My work colleagues

[MadWorld74]

are a bunch of hormonal busy bodies who are all on power trips......any tips on dealing with them? (I myself am a female but am not on a power trip nor am hormonal nor a busy body....)

[Brendan]

Is it possible for men to be hormonal? I woke up (not hung-over or anything) today and I have been cranky and irritated all day and I can?t stop eating.

[KalamityKel]

Arnt men permanantly hormONal? :-$

Mad sweetheart... just have a really loud outburst of growling, grunting and throw a few things around... that'll teach 'em a thing or two :))

Eh? Horney maybe. What the f**k hormal?

[KalamityKel]

U picking on me coz I is a girly eh eh? :p

[MadWorld74]

thanks for the tips. I shall be carted off in a van if I start throwing things about. My manager has panic attacks when she needs attention, so most of the grunting an growling has already been done by her! An HRT prescription would be a start. For them! not me.

Slip some Bachs Rescue Remedy into their tea - that should calm them down

[david_carnell]

Or a ecstasy pill. Much happier.

[KalamityKel]

Except on the come down I hear

[Brendan]

That would be a laugh. I wonder how I could introduce some MDMA into the water supply of my office.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Brendan, you must be pregnant, sounds like you're eating for two.

I wish someone would introduce it to my office colleagues water supply and mine come to think of it. It would make for a hell of a lot happier place to work.

At least unpredictable colleagues add some excitement.

All I've done today is spend hours making figures on a spreadsheet into graphs (the kind of thing someone like Mockney could've done in five minutes whilst drinking his morning coffee and reading the Daily Mash) and all I've shown is that, when it comes to treating fractures, more senior doctors are, well, better than junior ones.

Ground breaking.

Doctors should not be made to do audit or statistics of any kind. It's just so wrong.

[Ladygooner]

I made some hash brownies once for work - we were all very relaxed by 9.30am!

Must be. Well either that or it?s a combination of low blood sugar and not enough ecstasy in this dam coffee.

If a man had made the original post it would have been shouted down as sexist and mysoginistic. Funny old world.

Have you had your pituitary gland removed by the way?

[KalamityKel]

Twas nice that the assumption was made that the colleagues were all male when they weren't ;-)

[Asset]

I don't think anyone did KK, Brendan was asking a question inspired by the original post I think.

[Asset]

and yes, men can be hormonal, that's how they grow beards.

[KalamityKel]

Then wot is ur "If a man had made the original post it would have been shouted down as sexist and mysoginistic. Funny old world" all about eh?

[Asset]

because if a man had made a post about a bunch of hormonal busy bodies it would be sexist and mysoginistic - god, shall I repeat myself here? Is it ok that a woman does it?? Jeez.

[KalamityKel]

Does it matter either way? No one has made an issue about it except u (and me now) *sighs* :)-D

[Asset]

Oh for goodness sake - think about it. And here....:)-D have one of those too.

or a tapeworm..?

And Asset, I'm inclined to agree with you. Partly because I'm likely to have been one of the ones who thought it was all misogynistic. Women in the workplace - it's a thorny issue

Or a funny new one perhaps? I think it would have been as you describe, but it is more 'acceptable' than the opposite.
