    I'm the young one.

    I'm the most sarcastic/snarky one.

    I'm the "go to for any question on earth" one...."Hey do you know why the sky is blue?"

    I'm the movie and music reference girl.

    The one who is smiling bright and early at 6:45am and ALWAYS answers "fantastic" when asked how I'm doing. It drives those who suffer from SUTAS crazy:)

    Jim from the office.
    I'm always playing practical jokes.


    we have a guy we call "repeat" not to his face of course.
    he is an extroverted thinker and can't process things in his mind.
    he has to say them out loud, usually repeatedly.
    so every decision he makes at work, gets ran by you, multiple times.
    so annoying

    Not working right now but I was always the funny one. ( I specialize in self-deprecating humor.) I am also the one people come to to complain about theri boss, co-worker and Significant other. I'm not sure why because I say things like, " He's the boss you don't have to like it you just have to do it." Sorry, but that's real life. I am also kind of like Cliff Claven from Cheers. I know alot of stuff about a lot of unimportant things. So, the trivia person.

    2) The guy who gets along with everyone. Mostly I just joke around a lot to ease the tension because I don't want to be one of those guys who gets shot in his office. :P
    1)This is me too. In my last review my boss wrote, "you are the only person who gets along with everyone" and I did tell one co-worker, "If you come back with a gun someday, remember I was nice to you".
    2)Groovy Granny
    3) the one who does Tai Chi

    I am

    The one that the older ladies seem to have a crush on.
    Practical joker.
    Go to person when the bickering ladies want to vent.
    The one with the most computers and computer screens.
    The computer and printer trouble shooter.
    The coffee connoisseur.
    I used to be the one to make up nicknames for people but that didn't go over so well. We had SlowGary, BitterDebbie, JargonslingerVic, MysteryLinda... no one knew what this lady did for work but she worked in our office...., BitterPat.

    When I worked in the office, I was the young one (me being 23 at the time and the closest age to me was 41), I was the quirky one with all the hats, the sarcastic one, the cold one (always complaining to turn the heat on or the air off, wearing gloves and my jacket in the office).
