If you can't beat them, irritate them!

My philosophy as of late is; since there's no way to advance and they won't give me more money for dealing with a rude, inconsiderate lazy co-worker/lead, then it's my personal mission to make him crazy.

Case in point; I have a dry erase board on the wall next to me, which I use for memos to myself about to do, days left til vacation, pick winning lotto numbers, and the Quote of the Day. I get a lot of suggestions from my co-workers for quotes, especially as they know I can't stand this "Lead" (neither can they!)Every time he snaps at me, has a tantrum (he's 53!!) or is generally rude, I pick an especially appropriate saying to post. I was thrilled to discover the funny e-mail page here, as it gives me more material! Everytime he whines to the GM, he gets told to lighten up, and that we "need more levity back there". Neener!!!!

I know he'll miss me when I quit....

Case in point; he snapped at me and another coworker just recently and got written up for it! He's getting quite the paper trail. Pretty soon, I'll have the department to myself!

Update; Looks like he might be job hunting! Joygasm! I wanted a bigger cube anyway.....

No luck; actually he's been really quiet and being moderately decent, but for some reason, it's always a "calm before the storm" with him. It's kinda sad really, that he's that insecure, 'cause sometimes he can be really nice and joking. He's just been such a weenie for so long, I could never trust him not to send me up river. I mean, anyone else could've gone to the labor board with a "hostle work environment" claim & won, w/the amount of stuff he's said/yelled and done. I just figure there's already enough conflict here to get them involved right now. Got bored w/irritating him,i guess, now it's just survival of the fittest.
