Look; I am the primary user of the software program.

You are not.

I already expressed my opinion on the fucking topic.

Don’t come to me and try to convince me that a fucking piece of garbage that cost 30K+ will be the answer to my prayers when I am not praying for it.

I am praying for peace from you dumb shits.

Stop thinking that you are the best. You act like you are so much better than us when you have not even been at your job for anywhere near as long as the rest of us. You are so smug, thinking that you are so much more talented than us. Want to know a secret? You built yourself a reputation a while ago for being a retarded dumbass. You built this reputation for being lazy, incompetent, and essentially not being able to do your job well. Yes, you have gotten better but your continued actions still label you as a dumbass who just does not think! Something that we all agree on! But of course to think you have to be able to shut up for more than a few minutes. And yes, we have noticed that when you work you are slow as hell and when you start talking (Because you can’t shut up) you somehow become even slower.Continue reading→

I work at an opticians and I really enjoy my job, I’m decent at it and get on great with the people there. I’m alone most the time but I talk with the people in the shops nearby. It took me months to get this job after being made redundant at my last one, despite getting interviews daily there were always hundreds of other applicants, and most had multiple stages so I was getting “into the top 10” and “down to the final interview” all the time. They are really scarce and my regional area has one of the highest numbers of unemployed people in the UK. The pay isn’t great (minimum wage) and I have to get up super early to commute, but that’s not my main issue.Continue reading→

Started a new position in a newly formed department. Read: NO STRUCTURE. The trainers have no idea about the industry and don’t know what the hell they’re doing. We waited two weeks before an expert started training us……and his trainings are constantly interrupted. There are hours long blocks in the day with nothing to do because they break the trainings up but have nothing tangible planned in between these breaks. We were paired with “mentors” who are clueless. They are tasked with teaching us what they don’t know while also being expected to output work and meet deadlines for work that was already 30 days beyond the deadline.Continue reading→

I honestly don’t know how you got this job. You are 100% clueless and don’t know what you’re doing at all. You just take credit for other people’s work.
You think everybody around you is dumb but ironically you’re the dumb one.

And stop closing your office door all the time. You stink it up worse than an Apple store and I dread every time you open the door after you’ve locked yourself in there for any period of time.

Open your piggy eyes and flappy ears, fuckwit. There’s a lot going on for the people around you that takes time and energy. The things they are doing are part of work and matter more than your feelings and desires for attention and praise. The things you are doing are good as far as they go, but it would be better if rather than sulking and being obstructive, you pulled your finger out of your ass and helped. This might be painful to hear (I have run out of gentle hints that don’t work anyway) but you are not the centre of everyone’s universe. Your life and feelings are not more important than everyone else’s. Right now, you are not the focus of attention, and that’s how it should be.Continue reading→

Seriously, WTF.

I’ve worked in customer service for a while now and 99% of my customers are great, but there are always those ones that really make you wanna cancel their order and tell them to go fuck themselves. Seriously. One of our items didn’t get tagged by mistake, so I had to input a price manually. Okay, not a big deal. But apparently she either didn’t understand what I was doing or was so damn impatient, she waved her rewards card in front of my face saying “DO YOU WANT MY CARD OR NOT?!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT!” And when I explained to her what was going on she replied: “Oh god, get me outta here!”

Like lady, if you wanna get out so damn quickly,

Then.
Leave.

I am so fucking tired of my lazy ass coworkers always wanting me to cover for them. This is my weekend right before all of us get thrust into an absolute shit-show Friday-Sunday. Seriously, those three days are going to be an absolute nightmare and I really wanted to enjoy my two days off before I get fucked. Instead I get one person trying to get me to come in at the last minute because she couldn’t bother to let anyone know about her problems ahead of time. And now I have another coworker trying to get me to come in tomorrow morning. And guess what? Wednesdays are delivery days for supplies. Which means if I go in, I get to take care of the entire fucking order. Because it’s not enough that I have to put away 90-100% of the deliveries on Mondays and Fridays but now I might have to do it on what was meant to be my day off. The one break I get from putting away the orders and I won’t even get that. Because God forbid I have people actually contribute in helping me. And these deliveries can hold me back from my own projects by hours.Continue reading→

You are a gross sack of shit. You have great visions for yourself. You don’t care about the company, customers or coworkers. You think you are far more important than all of them. If only people could see your greatness! Then you could rule the world! However, no-one can recognise your true worth, so you’ll just have to keep moaning and trashing everyone else to make yourself feel better until such time your little lighted fart can shine. Shithead.

Last year I wrote a workrant related to my boss moving to another institution and being undecided if I should move with him. It was a much better institution than the one I was in and would definitely open doors for me in the future. But he was kind of a shit boss to me, especially when it came to one particular co-worker. She would make unreasonable demands (ie. do her work for her) and then when I’d complain to my boss, he’d always take her side. I thought they were both unreasonable and that they might be related (best case scenario) or dating (worst case) since their mother tongue was the same non-english language. It definitely seemed more like the second based on their actions, but because of the 20 year age gap, and no hard proof, I kept trying to tell myself it wasn’t.Continue reading→
