WE = ME

WE
Pronunciation: 'wE
Function: pronoun, plural in construction
Etymology: Middle English, from Old English wE; akin to Old High German wir we, Sanskrit vayam
1 : I and the rest of a group that includes me : you and I : you and I and another or others : I and another or others not including you -- used as pronoun of the first person plural; compare I, OUR, OURS, US
2 : 1I -- used by sovereigns; used by writers to keep an impersonal character

I just realized that working here in this power crazed office.. very often is this word used and very seldom does it really hold the real meaning.. we = us = everybody... We are printing more lists to give out to customers (translation: You are printing lists, you are printing the envelopes, you are going to put them inside, place stamps and bring them downstairs).. I really don't have any problem if they say it outright.. with a please or a can.. can you print more lists so we can give it to our customers..  please print more lists.. but no.. WE ARE PRINTING MORE LISTS.. like yeah... print it yourself mwahaha... WE NEED TO GET THE MAIL.. WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THIS... WE NEED TO PICK THIS UP FROM THEM.. WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THE BILLS... WE NEED TO FOLLOW UP ON THIS... all translates to OLLIE GET THE MAIL, TAKE CARE OF THIS, PICK THIS UP FROM THEM... WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THE BILLS.. WE NEED TO FOLLOW UP ON THIS... NOW, NOW, NOW... I'm not complaining about doing everything.. I'm glad to get out of the office but please.. stop announcing to the freaking office and whoever hears you that you are included in the task coz there's no way in hell do I see you doing anything that you announce US doing.. and the very classic announcement... WHO WANTS TO GO AND DO THIS.. like there is a fucking poll in the office that OLLIE will not do it.. that some lazy ass bitch will do it for me..

And please CLEAN YOUR EARS... I SPEAK ENGLISH.. not chinese, not tagalog, not hebrew and not spanish.. ENGLISH... I don't know why in freaking hell don't u understand me..

What brought this on.. my boss was on vacation again.. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't leave me with these power hungry fools.. it's like me training a know-it-all, i'm the boss when the boss is not here, i want to know everything person  everytime my boss leaves... wahhhhhhhh......... heeeelllppp hahaha...
