Monday morning in the office is actually pleasant for once. The group of cackling hyenas is nowhere to be heard.
Blissful
I've started going in Wednesdays since I basically have the place to myself. Its amazing.
Our Wednesdays are very busy here. Bosses actually encourage more people to come in for socialising and shit. Hard pass from me.
Today is deader than normal, I'll enjoy it before the inevitable return of the herd next week.
I hate the Hyena's at my work. Very little self awareness and obsessed only with themselves.
I'm fine with people being loud in the lunch room and such but having a loud chat at someone's desk and distracting others is a big no-no. One of our directors is on my side and has been sending reminders on proper office behaviour (as per our guidelines). Not sure if the hyena pack read them or not.
I remember this one time a staff member and I were watching a video quietly and one of the hyenas got annoyed at the video music and asked to turn it off.
Moments later the Hyena cackles and laughs many times louder than what we were watching on our phone.
I've never forgiven her for that because she doesn't care about anyone but themselves.
I don't seem to have the rowdy crowd at my work either, today. It is rather pleasant. Hopefully tomorrow will be the same.

We've got about 50% of normal Monday staff in today. I'm guessing people are getting hit with the flu and covid still
