I Hate Passive aggressive/PC Office Politics

You know those little emails you get from someone..."Is this problem still happening?" You can hear the emphasis on the word still as clear as if it were yelled from a tower using a bullhorn...but it's typed very nicely, very correctly. "Are you going to take care of that?" or "Do you need me to help you?". These would be fine if these type of people weren't raging fucktards who think they're smarter than you because they've got four to six months more seniority.

Now, you may be thinking, what if they are innocent comments? Ohhhhhh nooooo. They most definitely aren't. When they do come to you and talk AT you, you can hear the fake just dripping off their words. It's disgusting. I propose that we just say what we mean. No lift in our pitch to feign concern, no lightening our volume to seem non-threatening, no jargon, no buzzwords, and no BS. Just ask me, "Hey, you gonna do this or do I have to?", "Did you fix this yet?" or maybe "Do you even know how to do it?", even a "Hey, 'tard....Is that gonna take all week?". At least I could respect your honesty.

I also hate that everything some people do every single day of their pathetic little existence is to try to make themselves look good at the expense of others. STOP THAT. It's sad, and desperate. Let your work show off your ability. Stop relying on setting others up for failure so you can come in and shine. It's usually on the back of someone else's work because you were too busy screwing around scheming to actually get the work done. If you would have worked that hard on doing well at your job, you wouldn't need to use these tactics.

When someone figures you out, you look not only unethical and immoral, but you're exposed as a completely worthless waste of space. Good luck regaining any respect. Idiot.

Don't tell me you forgot about meetings.

Meetings suck because they can tell more they can talk at large groups.

You know, I did totally forget that cluster. Maybe I was repressing the memory.
