Maybe I should've done that. =T

I never really like school though. I'd probably would've been late every morning too. :sweat:


Yea, I'm not a morning person, but luckily for me the school I work at is only a seven minute drive from my house.

I love school. Wait, not highschool, I hated highschool. But I love teaching it. Kids are so dumb lol (no offense to all teenagers :bonk:)

Boy, I have one real creative co-worker, or maybe I should say HAD one creative co-worker. We do our time thru our computers here at work and then your manager checks it, approves it, and sends it off to payroll. Turns out one guy somehow managed to "acquire" the pass code of his manager, and was approving overtime that he wasn't working. His desk is empty today. Guess he didn't think he'd get caught (what a moron :shakehead: ) [/list:u]

Talk about nutjob co-workers:

One of our technicians is leaving, so our BOSS told this other engineer that he was responsible for testing and troubleshooting HIS OWN circuit boards... For some bizzare reason, this guy got all pissed off and stomped out of the meeting, got in his car and went home...! :shocked:

Anywhere else on the planet, this moron would've been fired, but THE BOSS just sat there and accepted it like the idiot that she is.

UN-FREAKING-BELIEVABLE.

After getting dragged into the meeting and finding this out, I got pissed off because THE BOSS always gives us these bullshit speeches about teamwork and this moron refuses to be part of it.

Looks like we have two sets of rules around this stinking place: one for the real employees and the other for assholes.

The camel's back is ready to break. :grumble:

I've known some engineers that were great at theory, but couldn't fix anything if you put a gun to their head. Maybe that's what this guy is all about, reality has kicked in and he's afraid he's about to be found out. [/list:u]

yeah, most if not all supervisor/bosses, would have very little tolerance for that kind of behavior...

I doubt it: this sucker's been here for 10+ years.

I think he's got something over on management.... Seriously.

It's pretty close.

the owner of the company was on his way to do an inspection today but his flight was cancelled. phew! :applaud:
11 Aug 2006, 01:25 #2700
But how can y'all work in environments that you believe are akin to hell? I mean, I'd freak out if I had to go into an atmosphere like that. I have four bosses who are all out to get me, but I just never venture anywhere near them, so it's all good. But then, I suppose I'm just a pansy. :sweat:
