There's someone at work here who every few days or so is on the phone with his wife complaing/fighting/worrying about $. They talk about it for a while, then hang up. In about 2 hours they are talking again and trying to figure out what restaurant they should go to that night, whether or not they have enough cigarettes for the evening, which one of them needs the new car, or whether they should go see a movie after eating out. My favorite is "what was for lunch today? Oh, Quiznos, was it good? Yeah I went to the restaraunt next door and had a BLT when I was done eating I smoked a pack of cigarettes" etc etc etc.


It drives me nuts. Quit smoking, eat in, cancel the cable and quit complaining.

Would it be possible to tell that "someone at my work" to take their convo elsewhere or DIAF?

Haha, if it were possible I would. We sit pretty close to each other. Even as such, convos suh as those don't belong in the office. But it's not my place to call them out on it.

You all are a tough crowd. I love it.
