Your work situation (7 Viewers)

I love my new job, it is sometimes frustrating but can safely say it is my favourite job other than working in the bookshop back in the day. I bumped into Mumblin' Deaf Ro' just today and we're going to go for coffee soon. I really like the people I am working with and the vaguely creative/intellectual aspect that is required of me. I will probably hate it in a few months time (such is life) but any sense of impostor syndrome I had in roles gone by is gone.

delighted for you!
you fucking hated your old job!

The ECDL has really upped its game.

I've been assigned a task at work that I'm really not comfortable doing. I've got no experience or training in this rather stressful task and I think I'm absolutely the wrong person to do it. They've assigned the task to me because no one else wants to do it. What's the best approach in telling them I'm not comfortable doing it?

One of my colleagues is heavily pregnant and keeps farting. We're all doing a great job of ignoring it.

Call her on it. Pregnancy is no excuse for workplace flatulence

The guy next to be keeps shaking dandruff on to the desk with his hand and examining it. Sure, what harm, I suppose.
