Today was not the day for our coworker Bertha. It started off just as a normal day. We all get to the office and get settled in with our coffee and agendas. A few of us headed over to the conference room for our weekly meeting and when we got back we realized Bertha must have overslept.

We called her up and no answer. This is a typical thing with Bertha as you all well know know. We tried again, still no answer. Off to lunch we go. Maybe she will come in this afternoon. She does whatever she wants anyway!

We get back from lunch and there she is in all her glory. Acting as if she wasn’t late to work. We are so annoyed, just as anyone else would be if they had to work with someone like this. I mean seriously where is your sense of responsibility girl?!

Monica needs her help scanning a few things for a newsletter she was working on. Would you believe that Bertha lost her ever loving mind all because Monica asked for her help. RIDICULOUS. She gave her the silent of treatment of silent treatments. It was like someone literally turned her off. She sat there with a blank stare and wouldn’t make a peep.

This went on for a good couple of hours. I think she got even more mad when Monica gave up and went and asked Bertha’s friend Agnes for help with the scanning. You see they are friends but Bertha kinda thinks that Agnes is a brown noser and is trying to take the top seat in our office. Right now Agnes works in the common area and doesn’t get any type of quite time to get her work done.

When Monica walked back into our office, Bertha started spitting at her. Repeatedly. Like alot! Can you believe that? So gross. She was also growling and looked as though she was having a seizure. (I know she wasn’t so don’t jump to any conclusions – she just has anger issues) We ended up having to turn her off and send her to take a nap. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for Bertha. Actually, hopefully Bertha’s contract will be up soon and we can watch her ride off into the sunset. Until then!
