Here's a tip on how best to utterly piss me off: Waste my time.

Better yet waste my time on difficult, meaningless work that will ultimately have no return.

And then when I call you up to let you know that the work you've assigned to me - BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE CAN DO IT - tell me "yeah, we assumed it was going to be pointless. thanks for doing it."

goddamn motherfucker. my blood pressure went up a couple notches, I have a headache and a couple new gray hairs for your ass!!! FUCK YOU


the company should fire you just on the basis of this task you sent me. We are going to lose so much money because of the shit you keep making me do. AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGG


You fucking asshole, don't waste our time on stupid shit like a fucking valet parking service based out of Texas and Mexico!!! If you know we'll never recoup the money it takes to create a proposal, DON'T TAKE ON THEIR WORTHLESS ACCOUNT!


Dear reader you might not realize this but I've met the woman who created the task. She's always polite and tries to commiserate when she sends me pointless tasks. There is nothing I can do about having my time wasted like this except daydream about repeatedly pounding her head against the concrete.

Oddly, that does make me feel mildly better.
