I don't see our customers and I don't have the passion to interact with my obnoxious workmates.

Antagonize them. Are they close to you? Start whistling. My coworkers don't seem to like that very much.

That's because I don't work there.

I think one of my work mates was trying to seduce me into ****ing her while her man was out of town and I felt weirded out by the idea of meeting her 14 year old daughter but almost regret not doing it anyways.

Then there was that other lady who was all over me and kept recording videos of me on her phone when I wasn't watching that annoyed the **** out of me because she kept doing that Surenos whistle and went on this rant about how her boy friend and her son who was my age were both 'rowdy n*****s'.

I'd take most members here over these old ladies.

Lot of cougar claws thrown my way too.

Worst day in a long time.

The crux of our lawsuit with both Megacorp and the China company is based around the Exclusive Distributor Agreement we signed with the China company back in 1998.

Basically they agreed that my company had exclusive rights to sell and distribute any products that we designed on behalf of our customers in the North American territories. We design and then buy products from the China company, pay them, and then re-sell them over here.

After 2 whole years of litigation one of the China factory's lawyers based here in LA stumbled across a very new provision in the California business codes which states:

Except as provided in this chapter, every contract by which anyone is restrained from engaging in a lawful profession, trade, or business of any kind is to that extent void.

Today, after hearing arguments from both sides, the trial judge basically yanked the foundation out from under our house. Now we're left to pick through the rubble and decide if it's worth moving forward.

I feel like I just got gut punched by Mike Tyson in his prime.

I've had the customers hit on me too.

I got entertainment from sneaking up behind people and making load gun noises. Or just yelling "AHHH SKEET SKEET SKEET SKEET"

I wonder whether all this workplace flirting is just more of an american thing or whether I'm just oblivious/unapproachable/ugly.

I think some people are just delusional. Most people don't seem to be in any hurry to associate with their coworkers beyond small talk and banter to make the day go by quicker.
