In the 11 year I have worked for my company there always seems to be "one" that just doesnt get it. I am in the process of trying to get rid of that "one" right now. But she will only be replaced by another. It's a lose lose situation I'm afraid! On the upside, it does give us ammo to write about!crazy ramblings of a tired momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733248516613616012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869505302730434075.post-73091683628291730902010-10-28T12:59:47.666-05:002010-10-28T12:59:47.666-05:00Everytime I wrap up reading one of your posts JPT,...Everytime I wrap up reading one of your posts JPT, I am alternately cringing because of your experiences with wackos, and wanting to read more.

Then from 10pm until 11pm they could eat all the carbs you wanted. They couldn't figure out why they couldn't lose weight (ALL 4 of them!) Ummm...if you consume 8000 calories worth of carbs in one hours...pretty sure those veggies you had for lunch don't matter.Miss Melicioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317295852882179317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869505302730434075.post-59261703073995935532010-10-28T09:04:43.334-05:002010-10-28T09:04:43.334-05:00Human capital, eh?

Luckily for my inner peace we all have to wear uniforms at work. I've seen a few of my CW's outside the fences and it's not pretty at all.... Take a notebook to work and write down plenty of quotes.

Get them out of the building within the hour. There is no reason to give them access to anything after they resign. <br /><br />Human capital? So they are letting you know you as an employee are a means to production, which you are, but that's stupid. I guess you can toss that "we're all family here," attitude which is so popular with huge corporations and small mom and pop businesses. This family stuff is BS.<br /><br />The third employee role will soon be filled by another insane person. If they are not when they arrive, they will soon realize the role requires it and become crazy.Charlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17167633465853736197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869505302730434075.post-57694990433297986132010-10-28T05:28:54.296-05:002010-10-28T05:28:54.296-05:00I can hardly wait for the next worthless co-worker...I can hardly wait for the next worthless co-worker to arrive.
