Someone give me a drink - I just told my co-worker to "kiss my ass"
I think I said it about 20 times ... I warned him yesterday to leave me alone. I am the kind of worker who when it comes to work, I work best alone. I don't like working with people who lollygag and play around because to me its not productive. He is someone who is always on thin ice sneaking behind the rules , always doing everything that he is not supposed to be doing. When I get into my work, I have my ipod on and I am focused. We had a lot of work that we had to get done tonight but we were working in cramp quarters outside of our normal working area so we had to make due with what was available. I did'nt go the same route as everyone else, but I got the most work done (the system at the end of the night shows how much we do) but I am competitive only with myself not anyone else.

Because the people who lollygag and play around played follow the leader instead working for one's self , they did'nt get much done. I worked through my break because I wanted to get as much done as possible. Tuesday night I did'nt even take a break because I knew that if I did'nt work through break I would'nt get anything done. Asshole of the day comes over to the table where I am sitting and says to the lady at the table with me "CP did'nt help us play catch up while the system was down, she went back to her area and did her work." I did'nt help them because they should have did their work instead of acting like ASSES as always. I said " Excuse me , if you have a problem with the way I do my work , talk to me directly, don't talk to me to someone else." Asshole goes " I talk about you in front of everybody else instead of talking about you behind your back." - Fuck that, it still does'nt make it right. He said that they had to do some of my work , fucking lie, I did all of my work. I told him " What about the shit that we had to fix of yours last night while you and the rest of the lollygag gang snuck and took an extra 15 minute break. We did'nt throw that in your face, so don't talk shit to me (this is where I snapped) if you have something to say about my work performance, you talk to me and the manager, nobody else. You are not anybody, shut the fuck up and kiss my black ass.!!!!" I did'nt care who heard me because I had enough of this mofo. I told him earlier that night to leave me alone ... I warned him. I am not the kind of person who really plays around when it comes to work. And of course what does he say when I curse him out " I was only playing." Yeah they always say they are only playing when they get cursed out. If you were only playing, then why did you say " I talk about you in front of everybody else instead of talking about you behind your back." - He is just mad that I did my work, I am better and it shows. All of them can kiss my ass.

And about joking - you can't joke with everybody. My ex-boyfriend happens to work at the same place as I do and this asshole is always joking about it , just because its public to them does'nt make it public. Its my private business, I don't joke about anybody else's boyfriends, girlfriends or etc so don't joke about mine. So fucking stupid. Our manager was'nt there tonight so I can only imagine the shit that I am going to have to sit throught tonight - they can all kiss my ass. Fuck them .

End of rant.

2. At this point I really don't care because this job is not my career.
That guy is just weird ... he just came back to work after being off from work for 3 months. He does'nt really know me that well so I guess he thought that he could talk to shit to me like he does everyone else. I had to put him in his place and I really don't care if I get written up - I do my job and I do it well. I am not there to make friends.

3. Good for you putting him in his place

In so many places I've worked, people will just put-up with unpleasant or toxic people rather than risk a confrontation. Even if it's just a job, you deserve to be able to work without that crap.

:yourock:

5. "I do my job and I do it well. I am not there to make friends. "
Thats my attitude at work.
I can't stand when fellow emplyees try to use work as a substitute for a social life.The last people I want to be friends with are morans that I would not associate with if not forced to by work.

Sometimes a loud Kiss My Ass is just what the doctor ordered!

6. I was always accused of being the bad guy....
....and not being a team player when I refused to finish other people's work or fix their mistakes for them so they could go home at the regualr time and I'd have to work late for them instead. Nobody, including the bosses or supervisors could understand (or they pretended they didn't) why I wasn't so accommodating.

8. Good for you
Just so you know, I make it a practice of telling assholes to shut the fuck up. I don't care anymore. they have no right interfering with my shit, or yours.

Next step is file a harassment against this jerk off.

Just playin. Oh sorry, my fist was just playing too.:woohoo:

11. What really pisses me off is that I was not the only one who did'nt come over there to help ...
He knew that the other person would tell him off but he probably thought that I would let him walk all over me . Hell no , I cursed his ass out and if I have to do it again , I will. I come there to work , not to be anyone's friend. I don't play follow the damn leader, I get to work and I get it done. Stupid some of bitches. There is a lot I could say about all of them when they joke on me but like me , they are there to work, not to be anyone's friend. I could say how I think they are crappy workers , don't know shit and only got the job by default because their department closed down - but when push comes to shove , I laugh at them because sometimes stupid people can't help it. They got away with bullshitting for so long that me and the other person who came to the department with me works harder and better than they do - we make them look bad so fuck them. Bring it on bitches. I just want to be left the fuck alone.

9. Good for you!!
Life is too short to put up with bullshit from stupid people. That "I was only playing" crap really pisses me off because it's how they try to save face by turning you into the one who can't take a joke. Well, Eff that and Eff them!! You're not being paid enough to be his babysitter or object of abuse.


:hug:
