Hmmm....
Do you change the pattern of the stack around?
Do you place one or two cans around here and there in places other than your desk?
Do you tap on them with a pencil? A pen?
Do you offer to get her a Coke when you go to get one?
Do you blow over the top of a can, making a wind tunnel sound?
I think you could be a bit more annoying if you tried....
Heehee

Siren I completely respect your right to have a different opinion. Never ever questioned it.
So, by that, I would expect the same respect for my opinion that you are flat out wrong. You don't have to agree or disagree with me. That is of little or no consequence. But don't feel hard done by if someone disagrees with you for the simple fact that they do disagree with you. Uhhhh thats unclear.
OK. I respect your right to your opinion. Respect my right to rebuttal. Succinct enough.
I wasn't looking for a rubber stamp. I fully accepted the possibility, even the probability that I was being a dick or being childish. However classing it as harassment or abuse overstates it in the extreme. As far as "look at me aren't I cool".... there are some things that I do and have done that, by most peoples definition of the word, would truly be considered cool. Stacking cola cans on my desk is not one of them. It is, in fact, juvenile, sophmoric and not particularly attractive or pleasing to the eye. It is at the same time, by any sane definition, neither harassment nor abusive.
Would you consider it harassment or abuse if I put up an ugly piece of art in my office? One that I knew she detested? And please remember this is my office BTW.
Now, you would have an argument if I were stacking them on her desk or spelling out vulgar words with them where she was forced to view them.
So Siren (and I don't enjoy arguing with you BTW ) I would have been more than willing to accept your judgment that I was a dick or childish or something similar. I can certainly display many of those charachteristics. I will however, challenge your contention that it is harassment or abuse. That, I feel, is ridiculous. At the same time I will respect even defend your right to say it.
You were only half right on the passive/aggressive question......grrrrrrr

Am I normal, a dick or merely childish or has this thread become really annoying?
Not to bring up an old point, Ex, but since you've indicated that this kind of behavior is unusual for you and you don't exhibit this pattern of behavior with others, why do you think you go out of your way to annoy this lady?
I mean, there has to be a reason buried in there somewhere, you think?

Childish ... oui oui
I remember back in 5th grade ... my boyfriend used to chase me home from school every day. Any other time, he was sweet and shy, but boy, as soon as that school bell rang, he was on my ass. Luckily, I could run fast and the only time he ever caught me was if he was on his bike. And I hated it, because, on the rare occasion that he did catch me, he didn't try to kiss me, he tried to get my clothes dirty by tossing me into a mud puddle. Moral of the story .... guys do annoying childish things when they like you. I'm thinking you kind of dig your secretary.
xxxooo
