I'm a mean, evil person
It seems some of my co-workers (AKA 'the children") have a problem with listening to directions long enough to actually remember what I said. Getting asked the same stuff eleventeen times becomes rather monotonous, dont you think?
After beating my head against the wall (rather than using theirs, which would have been much more satisfying), I finally figured out how to make them listen.
It seems some people have no sense of humor when you draw pictues of what they are supposed to do on a cardboard box with various colors of crayon (that I got from my darling neice) and hand it to them.
Granted, I thought it was funny as hell, and that's what mattered.

1) I know a few of those people. My favorite story still is one of a co-worker in MN who used her fullname for her password. Roughly once a month she would come and ask me what her password was--she would forget it. Finally I snapped and snapped at her "IT IS YOUR NAME--HOW CAN YOU FORGET YOUR NAME??" She got really huffy and told me I didn't have to bite her head off for asking me a simple question. I took a deep breath and asked her if it didn't seem ridiculous that someone would forget their own name as their password. She had to admit I had a point but still argued that I shouldn't "yell" at people. I wouldn't doubt that she forgot it again the next month but I think she did finally realize it wasn't a good idea to ask me again.
