 Posted: 06/12/03 - 10:24 Post subject: Nicknames of co-workers who don't know they have them.
To keep the insanity from reaching new levels I gotten into the habit of creating names of people at work.
Here's a few and their descriptions.
M&M (better known as Mellon & Munchinkin)
Mellon is a tall balding Sales manager. Munchinkin is the short Tele Mkt manager.
Or.
Then there's Enron.
He's our other sales manager who every month if his department is short their goals by less than 5, wants us to back-date some pending orders to get him monthly bonus goal.
Then there's Frida
Based on Frida Kahlo:

we have names for everyone but they are all known. Nothing secret or sacred at the P.D.

It's possible. "Smiles to Your Face" is the worst.
I made another up for my (soon -to-be-ex) boss the other day..

the librarian and I refer to one of the classroom teachers as "They're All Yours" (in a whiny, drawn out voice) She just can't stand kids, and when she escorts them to our doors, that is what she says..... in front of them, as if she can't wait to get rid of them

Morph,
does "Frida" have a Uni-Brow? I've loved Frida Kahlo's art for years. My daughter just wrote a paper on her for school, fascinating life, and very strange.

Most everyone here has a name we call each other to our faces...
The best one we got is a woman who is called Birthday Cake (cause everyone's had a piece). That one makes me giggle everytime.

No... he didn't work here long enough for me to slip up and say it to him.

Yes she does.
The hard part is when she talks in meetings and the urge to giggle
or snort out loud is tough to hold back.
