Why are co-workers so nosey about other people and what they are doing??
I just had such a terrible day. I have 3 beoches in my office that you could be in someone's office, their body isnt but their ears are. They have to know what is going on and why you are in someone's office. So much that they counted how many times a day someone is in and out of a persons office. Then gossip and run to HR .
Why are people so concerned with what others are doing? Is it human nature to gossip?
My philosphy is if you are so concerned with what I am doing then you are not doing your job.
I hate the click and I should be careful what I wish for because it may come true, but I so wish negative on them.
I hope what goes around does come around.

ahhhhh this is one thing I SURE dont miss about corporate america (although Im sure it happens everywhere)..
One girl I worked with was OBSESSED with who entered our boss' office, who went to have a cigarette with her, who she was on the elevator with. she was completely obsessed with every aspect of work life, she wore red often because it was a "powerful color" and uhmm, her job title was NOT all that (dont want to say it so as not to offend anyone who is), but she thought she was the CEO. She'd ask a ZILLION questions about ANYTHING that took place, even meetings that she didnt attend, she'd ask questions that had nothing to do with the meeting itself
wooo, just had an annoying flashback.

It's so miserable to have people like that.
These 3 witchese in my office are so miserable that the only pleasure they get is knowing someone else is getting in trouble.

and ANNOYING is an understatement!!!!!!!!!
W T F do you care who went to a meeting and who didnt ?
You know those people that just stare INTO you when they talk to you and ask questions with this intense curiosity to know EVERYTHING about EVERYONE!!! and then from work talk, she'd get into questions about my personal life.. on and on..
and I *HATE* being questioned one after the other. just in general.
Even if my MIL calls and asks me how are the boys, thats it, she can go on with 35 more questions!! And after the 2nd question im like OK ENOUGH !!!! she calls less than 24hrs after she's seen us and will start with How's he feeling? BetteR? so how are you doing? what are the boys up to? did they eat dinner ? ahhhhh SHUT UPPPPPPPPPPPPP whats with me and my tangents??

Those type of people need to go start their own gossip columns
