Do you work with a bunch of assholes?
 
I do!

I was pulled in today by my supervisor to be told that one of my co-workers thinks I listen in on her phone conversations, and am constantly looking over her shoulder. (I have many, many more important things on my mind other then her phone conversations.) After hearing a few other complaints about me, I told my supervisor that I feel like they (co-workers) are out to get me. You know what my supervisor said to that? That since I am much younger then them, that's why I don't fit in, and, because I have a production background, that's why I'm different from them.

Does anyone else smell age discrimination?
Would YOU go to HR???

Ya know, I've talked to my confidant at work about this whole situation, and he seems to think exactly this.

There's nothing to be jealous about. :distress:

Oh well, f*ck 'em.

Think? Oh sweetie, I know I work with a few... :laugh:

Yeah, I was always the young one in the office and the older women had it in for me. It was horrible sometimes. A job like that may not be worth keeping. Your happiness is the most important!

I work with assholes now. I work at Dominos Pizza as a manager and I just work with a bunch of men who don't know how to handle a woman who actually has feelings, emotions and drive. It's horrible.

UGH.

As they say...

"Great, I am surrounded by a--holes" :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Oh, doll, I've worked with some of the biggest assholes known to mankind. I worked with someone who used to be a drug addict (four years clean) and she ripped me to shreds when she found an aspirin on the floor. She thought it was some kind of drug and accused me of doing them at work. :laugh: Eventually, we had to be "mediated" by management, where I told her that if she hadn't drugged herself into a hazy stupor for years, she wouldn't be so anal over a lone aspirin on the floor of the workplace. :laugh: Then I left to work somewhere else.

However, I must admit to being the coldest asshole you'll ever meet if things aren't going right at my job. ;) :laugh:

estranged4life 06-03-2004 10:22 PM

Nope...

I had a co-worker ask "You don't like people much do ya?"

My reply (Sarcastically, of course)-"I'm a "racist", I HATE everyone"...Let's say the conversation ended very quickly :laugh:

You should've asked if they wanted to join the Klan. :lol:

I like people, but only people who can pull their weight. If they're dragging me down, I'll tell 'em to f*ck off. :laugh:

estranged4life 06-03-2004 10:41 PM

I'm cursed actually...
 
I'm tall/lanky like my late father & I have my Mother's (Sarcastic as humanly possible, Or allowable) sense of humor...Example: My Mom has an ol' ever tried & ever popular question of asking firemen if she "Can check their hoses?" (I can dive in the floorboard of a car very fast from the embarrassment I had to endure from her humor during my younger years)

wondergirl9847 06-03-2004 10:55 PM

Lol
 
Ya'll are crazy. :laugh:

I've worked with a-holes before and unless *I* am one, I don't work with any now, as I work at home. Heh. My "boss" is a nice lady, of course, I don't have to see or talk to her...we email. LOL

My last boss was a be-otch from you-know-where. Ugh!! HUGE whippin' to work for her. I prefer male bosses, as they tend to be more laid back, of course, there are ALWAYS exceptions to the rule, huh?

sara1998 06-04-2004 04:07 AM

Oh damn, it's Friday. I can't wait for Monday so I can listen in on her phone conversations all week next week. :rolleyes:

TGIF........
