When I go into work third shift, and I'm finishing up all the work 1st shift couldn't do... WTF. There is 25% less staff during the night, yet my coworker and I get twice as much accomplished? WTF is wrong with that picture?! I think some fucking people from the day crew need to get their asses shown to the door. It's not like they contribute to anything...

That's okay. Operation "fuck 'em" is has been enacted. We're doing what we are supposed to, and just letting the work pile up on day crew now. FUCK THEM ALL, except the manager because she's nice and I pity she has to work with the day people.

i know it's easier for you to keep your conference call on speaker - but i really do not want to have to sit here and listen to the goddamn hold music while i'm trying to get shit done.

AND i REALLY love listening to you say that you did something for a client when i'm sitting right here and i just got done doing it myself.

I hate when VPs make stupid sexist remarks that they don't realize are sexist. Example: In today's meeting, my client, a VP, switched chairs so he could sit next to me because "I'm better to look at."

WTF?

I love it when I'm the only one working on a task that is supposed to be a team effort. But if it doesn't get done (if I don't do it) someone gets their panties in a wad. There's a reason you make more money than I do, bitch.

People who don't use the scoop for getting ice out of the ice machine and instead opt to use their not-washed-since-monday cup... gross.

That could be related to how much supervision there is on dayshift and the ability to get the job done quickly with supervision around.

Executive assistants (eye candy bitches) that have worked at the company for years, and still don't know how to get to a popular restaurant that is less than a mile from our building.

Hypocritical managers that show up late routinely and then critique you for being late occasionally on a yearly review. Called him out instantly, he did not like the reality I brought.

Managers that don't live in reality.

Since when has it been ok to avoid your JOB in favor of the bullshit you volunteered to do? Not just today. But every fucking day. I seriously don't get paid enough to pick up your slack. Bitch

I figured company hierarchy transcended the ability to critique a higher-up's work schedule

I think if brought up any one's 25 work work week here, I'd get laughed out of the building

Agreed.

Managers set the policy. If he wants to work 10-4, that's his perogative. You come in when he tells you to.

I would never recommend my approach to anyone else, as it would most often result in being reprimanded at best, or terminated at worst. For most employees, challenging management is very dangerous and is generally speaking, a death wish. However, I have brought in a lot of revenue for the company, and I'm not even within the Sales/Marketing department, so I have upper-management's ear, plus I'm the IT guy for the Raleigh office.

Not reading through this whole thread so this may have been mentioned:

I HATE people who act like they own the equipment of the company. Example:

This guy I work with will make statements like "Yeah I got my #1 Machine down because my motor on my pump went bad" Fuck that you do not own any of that equipment.

It is more like the #1 Machine is down because a motor on the pump went bad. I do not know why but that shit pisses me off (I'm not the only one in the management team that feels this way too).
