Rant about your coworkers

So we got a new hire and I really don't think he is going to work out. He is so damn lazy. He's rather large and it may have to do with his size. But I know he isn't going to make it.

Our store manager has been out for 2 weeks, so since I'm the assistant manager I have been running the store.

I asked him to dust the dinettes and the coffee and end tables. Let me tell you what he done. He sat down to dust the dinettes. Then when he went to do the coffee and end table he sat on a coffee table that has a padded leather top and wheels. He then proceeded to scoot across the show room floor and dust. It was like watching a over grown toddler in a walker. I actually thought he was going to break it because this guy is big. When I mean big I mean 6x big.

He has to make frequent stops to catch his breath when carrying furniture, and can barley fit in the cab of the truck. We get 30 min lunches and he took a 45 min lunch and then brought his food back to the store and ate for another 15 mins. I'm constantly catching him sitting down and getting on the computer at work on yahoo.com. That's the only site we can get on, everything else blocked expect for company emails and things like that.

I give him 2 weeks when our store manager gets back because she is a no bullshit type of manager.

So what kind of things piss you off about your coworkers?

Dro i sure your getting to get alot of posts on this but what bugs me is for , "most" of them to seem to have master the art of pawning things off when they are not even busy....I dont at all mind lending a hand but if i have my own work to do don't come up to me until you see my desk is clear...Or i offer...Always trying to get out of their work shit really pisses me off "KNOW WONDER I TOKE UP!" :rastasmoke: DRO you have yourself a great weekend!!! hopefull things will get better with the snail..lol:thumbsup:

Thanks fallenangel. I hate it too when someone pawns stuff on me. And the know it alls who know absolutely nothing. It kills me.

But when i say something i am the most horrible person in the world. Here is the kicker though, when i swamped and asked them for help, the scatter like cock roaches..them assholes...Its funny to see them scatter though

While working at a restaurant, my emotions ran short because only a tenth of all the employees did NOT smoke cigarettes. I understand that some people need a stress reliever, but walking outside to have a cigarette seven times each shift put some weight on my shoulders when I'm serving customers. :mad:

I did not trust my assistant manager, he did not have a pleasant way about him. I was friendly as often with everyone when I began working there, however, he had a strong ebonic dialect that I had extreme difficulty understanding. Our communication struggled. I suspected him of food poisoning me the very day he became manager, although I had never mentioned such allegations, it is what he would have wanted. Besides, I was walking out after about 4 months. :)

I've had a lot of hands on work experience, (outdoor maintenance, landscaping, manual labor, carpentry, etc.) I know I am a great worker, but I've had little business job experience simply because I do not like dealing with people. I DID work with people because I believed I needed that experience. I wanted to know and act on the challenges that come with the personal demands of others. I see myself happier not being pressured by those around me. I'm nicer than you can imagine, but I don't know the tolerance of my stress and I'm too afraid to test it.

This new lady started at work, who I had to "train" for the first shift of her working so she knew what the job was about.
Cutting a long story short, we got on REALLY well for a week or two and I thought she seriously liked me by the way she acted with me. I have loads of friends who are girls so I know she wasn't just trying to me my "mate".
I had a few days off, come back into work to find out it was one of the Door canvassers she was after, and didn't like me at all.
ugh err lol.

that's just a fraction of the things I could share, it's like a soap drama in the place I work.

This is a wicked thread idea. Here I go. :D

Where to start, yes, first, this girl named "M" at work is a total bitch. She isn't a bitch on purpose though, it's just her. She does merchandising there, basically nakes the showroom look good and makes price tags. She needs help sometimes moving around couches and stuff, no problem, but she doesn't ask you for help, she tells you. "Go do this and move that over there, then I NEED you to go over there and take that table to the back." No please, no thank you, and NO asking. She isn't our boss she is a co-worker, so talk to us and ASK us for help. I have my own job to do and she is not a first priority.

I had a swamper (delivery guy) quit on me as well. In the middle of the day this guy dissapears, so I had to send one of my warehouse workers on the truck. That left a new employee of mine, on his own, so I was training him and doing my own thing. Then the swamper actually has the nerve to show up the next morning for work! I phoned up my boss, told him the story, he came down, told him to go home, you're FIRED! Now one of the warehouse guys is the new swamper, so now I will be training 2 new people next week, while doing my own job. Sounds like fun. :rolleyes:

The oay really isn't that great either, but the job really isn't that stressful. I'm a warehouse supervisor and basically keep track of product coming in and out of the warehouse. It isn't rocket science, but it's work.

I thought I had more to say, I guess not. Trivial little things, but equally annoying. :)

I just started talking to this girl, and I really like her. Some how everyone at work found out and they're always talking shit. I don't understand why they have ME on their minds. I don't know 90% of their names, and yet they're talking shit and stuff to this girl. I fucking have no clue who they are?

Why do people have to start drama at work about a person who doesn't even interact with them? I do my work, leave, and don't want to take my work with me. These people make it impossible to do that.

i hate my 2 faced boss:mad:

I hate pretty much everyone from my work. There has to be almost 100 fellow employees, and it reminds me exactly of high school. All anyone does is gossip and spread malicious nonsense about each other all day. Cheers!
