Let's talk about email, specifically Barb's email etiquette. Barb is the queen of passive-aggressive email subject lines. You know, the ones that make you question your life choices.
I get an email from Barb, subject line: "Just a Thought..." Oh great, here we go. You open it, and it's a paragraph about how she thinks the office plants should be watered more often. Barb, we have a janitor for that!
I'm waiting for the day she sends an email with the subject line, "Just a Thought... Maybe You Should Quit." Wouldn't be surprised.
Barb fancies herself as an office detective. She's got this habit of investigating everyone's business. You know that feeling when someone is staring at you, and you look over, and it's Barb, pretending to read a spreadsheet, but you can see the detective glint in her eyes.
One day she corners me and says, "I noticed you took a longer lunch break yesterday." I'm like, "Barb, are you keeping a spreadsheet of my lunch breaks? What's next, a pie chart of my snack choices?" She's like Sherlock Holmes with a magnifying glass, examining the mysteries of who ate the last donut.
I'm just waiting for her to launch her own detective agency – "Barb's Bureau of Busybody Investigations." You know she'd have business cards and everything.
So, we have this communal fridge at work, right? And everyone knows the unspoken rule – you don't touch someone else's lunch. But then there's Barb. Barb is the lunch thief, and she's like a culinary cat burglar.
I put my lunch in there with my name written on it in big, bold letters. I even drew a smiley face, just to be extra clear. But Barb doesn't care. She's got a sixth sense for delicious leftovers. I came in one day, and my lunch was gone. Poof! Vanished.
I confronted Barb, and she goes, "Oh, was that yours? I thought it was up for grabs." Really, Barb? It had my name on it! I'm starting to think she has a black market for stolen sandwiches.
You ever have that colleague at work who's like a stealthy ninja, but instead of throwing shurikens, she throws passive-aggressive comments? Yeah, we've got one at the office, let's call her Barb. Barb, the office ninja. She's got this ability to sneak up on you just when you think you're having a normal day.
The other day, I'm at my desk, minding my own business, typing away, and out of nowhere, Barb appears. She goes, "Oh, working hard or hardly working?" I'm like, "Barb, it's 9 AM, give me a break. I haven't even had my second cup of coffee yet, and you're already throwing shade."
I swear, if passive-aggressiveness were an Olympic sport, Barb would have more gold medals than Michael Phelps. But hey, at least we're getting some exercise dodging her comments.
