My children are the worst coworkers that I have ever had

Anonymous
My coworker keeps asking to review her work every 30 seconds. I have my own work to do lady!

My three co-workers refuse to follow the 6 foot social distancing rule as the 2 YO seems to want to climb back into my womb. Instead of putting their noses to the grindstone there is now a huge pile of dress ups on the floor. My four weeks of office snack inventory is now down to about a week and orange Cheeto's finger prints are all over the couch. We've only been at this for a week and I'm thinking about requesting they get transferred to another office (Nana's!) or selling them on Ebay. But there isn't much I can really do because I hired them thus "I have to accept responsibility for their performance." Sometimes being management really sucks!

Mine requires a bum wipe while I’m on conference calls.

My coworker has a serious disagreement with management about the afternoon nap mandate.

My new co-worker is kinda an a$$hole. He won’t let me sing to the Frozen and Frozen2 songs while he gets to sing as much as he wants.

Must be an accountant. They are all like that.

Mine is learning to beatbox in his cubicle. I keep hearing about boots and cats and watching spit fly everywhere.

My coworker expects fun team building activities (with prizes) every day. The ‘themes’ are announced at the end of the previous day of course. In response to queries about where I will find supplies for said activities, my coworker expresses blind trust in my abilities.

As a good worker bee I agreed to set up an Easter egg hunt for today, but declined to repeat the event tomorrow.

My coworker told me poopy jokes non-stop when I was trying to work. He did not use an inside voice. Also insisted that I watch him pee in a toilet because this is new for him. The horror!

My coworker keeps telling my other coworker to 'get psyched in the face.'

The other coworker keeps telling the offending coworker to 'go jump in a landfill'.

Times are a-changing folks. Office etiquette is nothing like it used to be.

My youngest coworker has refused to take her assigned break period and is instead treating me as a jungle gym. I've locked myself in the bathroom to escape.

My coworkers would watch youtube all day if I didn't peer over their shoulders and get them back on task.

I have convinced my coworkers that I can see everything on their screen at any given moment. The honesty is frightful.

my littlest coworker ran up while I was on a conference call the other day--we're pretty lax about this and lots of people have other "coworkers" appearing on calls. I thought she was leaning in to give me a hug. Then she pulled up my shirt and did a huge prolonged raspberry/farting noise on my tummy. Awesome.

I so relate!

My youngest (2.5) ran up while I was on a conference call yesterday - answering a long question, so not muted - and yelled "Mommy FARTS" about 3 or 4 times in a row. (I'm pretty sure an older brother instigated this...)

I have no idea if my boss, and my boss' boss, who were on the call along with a couple coworkers, could hear/understand. But I'm so glad it was phone-only and not video so they couldn't see my face.
