Disturbing

If you haven't read my blog post Maintenance Issues, it would be relevant for you to take a few minutes to do so before proceeding....

So we have a new girl on our team who sits next to the fingernail clipper. And the clippers came out this morning. About 20 seconds into the cutting, the new girl asked:

NG: What are you doing over there??

Clippy: Cutting my nails.

NG: What?!

(I think she meant "What?!" as in "WTF?! Why would you be doing that here?!" But he interpreted her response as "What did you say? I didn't hear your answer.") So he repeated...

C: Cutting my nails.

NG: Why would you do that here?!?!

C: It's hard to work with long nails.

NG: You should do that at home!!!

C: There is no time at home.

NG: HR sent out an email about that one time!!!

NG: You can't be doing that here!!! It disturbs me!!!

C: Well they don't know that I have no time at home.



I wonder if HR would confiscate his clippers if I reported him....
