About five years ago I was reprimanded for telling a newbie that one of the oldbies is a reiterator.
I specifically said she is a hard worker and takes her job seriously but don’t get trapped talking to her because she can take a one minute conversation and turn it into 20 minutes and you lose company time.
Yeah. I got into trouble for saying that.
I have a new reiterator at work.
I can’t stand reiterators!!

It’s not that they are bad people… They just keep reiterating what they’ve already said.

Usually it’s someone who is very nice and a hard worker. Someone who cares about the company and company work. But they just keep saying the same things over and over again until it drives me crazy.

The latest reiterator is really a nice guy. And he does a good job. But he won’t shut up. I just want him to shut up.

Didn’t you just say that on Monday for 20 minutes when your thoughts are barely a minute long??

Just so my intention with this thread is clear~
I can’t stand reiterators. I don’t like dealing with the same comments over and over again.

Understand though.... They are great employees. They just keep saying words over and over again.
I don’t like being trapped into their monologues.

They can turn Mary had a little lamb into...
I met Mary in 1984 at a Journey concert. She wanted to be a farmer and specifically raise sheep. She met Gary in 1986 and they fell in love. They pooled their assets and worked hard until they had enough money to buy a farm. At first they got a sheepdog named Gus. Gus was a good sheepdog but they had no sheep. Two years later, they bought a lamb and it was pure white. Gary died after being hit by lightning the very day Mary got the lamb.

And all the time that the reiterator is speaking my head wants to explode.
I do not care for reiterators.

I mean, I guess mostly I would like people to be succinct with their thoughts and comments.
Don’t ramble on about things that have nothing to do with anything.
My time is valuable. Tell me what you need to say in a paragraph or less.
Don’t be all blah blah blah blah because it really annoys me.

What's 20 minutes? 😆 I have a male neighbor that can drone on for hours...nonstop...me me me...feel sorry for his wife...she loves to see him on the road doing his job...(no wonder) 😆 his stories are always the same just over and over. Never figured out how he is able to talk nonstop for a minimum of 2 hours and sometimes up to 4 hours.

Dawn I hope you never have to care for someone with dementia. This is true...they can't help themselves.😪 A whole different ..thing entirely. My neighbor is more of a big blowhard trying to get a captive audience to listen to him. Needs his ego boosted...and tells tall tales about himself and what all he has done and can do...pitiful really...😒

Dawn I hope you never have to care for someone with dementia. ....who is hooked on phone numbers! It's a tough gig when you have to smile and pretend it's the first time you had to answer that same issue that continually arises.

Apart from the obvious gag, Dawn, do you actually have someone else in mind? I'm not talking about the two old crones on the DH.

No one in mind. I’m here to entertain. I blame the crackers.

This thread was meant to be silly. It was inspired by someone at work from years ago that I had thought about.
It wasn’t about anyone on boards.
I’ve been very nice to certain people who I don’t particularly like (I like everyone here)....
So to reiterate Keep me out of your dispute.
(Isn’t that the same thing she said to Figlet?)
