2 things that bother me

Nice cheesy omeltes this morning. What would you like in your omelet? I'm having mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, dill havarti & cheddar cheese. *burp*

Two completely unrelated things I hate:

The best pasta dishes are fattening. They are loaded with butter and/or olive oil.

I hate coworkers that pass the buck. The famous "it's not my job" line gets old real fast. I'm the person that ends up with a problem in my lap because everyone KNOWS I'll take care of it. This has always served me well in terms of work reputation & I'm sure has helped me advance in my jobs, however, it feels "doormatish" at times. And it keeps happening because I continue to allow it to. Yesterday I at least voiced my displeasure to everyone involved. That was a step.

I can't stand co-workers like that. They need to do their part. Don't you get tired of doing other people's jobs when they get paid alot more and play while you work your butt off.

Bravie said...

I would like bacon, spinach, onions and some sort of white cheese in my omellete, please.

I never understood "that's not my job". Unless it has to do with answering the phone. I hate to answer the phone so I just don't. It's not my job. *grin*

At home, taking out the garbage is not my job. I think I have taken out the garbage a total of 6 times in our 15 years together. It's not my job. *grin*

I love pasta. And you're right, the best kind is fattening. :( I was going to make some whole wheat pasta last night, and throw in some broccoli and chicken, with only some Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray and parmesan cheese, but then DH came home with some freakin' cheese ravioli. *sigh* My *almost* healthy meal became a not so healthy mean. Damn men!

Schnookie said...

Oh yum! I'll have bacon, tomatoes and cheese in my omellette please.

I love, love, love pasta dishes.

Around here, there's no way you could get away with saying it's not my job. You just do it. Mind you, there are still a lot of peeps around here that won't do something, thinking it's not their job, They just find another way of getting out of it.

Carey, I agree about the phone. I hate that. What I hate most is that I never know how to use the phone system correctly.

Bravie said...

I just act crabby and rude so they don't want me to answer the phone.

May I also add artichoke hearts to my omelette?

HistoryDetective said...

I'm with you on the pasta, especially since I really love cream sauces. (No, that is not code.)

Spinach, Tomatoes and Monterey Jack Cheese.

And since I'm not having any chocolate or sweetened iced tea, I would like some Hollandaise sauce on the side.

I hate:

1. Diaper Rash. Not on me. But Conner is having one, and it's awful. He abused the juice policy over the weekend when his aunt was watching him. Now he's pooping a lot. He's never had a rash that lasted more than a few hours. This one, two days. It's between his cheeks, which is kind of comical to watch. I think I'm gonna have to let him run around naked. Which should be very interesting considering he doesn't like to be without socks. He hates being nekkid.

2. I hate women who think they have to be super bitches just to get ahead on the corporate world. Boo <------ been catching more flies with honey since forever.

kim (weltek) said...

Carey, you have to provide the artichokes. I've been checking them out around here ever since you told me how to cook them. I can't find a decent one.

kim (weltek) said...

Good one, boo. The uber corporate bitches such. I think many of them kind of like having that persona.

I did not know that excess juice makes kids poop.

Glowie said...

just mushrooms and cheese for me please. ooh! onions and green peppers if you have them.

I haven't had past in sooooo long.

I used to do that at my old job. I ended up doing the work of 10 people and not even getting paid for one.

*smooch*

Glowie said...

umm. I meant I haven't had pastA in so long.

*wrinkles nose at mushrooms hanging out in blog*

I love omelettes, but I always overfill them.

I will have asiago, chedder and mozzarella and asparagus and bacon and fresh finely chopped chives.

I really want to add tomatoes and avocado and spinich, but I won't.

I'd also like to point out that dead co-workers don't slack off anymore.

Surveysez said...

Please may I have cheddar cheese in my omlet? And a quality strawberry jam to spread on it. And buttered toast - no jam. I would make it myself, but that's not my job.

Bravie said...

They aren't really in season right now, Kim.

kim (weltek) said...

Ok, avocados & strawberry jam do not belong in or on omelets. Freaks.

Surveysez said...

Oh come on - who doesn't like fruit with cheese? Do you have jam on toast when you have an omlet? I just really, really like the flavour of a hot cheese omlet and the cool stawberry jam. (And only strawberry.)

kim (weltek) said...

Freak.

Bravie said...

Ooooh, I forgot about avocados. I want those too.

kim (weltek) said...

Not you, too?!?!

Bravie said...

I ate two avocados as a snack yesterday. With a dash of salt. Mmmmmmmmmm.

Zombs said...

Survey!!! At last! Someone who appreciates strawberry jam on eggs and only strawberry jam!

Note: I do not put it on friend eggs. Just scrambled and omlettes.

Salty/sweet. mmmmm...

Surveysez said...

Yay Zombs! Apparently we freaks have to stick together. And you're right, definately not on fried eggs.

Freaks of the world, unite!

Swami said...

*sits with Bob* I would like any combination of items that does NOY include mushrooms.

When doing other peoples work it is important that you get the credit for it. If not, then make a big stink.

Swami <--has morrell mushrooms here & there in her yard and just ignores them.

kim (weltek) said...

Swami, there are like, laws against that, or something.

You could at least sell them for a pretty penny.

At this age, he should really only have 8 oz. max, but that can be diluted with water to give him 16 oz.

He had about 40!

And at this age, he doesn't need to have it full strentgh. That cuold be real bad. At least it's not explosive.

He also abused the cheese policy. I think he's got some issues down there.
