M.O.

There's a guy I work with whose desk is located near mine that annoys me. It seems like almost daily he's placing a personal call on company time to complain about something he's bought. Currently it's a problem with the carpet he had installed. Another time it was some Bose speakers he wanted to return after having used them. Another time it was some eye surgery he had done.

This makes me think... can't he do this on his day off? I don't see him here every day, so I know he has days off.

It also makes me think, "You get what you pay for." In the case of the laser eye surgery, it is rumored that instead of investigating various surgeons for things like experience and reputation, he literally shopped around for the lowest price. I suspect something similar happened with the carpet, or at least the installation.

When I told Maryanne about this guy's modus operandi, she simply said, "Dumbass."
