Or your pants are tightened. j/k
Okay...so, today I went to subway with my coworkers for lunch, and I was driving. They were both ragging on me, and I wasn't in a particularly good mood, so I let it be known. One of them stopped right away, but the other one kept going...let's call him Mr. Loudmouth.
So we get to subway, eat, and then I'm driving back. Mr Loudmouth started yelling while he was complaining about something at work, and I told him to quiet down. Next thing I know he says "I don't want to ride with you again, you're a bitch." I didn't think I heard him right, so I asked him if I had heard him right. He said, "I said you were a bitch."
So I slam on the brakes and tell him to get out about a mile and a half away from work. He gets out, but he's pissed at me now, and as I drive away he throws his water bottle at my car. The asshole had to walk back to work. He's not well liked there because of his big mouth, and everyone, including my supervisor supported me, but now he's pissed at me big time. And he called me the bitch.
No one disrespects me, especially when I'm giving them a ride to lunch. _________________

LOL, that's great.
When he finally made it back to work, did you yell out "Who's a bitch now, asshole??"

Nah...he's got a big male pride issue...I don't know if it's a Latino thing or what...I didn't want to make a huge deal about it, otherwise it's going to get really hard to work most of the day. Most people found out what happened through my other co-worker, who was laughing the whole time in the car. I only told my supervisor because he was going to be late, lol. _________________

Hopefully, that's the end of it... And he's not a nutjob.
He definitely needs anger management. He's usually the problem in the workplace. I like my supervisor's response: "If it didn't happen on company property, I don't give a shit. As long as it doesn't cause a problem at work." Of course, that was after about a minute of laughing.... _________________

I like how your supe thinks. Now he needs to gain a pair and fire the guy. If he's the perpetual problem guy that disrupts the work environment, that's more than enough grounds for termination....or it should be.

No talking crap about work today. I guess that's because I can see the end of the tunnel! haha
New job started... training actually. Won't be out of the old job and officially full time in the new one until the 25th.... maybe sooner, considering the events that took place today, however. Hmmmmmmm _________________

I still can't believe you let him hit your car with a water bottle. If someone did that to mine, I would have gotten out and made him regret it... unless he was a lot bigger than me. Then I'd prolly run away.

Omg, that was so hilarious! I love that you left the guy stranded a mile and a half from work. Hope there won't be any retaliation for that though. _________________

Nope...he ignored me the whole day today. I looked him right in the face and he looked at the ceiling. I asked him if he thought about why I dropped him off and he started through me like I wasn't there. Well, I guess it's an improvement. At least he's not talking my head off now...and I don't really need him for anything at work. _________________
