Some People
You know there is always that one person you work with that you can’t stand. The one that drives you crazy and makes you want to stab your eyeballs out with a sharpened pencil. We’ve all had to work with this person. Sometimes their male. Sometimes their female. But either one is always the same.
I work with such a person. This person will remain nameless and genderless to protect the guilty….I mean innocent (right?). This person started out nice. They were friendly, treated me nice, showed
me the ropes, warned me what not to do/say, etc. I work with this person everyday. Hell I sit in a cube across from them. They even had a half wall installed between our cubicles so we could communicate easier. Things were fine for a while. Then this person turned on me. Hardcore style.
This person has a stressful life (so they say) at home and apparently I’m their punching bag now. They have kids, husband, drama, etc. at home just like most of us do. They just choose to bring it all to work it seems.
It seems like the you know what started to hit the fan around the end of August. That is when we let our manager go that had only been here 3 months. I mentioned after we found this out that I figured something was up because I’d seen this manager in the HR department and then saw his boss in there the following day. This somehow turned into “Harold said he was told by a little birdie that such and such was getting canned” or some BS like that. Of course those words never came out of my mouth. I mean come on. Do I seem like the person that would say “a little birdie told me” HAHA! Riiiiiiiiiiiight. So my coworker decides they must tell our boss (the one we had before the former manager was brought on) this.
Ever since this happened it just seems like the storm has been raging with my coworker. Seems like everything sets her off. Can’t go into specifics but it’s about to hit a breaking point.
Anyways just needed to vent and get this off my chest. Talk to you all later. Peace.
