Seems to me like JHo has some things on her mind and would like some advice and/or answers. I think she could use a thread devoted to that very purpose.
So, JHo, I'm giving you the reins from here... ask away.
Well I wasn't completely serious. I have been having a rough couple of weeks with work so I was looking for an outlet. But I realize a public internet forum isn't the best way to air my grievances/issues... especially since I know most of the regular posters on a personal basis
So what you need is someone you don't know so well.
*flips open sign*
Yes, kind of. I mostly need someone to tell me it's perfectly normal/totally crazy to let work upset me as much as it does. And that it's ok/not ok to be OCD about work stuff.

And why not? Everyone else does.
Well mostly because most people know where I work... and also because I'm pretty sure a co-worker reads the boards. And I don't want people to think I'm not grateful to have a job (I am).

How about...
pats you on the head saying "there there, you'll be alright?"
You should see the looks I get when I sit at a conference table and spend an hour or more cursing and re-stapling documents that are sent to me. The staple is not in the right place, or the person didn't put the document in the correct logical order before stapling it, or the pages were not matched up evenly when they were stapled. That shit drives me fucking nuts.
Thankfully I am not OCD about much else, just the way my digital music collection is organized and such.

I get the out-of-order and not-evenly-matched complaints, but you lose me from the start with the staple not being in the right place. I'm pretty sure you would not approve of the places I put my staples.
When I thought about that in my mind it sounded a little less weird than when I typed it out.

It's sounds kinda kinky actually... I think I am going to sig that. hehe.

The staple should be confined to a 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch square in the top left corner, it should be perpindicular with the top edge of the page, and their should only be one staple conjoining a multipage document.
Wanting your spelling, grammar, and presentation to be correct isn't necessarily OCD. I would call that professionalism.
Exactly what I was going to post. Don't let the buffoons of the world drag you down. I work as a PM in construction and I get emails published by company executives (that go out to clients) with all sorts of misspellings and grammar mistakes. I hate knowing that by being copied on those idiotic emails I'm associated with them by the client.
I understand, I'm kind of the same way. I think the guy in charge of the recall field office is sick of me editing his volunteer packets etc. as if I'm grading an English paper. That shit just bothers me, you know?

YES! It bothers me, too because I was an English major. I know people make mistakes, but how HARD is it to double check something before you plaster it on the internet for hundreds of others to see? It makes our company and our team look unprofessional.
