Blame him when your kids start believing in any god.
better yet, blame him when anyone else at work becomes lame as hell.

Can't be satanic. It clearly says "Hellbound" which to me implies that you haven't arrived in Hell. Since Satan is already in Hell, you have had no contact with him.I worked with a guy in SD & WY that tried at two different companies to get me fired for my throat tattoo. he said that the eyeballs in the skulls depicted the living dead which in turn was satanic and he was offended by it. HR at both places told him there was nothing they could or would do about it. he was one of those that used HR as a revenge tool. this is the "satanic" tattoo.
Day four of Covert tissue ops.
For four days I have left a tissue on the desk, for four days he has picked them up and thrown them away. He seems pretty pissed off lately, I'd like to think that my mind**** has played at least some small role in this.
I will soldier on.
I feel I need to update this after the events that unfolded beautifully over the past few days.
Quick recap, I've been leaving one clean tissue on this guy's desk for 2 months now. Every day they get thrown away and every day
Don't leave us hanging like that...
My mistake sir, I hit enter half way through, it's there now.

Wow, that's good work
That's good clandestine operating there. Members of the cell have a limited knowledge of each other, this way when one is compromised he can't destroy the whole Op. I think that sometimes we're heading towards being a nation of p*ssies. Oh, Psy hurt my feelings someone else help me! I'm not saying resort to physical confrontation, but just say something...
Hopefully I won't get fired soon. I have been depressed about the current situation here going into 2016. I don't agree with the direction we are headed (it's wrong for my customers) and it is killing me slowly.
Hoping that things turn around for you. Work should not always be fun, but it should be challenging, rewarding, interesting, exciting, and the benefits should outweigh the anxiety.
Luckily he still has no idea who was behind the tissues.
But yes, go talk to the dude. The most I would have said was 'that was funny, nice work.'
Get all butthurt over it and you're just begging for more.
For some reason today I remembered one guy from several years ago. I'm not exaggerating when I say the he ended every single sentence with this nervous, maniacal giggle...
even if it was just "good morning... hahahaHAHAha".
When he left, the office manager told me to take his laptop and do a restore to wipe it.
I opened the laptop and he had written in black sharpie "Double click to open" with an arrow pointing to the left mouse button, and "Click to copy or paste" with an arrow to the right mouse button.
He was a Civil Engineer. a college graduate.
Maybe Asperger's syndrome?
At 36, I am part of the first generation to have had computers in school my entire academic career. Granted, the first ones were green-screen monsters with cassette tape drives, but I do remember working on them some in 1st or 2nd grade.For some reason today I remembered one guy from several years ago.

Sounds familiar. I've indirectly had a part in the firing of at least two coworkers; same type of situation. Before the first one was hired, I was one of the lead GIS technicians in our company, mostly self-taught. I'd had two introductory-level classes, and everything else came from 8 years of using the software. First guy is hired on, resume says he has a masters degree in GIS. His first day, he's asking me questions that are literally Week 1 GIS 101 material. At the end of his second week, my boss asked how things were going... the prolonged facepalm set the stage, and the kid didn't make it two months. (and come to find out, it wasn't a masters degree, it was a masters certificate. And he hadn't actually EARNED it yet, he had part of a class left...)I just found out that a guy I work with got canned last Friday. He was marginally competent but in his dept that was scoring pretty high.
I rode him pretty hard on several occasions because I had to depend on him getting info to me and he consistently failed.
I knew he had adopted eight kids, found out today that the oldest got arrested for something, his wife bailed on him and the kids and is demanding a divorce, and now he's unemployed.
And I feel like an ass for needlessly adding to his grief.

A master's certificate? Oh good lord, is this some new crap concocted by these for-profit diploma mills that seem to pop up everywhere like mushrooms? :smack:
A guy at work swears he has an engineering degree of some variety that's never been offered at the school he claims to have gotten it. I went to that school. They have two engineering programs, neither are the one he said he got. They have an engineering technology program, but he says that wasn't it. Not like a school to just abandon an engineering program is it? This is also the same guy that swears he bought a tv at Lowes, and his old school watchman got better reception when we went to 3G.
Our 60 year old graphic designer (yeah... wtf is right) talks to herself all day and randomly lets out a maniacal cackle. Place is creepy man.
If your coworker burst out in tears because of post-it notes and a clean tissue, he's probably got stuff going on elsewhere in his life.
Two points. One, there are some funny vids out there where someone tries to steal a car and doesn't drive a manual transmission. Two. "Educators" like this one... http://www.wlwt.com/news/child-pret...d-bow-and-arrow-suspended-for-3-days/36221592You think we're headed toward that? I'm pretty sure we've hit 3rd or 4th gear on that on. Sadly, none of the newly formed p*ssies will understand a manual transmission comment either. Sad days ahead indeed. Sad sad.
the coworkers that will try to make others look bad to make themselves look good. she's also the HR nightmare maker i have previously posted about.
Sadly, no. It's offered at some 4-year schools highly respected in the engineering world.A master's certificate? Oh good lord, is this some new crap concocted by these for-profit diploma mills that seem to pop up everywhere like mushrooms? :smack:

From what I can tell, it's the 2-yr degree of the post-graduate world, offered by schools that have enough of a program to do *something*, but not enough of a program to offer the full-blown masters degree.

Okay, now back to our regularly scheduled thread...
I have a coworker that can't have a brief discussion about anything. Yesterday for example, we had a tech at an airport who wanted to check his part of a newly installed "shout line." We still weren't sure where in my facility it was going to go. Why check it three times? Instead of those three sentences, I got a 15 minute explanation...
She's 60 years old, and English is the only language she speaks....
Actual conversation I just had with a coworker:
Her - "*blah blah blah*... and then I went to get in my car this morning, and there was a mice in the garage!"
Me - "Um, 'A mice'? Don't you mean 'a mouse'?"
Her - "No, it wasn't a mouse, it was a mice."
Me - "Huh?"
Her - "You know, kinda like a mouse, but larger. A mice."
Me - "'Mice' is just the plural form of 'mouse'..."
Her - "Oh, then what am I thinking of?"
Me - "A rat?"
Her - "Yeah! A rat!"
