People are strange

in Babies on the Brain
DH started week 3 of his new job today. He went in to find an irate coworker. She is mad because his keyboard and mouse are too loud. She said he types too fast causing too much noise. I have lived with him for 9 years and I can promise he is a quiet typer. She went to his supervisor. :/ he's not starting out on a good foot today.

    People are so ridiculous. I think it's because of the holidays. A lot of customers were downright nasty this weekend. I was called MFer on Friday and then on Saturday a customer told me that I was ignorant, stupid, and that I should try using my brain over a 70 cent money order fee. Sigh.

    Being as I'm so passive aggressive, I'd probably purposely try to type louder, of course it's a new job so he'll have to play nice, but that lady is crazy. How can one really type too loudly?

    there are loud typers. I am not at his job, so I can't say he wasn't loud Friday. Knowing his typing style at home, I doubt it. He thinks she is afraid of him for whatever reason.

    How loud you type using depends on the actual keyboard. That said, it's a ridiculous thing to complain about. This co-worker sounds like a bucket full-o-win.

    ((hugs)) I am always extra nice to cashiers because I remembered how much it could suck from when I worked retail. I can't imagine how much more it sucks someplace like Walmart. I'm sorry people suck so much Bio.

    I guess someone could type loud, I just I can't imagine it bothering someone to the point that they would complain about it. Why does he think she's afraid of him?



    He was brought in to change things. He is working with people much older.

    So I'm sure the next compliant will be out him walking on the lawn, yes?

    This is just sad and nit-picky. I hope his day gets better.

    Haha at the lawn walking!  That stinks that he has to take the brunt of the anti-whipper-snapper attutude.

    OMG I am DYING!!  I nearly peed myself laughing. She is in charge of ordering new office supplies and equipment.  She offered to order him a new key board and mouse.  DH said he can't keep a serious face.

    He should say " thank you very much, I've noticed my keyboard is rather loud".

    Why would your husband's supervisor even entertain her "complaint"? You guys are magnets for strange happenings! lol

    I don't think he did. DH never heard anything about it.
