Shut the fuck up!!!!
As a consultant I am in a position whereby I am working out of 2 offices. There's our office, which is nice and quiet and very good for getting shit done.... and there's the client's office where I am currently spending the majority of my time. The clients office is a typical office environment with cubicles and fast internet, and, unfortunately, lots of people. I say unfortunately, because most of these people could do with a nice big cup of SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!
It got so bad today that I came within moments of standing up and yelling exactly that... SHUT THE FUCK UP!!! Everywhere around me all I could here was these fucking morons dribbling on about completely irrelevant and self involved shit. The noise was incredible and I couldn't concentrate, think, or do anything at all. Luckily, just moments shy of yelling at everyone I grabbed my ipod, stuck in the ear phones and pressed play. Moments later I could feel the insanity ebbing away, slowly being replaced by an ability to concentrate.
Needless to say I purchased a case of imported beer and have started to drink it in the hope that after a few hours I won't even remember today, let alone relive it in my dreams.
Now I think I shall try find some photos for a new, non ranting post.

That drives me insane as well! I just want to be left alone when I'm at work. I hate it when people mill around in here and talk about stuff too loud. I found my noise cancelling headphones really helped me last stint.
Bout time you bloody posted!
i got sooo good at tuning people out when i worked in a busy office that someone could walk directly up to me and have to shout at me to get my attention.
no ipod was needed. i'm THAT good.
