Rave: Butthole Co-workers Taking Sick Days

[JL21]

There's a dude in my office who's a [expletive] horrible prick. He casts a dark cloud everywhere he goes and he poisons everything that we try to do.

He's out sick today. It's like the whole office has a vacation from his horse [expletive] attitude, his incompetence, and his total lack of tact.

It's amazing how much better it feels to be at work today without him around.

[thrill]

When those people are out sick or on vacation, my goal is always to do everything I can to make things go well without them so it becomes evident we don't need that person.

[JL21]

That is more or less my full-time job. Two people (I'm one of them) have been promoted to compensate for this guy's total inability to do his job.

You'd think eventually someone above him would put it together and run him off.

[heyzeus]

At my old firm, that person was my boss. Realizing that was realizing it was time to move on.

I hate that guy. Every workplace has one and that guy needs to realize that if he has a problem with everyone and everything on the planet, maybe it's him that is the problem and not everyone and everything.
