Mini work vent

I don't like V8 juice. Simply put. It's just not my cup of tea.

In the soda machine at work we have 8 options. Up until about a month ago it was 7 sodas and various fruit juices. One day the vendor by request of whomever changed the fruit juices up for V8. I won't lie, for a minute I complained loudly about the change. I don't really do soda like that and I was one that purchased the juices out of the machine on the regular.

I wrote a sticky and stuck it on the soda machine. The sticky said "May we please have the option of juice again, Thank you". The vendor took it to mean that I wanted them to switch out the V8 with the juice so that is what they did last week. I was misunderstood!!!!! I just wanted the OPTION of juice again, they could have taken any one of the SEVEN SODA choices, kept the V8, and everyone would be cool.

So now all the V8 lovers got there panties/boxers in a bunch cuz they switched it out and they think it's all MY fault! Ain't nothing my fault!!!!! I just asked for the option! Nothing in my sticky said take that veggie juice out and put fruit juice in...NOTHING!

I went up personally to 2 of my coworkers that like it and let them know, yes I complained about them taking the juice out, yes I wanted it back, but I didn't say take their precious V8 out the machine!

I JUST WANTED MY OPTION BACK!!!!!

I am not the only one, just the only one that spoke on it!

*end vent*

I like v8 splash not the tomato stuff. But I still have to mix it up with a lil sumethin sumethin.

I want to say that I have tried the splash but I can't say for sure.

But it's just blowing me how folks are tripping. If I said I wanted their stuff out and mine in THEN I could understand, but I didn't!

Just walk by all of them and give them all the middle finger. LOL @ them getting mad at you. Maybe you're going to have an office meeting or something and go to the vendor with a united front. Then again the co-workers can just be mad at you or get together and get rid of the juice. It could become such a mess that the vendor only puts in water and milk.

Who would've thought Ladynay was a rabble-rouser. You better have security walk you out for the next couple of days. LOL!

i dont care for v8 either.. but those v8 drinkers... if they really have an issue, tell them to put up a sticky themsevles.. and if they dont, then tough shit for them :-)

Ladynay said...

I like the way you think TTD! If they want it back then they need to ask for it like I did! Hmph!

wilson, north carloina, omg... the most BORING place ever! but i though of you when we passed through kuz i know you're from NC :-) I don't like v8 splash, but i like the tomato juice :-) weird huh?

And i like the sticky idea! Maybe that will get more ppl to listen to me...

Ladynay said...

Mel, What in the heck were you doing driving through WILSON of all places???? There isn't anything in Wilson, but you know that! LOL

I had the orchard blend splash yesterday and it wasn't bad. You are not weird...well at least not in that respect ;-P

Hassan, ROFL they are not veggie loving bastards. I am a veggie lover, I just don't do the traditional V8 juice.

Your right, it's not my fault. If they want the V8 back in the machine they can ask.

it's always hilarious when ppl trip about the smallest of things. and, really, if they have to have nasty V8 (i do like the Splash), they should bring it from home.

they'll get be ok...

Girl yesterday all I could think was that it wasn't that serious! Truth be told, I could have just started bringing my own various juices to work but I was just used to getting them out the machine *shrug*

They sure will be okay!
