In an average day

my co-workers scream out "Yeah, Baby!" at least a half dozen times each.
Is this normal office behavior? I'm thinking perhaps I am not up on the etiquette.

Re In an average day

Ah, well, I haven't worked in many offices but I would say, ah, no.

Re In an average day

Tell me they don't do it with that drawn-out, awful Austin Powers accent.

Yep, but they both have accents so it's a bit unique.

You'd hate my office. It gets pretty weird here sometimes.

I don't mind weird. I've been called weird. I like fun. I just don't like loud, obnoxious and stupid.

Re In an average day

Never happened when I worked in an office. However, I encourage my kitchen staff to congratulate each other loudly when they prepare a dish that looks very nice. Pumps them and the guests that hear them.

Re In an average day

my office can be a bit weird(god help us but I fwd an email called "office dares" and several people started doiong that one and the one labled 19 ways to keep a healthy level of insanity someone else sent out)

but if several people started doing that, I think our boss/es would have something to say about it.

wanna trade your crappy co-worker for my crappy co-worker who spends 2/3eds of her day on the phone with her boyfriend, or her husband, or her ex husband aruging and then takes 1 hr long lunch breaks. She's a sweet girl, just NOT VERY BRIGHT
