haven't even begun to digest my breakfast yet.
Stop asking me where I'm going for lunch.
Stop dropping by my cube (cell) every 20 minutes to "see what I'm doing". I still don't want to go to lunch with you.

How many times do I have to say no before you stop asking? Apparently 100 isn't enough. Please don't put me in the awkward position of telling you that I don't like you and I find you highly annoying. I'm at work, HR frowns on that sort of commentary. I don't like my job, but I'd like to keep getting a paycheck. Please stop, so I can cease having to hide from you at lunchtime.

Can't you just pick up my not-so-subtle hints? Like when you're talking and I walk away. Or when I just say, "uh-huh" in response to everything you say or tell you I'm busy, when you can clearly see I'm surfing the internet. Or when you come to my desk and I don't spin my chair around to look at you. Like when you say, "Come get me when you go on break" and I never do. If you didn't know before, I'm telling you now - this is what people do when they don't want to talk to you. Get a clue! You're a douche!

Stupid people make me want to be violent. Maybe you should fasten a door to your cube/cell and just not answer it when the coont comes a knockin'. Or there's always head phones.

"or tell you I'm busy, when you can clearly see I'm surfing the internet" Busy at work again, my dear? bwahahahahah
Subtle is apparently lost on the stupid. I say go the Les Nessman route and put tape on the floor pretending its a door. Demand that people knock first and feel free to ignore them even when they do. Best of luck!

What a stupid and clueless asshat! Just makes me more grateful for my tiny company where people are hired based on pleasant personalities as well as skills.

How I got hired I'll never know.
