This topic is probably so silly, but I really need to vent...
Got a gal here in the office that hates life, hates everyone, including her husband, yet plays nice in the sandbox when it's convenient to her...the things she gets away with are unreal. I'm talking about tons of time out of the office and she somehow earns OT, never uses annual or sick leave...basically lies on her timesheet, BIG lies, every single month...she curses like a sailor to everyone, fights with her husband on the phone for hours on end like a kid in high school...she once told our boss that he was a (I'll be delicate here) "fuggin' [deragatory word for the female anatomy beginning with a "p"]" and walked away...we all witnessed it, but he did nothing...she never shows up on time, and always leaves early; takes hours in the middle of the day to go have her hair done or spend time with her sister...
She's making everyone here completely miserable, and the fact that our boss won't rectify the situation just makes everything even worse...
Good news is that I got word through the grapevine yesterday that, and I quote, "she seems to have a particular problem with Michelle more than anyone else"...ordinarily, this might make someone mad, but not me...it's funny as hell because I know all of my snide comments in her presence are being understood...I don't put up with her sh*t, so she avoids me most of the time.
Hard part is watching so many of my good friends fall to mental breakdowns...it's a sad thing to watch someone's mind go...and many of my co-workers are looking for work elsewhere. I hate to see them go because we've got such a good team here...
Anywhooo...what's the worst thing you've witnessed while on the job...something that just made your jaw drop...? I need someone to show me that my little gov't job isn't the worst...there's always something worse out there...
