Usually it isn't a big deal because we have other people here, but this is a special day when people want to quit with no notice and take a day off for no reason ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/short-staffed-today#post-172076 Tue, 29 May 2012 12:08:46 +0000 chopsuey 172076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: My boss used to be the SAME WAY! I got my first ever UTI/bladder infection because I couldn't get up from my desk to pee during my first week on the job! -.-<br /> After that I said SCREW IT. And went to the bathroom whenever I wanted to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/short-staffed-today#post-172072 Tue, 29 May 2012 12:05:35 +0000 DillonLion 172072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Tell my boss that. He doesn't want the phones to be unanswered during business hours......EVER. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/short-staffed-today#post-172070 Tue, 29 May 2012 12:04:48 +0000 chopsuey 172070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh that sucks! Make sure you take your bathrooom breaks! Let the phones ring! They'll call back if it's important. :P<br /> And make sure to eat too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/short-staffed-today#post-172061 Tue, 29 May 2012 12:01:00 +0000 DillonLion 172061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There are usually four people that work in my office (1 attorney, 3 staff people). One of our employees quit a couple of weeks ago, and the office manager took the day off today (even though he had the day off yesterday! And we are already short one person! Grr.). </p> <p>So, we are down to just me and the attorney. And we are seriously short staffed. Phew! I didn't have time to eat breakfast this morning. I just wolfed down my lunch during my 5 minute break I took, and now the boss is gone to take his lunch break. And I've had to go to the bathroom all day. But there hasn't been time. The phone has been ringing off the hook. I have a ton of work to do, and there are a bunch of clients coming in later this afternoon. </p> <p>Just wanted to complain! Thanks for listening. :) </p>
