Shut UP to the people who come into my workplace!

Almost the first thing you see when you walk onto the premises is a big, wide, welcoming staircase. Do you know how annoying it is to hear "I didn't know you had an upstairs!" at least five times a day EVERY DAY?

People tended to leave the door open when entering, which got really old really fast, so we installed a closing mechanism. It's a bit over-zealous, closing the door with a loud bang every time, but better that than shivering in the wind and having to walk over to close it ourselves every time. Except EVERYONE APOLOGISES FOR SLAMMING THE DOOR. Absolutely nothing wrong with the intention or even the action, but the fact I hear it dozens of times a day means I get REALLY FED UP with it. Now there is ever an "it's not you, it's the door, it does it to everyone" and a brittle smile on my lips, hoping that one day everyone will get the hint and stop talking about it.

Now, business isn't as great as it could be. There's a recession on. Our product is cheap and easy to get on the internet, and the big chain stores have fantastic offers. Us being a small independent, we have to choose our stock carefully. We only get in what we're reasonably sure will sell, and we only spend what we can afford to spend in doing so. So yeah, the shelves are pretty empty. But we do our best, and I don't appreciate the rude, accusatory tones when you demand to know "are you closing?! You don't have as much as you used to!". Yes, well, as I just said, I can order in anything you would like and it'll come tomorrow, but I CANNOT PULL STOCK OUT OF MY *ASS* AND I DON'T APPRECIATE YOU TALKING TO ME LIKE THIS.

So, three day weekend, that'll be nice. ^_^

I'll repeat my post, because I don't think it was deleted for any reason-it happens a lot here.

I said shut up to the people who don't bother to read a thread before posting the exact same thing someone else just posted!

And I say: shut up to the people who don't bother to read a thread before posting the exact same thing someone else just posted!

I don't like my friend's boyfriend. And thus, this "shut up" is directed towards him.

Shut up, friend's boyfriend.

No one wants to hear you pick out her faults or tell her to "shut up".

You're not very likeable. And that takes a lot for me to say that. But you're just not. You come off as rude, controlling, and a pain in the butt.

I hope and pray that I never have to share a car ride with you again.

Please shut up to clients who don't have time to talk about their deals, which simply "must" get signed up immediately, at all, or until 9:00 at night, because they are too busy sailing, or attending baseball games and the like, when I am sitting here working around the clock (literally on some days) and had to cancel my summer vacation. And, while I'm on the subject, as I'm not really a brain surgeon, and no one is going to die or suffer terrible harm if this huge transaction doesn't close immediately, shut up to all those who impose ridiculously stupid deadlines, just because they can. If anyone is thinking of attending law school and practicing at a NYC law firm, run while you still have the chance (or just tell me to shut up....)

I don't tell you how to sing and dance, you don't tell me how to do wigs.

STFU, really.

Ah, the good ol' stfu thread...

Shut up, apprentice at the Barrow Group who obviously hates actors yet sits in on auditions. Get lost. Be a producer or something, but don't bring your foul energy into the auditioning process.

Shut up, incredibly and annoyingly creaky door to Shetler Studios. Someone put some WD40 on that thing already!

Shut up, town hall gun toters. Shut up, rain. Shut up, lack of motivation.

I just want to say "thank you" to those of you who contributed to this thread today. I had a crappy day at work and your posts made me laugh, which in turn made me feel a whole lot better.

Shut up to the people who think that just because a person dies, they should automatically be regarded as a Legend, when they barely gave a crap about the person when they were alive.

A friend of mine needs to shut up about her working situation. She got hired as a teacher at an elementary school right out of college, so she's lucky there. However, she's going on and on how she ended up being tranferred over to her number 2 choice school in the same school district because enrollment was down where she was hired. Sure, it is frustrating to have to get used to another school, but she was only at the first for a week, and she still has a job.

Shut up to the people to who think they are God's gift to the earth. You obviously are not that amazing. I don't understand why think you're so awesome. Nobody thinks that. So please stop.

SHUT UP, guy I knew in high school, who wants to come to NYC so he can schmooze with a bunch of people who will hopefully produce his project, who tells me all about his plans for his visit with all these people.

Except I'm not invited to any of these events. BUT he does want to spare whatever leftover time he has picking my brain about NYC so he can research his stupid project. And, he asked me to find him a place to stay.

Haven't seen the guy since high school, and I'm going to continue that tradition.

Shut up original post for disappearing. Grr!

Anyway, as my post disappeared, the elementary school in my town is going to close on October 1st because of the powerlines. The school board made this decision. There has been an ongoing battle with some of the parents about new powerlines that are supposed to be put in, and their concern with higher risks of cancer and EMFs. Of course, millions of dollars were spent to put a new addition onto the school, that was built closer to the powerlines. And the lines are all the way on top of a hill where children are not allowed to go.

What's also funny is that the school district has no clue what to do with the kids right now, and the kids are allowed in the school until it gets closed. It makes sense, right? It's also hilarious because many student, including me, went there years and years ago, and nobody cared about the EMF levels.

A rather specific STFU to a couple of passengers on my recent flight. YES, the team of 19yo baseball players were adorable - some would say 'a porn film waiting to happen'. BUT, to the two blousy, 40ish women who drank the entire flight, and spent their time showing their sagging cleavage, bad teeth and obvious slight education to these boys - loudly - STFU!

Honestly, some of us were busy with our own fantasies, and your raucus and boorish behavior made it difficult to concentrate.

Shut up to all the annoying ass jocks in my school that think they are better than me because I actually wear nice clothes to school and am into art. SHUT UP. I'm not less of a person than you.

You know, Q....Stockard and I MAY have had a few too many cocktails on that airplane, but come on...We BOTH went to college. Slight education, indeed.

My friend needs to shut up. I know he means well, but he tells me things that are incredibly hurtful - most of which have to do with my current relationship status.

It doesn't really help as it confuses me and now I'm on the verge of tears.

Shut up, Republicans.

Shut up, CEO of my company, who 'feels our pain' re: our mandatory three week furloughs and cuts to 401K contributions when you make over $30 million a year. (before your bonus) Don't say that. You may not mean to sound condescending, but that's how it comes across.

Shut up, "hot mess." You were a fun phrase for a hot minute, but your fifteen minutes were up after Christian Siriano won Project Runway. Ditto "hot buttered mess."

Shut up, Jon and Kate Gosselin. You are both selfish, sh-tty parents, you are both at fault and you both make me sick.

Shut up, Shamwow.

Shut up to my former roommate for "liking" everything I have put up in my facebook status lately. She even did it twice about seeing Bye Bye Birdie last week, which I think she was only impressed with because of John Stamos. And today, she did it over me winning a basket of cat stuff from a raffle. I guess it just mostly annoys me how it's impossible to have a normal two way conversation with her that doesn't get awkward.

Shut up lady carrying a designer purse complaining about the price of her Chai latte. Just because they mischarged or undercharged you at the Starbucks in Dominick's does not mean that I am wrong. In fact, I am right, and if I did not charge you for the soy milk and extra flavor you politely (ppppppsh) asked me to use, I would have gotten in trouble. So SHUT UP!
