NEXT CUBE OVER

The person occupying the cubicle right next to mine is really starting to get on my nerves!!!

I work in the finance dept at my company-we have an extra cubicle; so another department has one of their temp hires sitting in the extra cubicle-which happens to be next to my desk.

Every 10 minutes this person keeps popping her head over to ask a question-about e-mail; saving a document; excel. She didn't even know how to print from excel. OK i know i'm in finance i can use excel in my sleep but give me a break! I don't mind answering a question here & there; but seriously; if there's something she doesn' t know she needs to call her boss and have him explain it to her. Instead of making it seem to him like she knows everything he's having her do! Who doesn't know how to save a document and then open a new one?? Or go back and find a document that you already had opened???

I come in at 8:30; two days in a row she's been here at 9 but her boss hasn't come in until 10! And she hasn't been able to log onto the system. And navigate the programs on our server. So the last 2 mornings she's been asking me questions and spending that hour talking to me.

I don't know how to be polite but ask that she leave me to do my work (or come onto LIW LOL!) I don't mind a question here & there but enough is enough...AND she talks so low which is also aggrevating. I have to get up from my desk & go over to her just to hear what she's whispering!

Ok vent over! LOL!

Not to be mean but ever since I moved to Long Island from Queens I've been looking like crazy for a job in the Island (I currently work in the Manhattan) so here is a though....Have her fire and let them hire me so we can chat about our weddings and LIW all the time and I promise I know how to open/save documents and print also

Ohhh I am with you on this! You should get double your salary since you're doing 2 jobs. I'm adding to your vent, lol: I used to have a co-worker next to me who would sing to herself ALL DAY. And really, there has to be a ban on tuna fish sandwiches in the workplace.

You can always get an 'anoy-a-tron' from Think Geek. It definitely lives up to it's name

Or an EASY button from staples, so that everytime you walk her through something and she does it, you can hit the button and say 'That was easy'...either that or get a fart machine...one or two button presses on that, and she wont want to sit next to you for sure.

ehh i hate people that dont know what they are doing on computers its like how did you get this job...

we have a company upstairs that has the same owners but they run totally separate and our department just moved in to this really nice office and we have a lot of extra cubical. so the manager from upstairs calls my manager and was like since you have some extra space can i move someone down there bc no one up here likes her. and my boss was like absolutely not why should my people have to deal with another annoying person we already have enough as it is!
