Tell your Tales of Nightmare Co-Workers

Go.

I worked with a bunch of jackasses. When I worked in a bakery with around 80 other people, I had to run the bagel line after the supervisor quit. The owner refused to promote me but expected me to get everything done the supervisor did on top of my own work. The people that got sent to work on my team were the people that no one else wanted, the slackers, the lazy ones, the *******s. So I would be trying to do my job and people would just walk off. They'd leave for the day and not tell anyone. I'd start the day with ten people and by the end I'd have five. So I'd tell the owner that and he said he'd talk to them. He didn't. I talk to them myself they tell me to go **** myself since I'm not the supervisor, I tell them off and they go complain to the owner. The owner ******es me out for it and tells me I'm responsible for the line and them working. Eventually I tell everyone who I don't like (aka everyone who just leaves) to **** off. They complain and I quit a few weeks later, leaving him with NO ONE who can run the line that wasn't already busy 10 hours a day working elsewhere in the plant.

I really liked this girl and she fooled around with the assistant manager who was an ass hat.

Haha, that's awesome! Good on you for not putting up with it anymore.

I work in a unionized environment, so I have to work with some of the laziest people known to man. But no one takes the cake more than the former crack head/current coke head woman who routinely goes off on "sick" leave for months or years at a time because she goes to rehab (her Facebook suggests otherwise).

The union stipulates that someone who goes off on sick leave must have a job to return to at the classification they were at before they left. So this woman (who last was gone for 2 years) had a job created for her in our area because her old job had gone to someone else. She currently files and goes for 20 minute smoke breaks every hour and spends the majority of her day making personal phone calls and marinating in her perfume. And the worst part is, we will never get rid of her. She has freely admitted to anyone that will listen that she and her boyfriend do cocaine (in front of her two children I may add).

How much does this woman make?

About $45,000 a year.

And because she's protected by the union, anyone who complains about her lack of work usually ends up apologizing to her because she goes to our union rep and tells them she's being bullied.

I haven't had any horrific co-workers, except one that was messed up in the head after a bad trip he had doing acid when he was younger. He didn't want to do work and would frequently miss work days for long periods of time. I had to cover for him.

I worked an office job with this lazy bum who spent all day on social media sites trawling for barley legal girls which was creepy as hell. He kept trying to get me into Grime music. He would spend all his wages on not good looking designer clothes and then ask you to loan him money the next day.

And you never did give me anything, you son of a ... I mean, wow, whoever this guy is, what a loser, right? Right?

 

[Kirmit]

I have countless nightmare co-workers, I even argued with a couple of them today. They're just incredibly lazy and for lack of a better word, dumb. We have one guy who does the bare minimum, gets away with it because he does the boss favours outside of work, a guy who also does the bare minimum, disappears to the toilet half hour at a time a few times a day, is crap at everything he does yet gets given the easy jobs all the time for some unknown reason. There's also a group of part time workers who work half the amount of hours that the rest of us do and do nothing while they're there, I shouted at one of them today as she was literally standing doing nothing whilst everybody else worked their socks off. I just don't understand the people I work with, our company lets us go early, so when the work's done, we can go home and still get paid the full amount yet these people stand about doing nothing, work the bare minimum when they do actually work and expect everyone else to get the work done. Needless to say my co-workers irk me, a lot .

@KevanG: Your boss was a bigger jerk than your co-workers. Hope the new boss is a good one.

@Feenix: Join the union, that should piss that co-worker off, and stay very chill, subtly teasing her, until she confesses, resigns, or -hopefully, as far fetched as it sounds- start working seriously.

@chamber-music: Report that guy, anonymously.

@Kirmit: Do favors for the bosses of your boss, befriend them, let them see you deserve to be one of them, so you can piss the lazy bum, and possibly make him work harder.

I smashed my manager during the night shift one time. Eh, it was cool for about two months before she got boring and wanted to really go out on a date. It was pointless to finally put in work on a personal level ...when we started with desert.

One time for two months? Me doth thinks you are making storytellings Mr. Jackson.

Only once at work.

She was later fired for taking **** home.

Nice try Mr. "it was cool for about two months before she got boring and wanted to really go out on a date"

Your story has more holes in it than your pretend work girlfriend.

 

[RichardRider]

I work with a guy who changed his name to something out of World of Warcraft. Changed his belief and is married to his wife, has a boyfriend and a girlfriend. He doesn't wash after the bathroom and touches himself under the table. The worst part is that his ex had his baby and he told her he didn't want any part as he is just sowing his oats.

Oh, ok.

 

[Howlett]

Oh, ok.

Was she also from Canada, and we wouldn't know her?

I'm in Cali, man.

 

[Howlett]

I'm in Cali, man.

Exactly.

 

[Black Narcissus]

Exactly.

You're being weird, man. Now I remember why I rarely break character with personal stuff on here.

I got fired from Applebee's for putting a server in a choke hold; as one cook beautifully put it, I "put the Undertaker on him." It's a bit of a long story, but to put it short, he said in front of everyone in the kitchen that he was gonna kick my ass, so I felt that I had to defend my honor and so I threatened him. He called my bluff and I made a quick decision (which I now know was rash and wrong). He called the cops, but nothing ever happened. Last I heard, that guy's dying of cancer.

EDIT: I don't break character until the DVD commentary.

Right, it's my fault and not your stories you make up and live in.

Oh, ok.

Meryl Streep joined us too and there was some kfc all over. No gravy though.


There.

Sounds about as legit as your other story. Except for the no gravy part. Meryl LOVES the gravy.
