Default All day I have to listen to this womans COUGHing and COUGHing and COUGHing..

...and COUGHing and COUGHing and COUGHing. Christ, it's driving me up the wall. We're not talk about any little polite theatre cough here. Not even regular coughing, oh no. We're talking about industrial sized, wide lung bellow-coughing. I mean this stuff has some back bone in it, and I can feel the vibrations in my desk, and I'm two cubes away.

I really wanna say "Hey bitch! Go get your freakin' lungs removed already!", but I don't wanna be rude, ya know.

Why does she have to have lungs removed? Why don't you rip off your ears?

Maybe she got a hairball going down on her wooly-mammoth-of-a-husband this morning, and is trying to hack it up and give it to you as a present.


Jeebus, that sounded just a bit too OLMEK.

Perhaps someone in the office is wearing to much cologne/perfume and she's having a reaction to it.

I have an idea, do what I did to this guy that wore to much Cologne. Leave a note on her desk that says "Not to be rude, but your coughing is really loud. Could you please be a little quieter or go to the bathroom?"
I left a note on that guys desk saying I could smell him when I got to work in the morning. And he worked on the 1st floor and i was on the second floor.
U could really smell him coming, so one day I left a note saying "Not to be rude but If you mind, could you please use less cologne or none at all. I can smell you coming a mile away. And us women aren't really turned on to that." Course i'm a guy but I was using the reverse phsycology thing. I didn't smell him much after that.

You should have said:

"Nice cologne. But must you marinate in it?"

Just give it some time, and you will be hacking and rattling your lungs as well.

Yeah, approach HR, that is what they are there for. Also I'd bring up the health concerns from her coughing like that...

OMG She's actually leaving sick for the day. HAHA! Success and I didn't even have to get outta my chair.

Damn, I should try posting about other stuff I don't like and see if that works.



I'm tired of being broke!...
