Pulling a Costanza - Office Interpersonal Habits

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

At the crossroads of the No Shoes at Work thread and my recieving the 5th season of Seinfeld set yesterday, I got to thinking...I pull the George move of telling a joke, getting a laugh, and leaving WAY too frequently. I wonder if someone else has ever picked up on my (seemingly) compulsive need to say something funny before leaving a room?

Any other annoying officer interpersonal habits that you see in yourself and/or others that merit mention?

I'll start - "So, watchya eatin'?"

There was a comedy routine on an English skit show called Smack the Pony about this very thing. The guy in the skit would come up with a quip and leave the room - but could not open the door, and was left struggling with it until someone helped him.

Wasn't that in Big Train?

I often end up saying 'You're SOOO good looking' after someone sneezes at work. None of them no Seinfeld that well so I get some odd looks in response.

Yes, sorry, it probably was Big Train.
