I don't get why some people feel they have to add commentary on every little thing that happens. No matter how many times they are told basically if it doesn't involve them in any way to stay the hell out of it.

perhaps I am the odd one, I have always maintained the idea that if anything I was thinking of saying didn't add anything of merit to what was happening it was best to keep my mouth shut, less i look like a dumb ass. I still really don't get it. My boss hired a new employee. They were told what their job was, what area they were to be working in. trained on how to be effective in their job. Now though, they want to talk about everyone else's Job and poke around in a department that they have no business poking around in.

There have been several gentle reminders to the new employee, but they just don't seem to get it. So they continue to talk about figures that they have no involvement in.

Sure I may be an ass, in saying that the whole thing is beyond annoying. Yet it still is. Maybe they are just being over-eager because they are looking for a promotion....

On the flip side I could understand if they were offering a dissenting opinion, or exposing an angle of thought that hadn't been previously been thought of. But mostly this employees words are just regurgitate of what has been said numerous times and only acts to confuse the matter then to make anything clearer.

I just want to tell this employee to mind their own damn business and be done with them. I can't however, we're short staffed at work as it is.

Beh....
