i hate my co-workers so much...

[McKBrew]

Moral of the rant, I hate the losers who can't do their job but if they get enough snorkeling time in front of the boss, the actual work that matters gets overlooked.

I think the military actually fosters that type of person. I've seen so many axx-kissers in my career that don't know jack about their job, but like you said, take on so many extra responsibilities that they rate a better evaluation than Jesus.

I do hate those type of people.

I work in city government. Planning and Permits.

For the most part it's an easy job but it is the co-worker that make it hard.

We have those who are laid back and could care less as long as the task at hand is getting done at a reasonable pace.

We have management Nazi's, knobs, and a few that really don't have a clue.

We have the hard workers that are convinced they are the only ones doing it right but have no real authority other than seniority.

And we have the slackers. Those who think thta since they are in a government position they can coast (and for the most part do) by doing as little as possible and taking off every chance they get.

It's true that it dsoes take a pretty big screw up to get fired from a government job.

And then you have the customers. Some real ******** who are convinced that we are their slaves cause they paid taxes last year that supposedly cover our checks. Man the number of times I have heard "I pay your check" that I have deparately fought to not reply "Well, I don't see your signature on it"

For now you are two stripes ahead. Once they climb into bed with more upper echelon they will pass you. Have seen it way too many times.

Pugilist-

Not in the AF- Its every man for himself now. I doubt they make it to their 10 year mark.

I work in an emergency room and my coworkers are actually great. I work the night shift and we will back each other up. To work where I work you have to be part of the team and if your not you will soon learn you are not welcome there.

They all love the fact that im brewing beer now and have so many questions on how its done so when we get a slow night we sit around talking about beer.

both my supervisor's and a manager are women i think i know exactly what he means

Bah, I work with the biggest selections of a$$clowns this side of the Mississippi. I work at a hell desk, where nobody in our Tier1 group has any technical skill. They were all hired for their customer service ability (ie: NONE) and can't answer basic questions about software they've worked with for 2 years now. The boss fosters this all, in spite of the fact we've never had a problem with customer service skill from the real techies that worked here, now all the people with any skill are leaving for $10-15k more a year at the building next door and this company is going down faster than that NY Governor's hooker.

I've got one dude who hasn't done a stich of work in 3 years, and he wonders why everyone hates him. I've got a stereotypical type who uses her 'female, minority' status to ensure that no matter how much she screws up, she'll never be fired. I've got a masseuse and a beaty pageant contestant who just started - neither of them know how to turn on their own computer in the morning, yet work in a hell desk answering technical application support questions from users.

Our management is right near the biggest tard of all. You go to him with a question, a concern, or even a bright idea (or a quippy little comeback to one of his retarded ass questions), and all you get out of him is a stupid grin. He just sits there with a stupid half cocked smile and won't say anything. Then everyone just gets real nervous and starts talking about the weather just to stop him from staring at you with that goofy damn grin.

Boss: "Hey Jez, what are you doing this morning?"
Me: "Looking for a new job, how bout a recommendation?"
Boss: stupid grin
<2 minutes later>
Me: "So, I'm working on project x"
Boss: "OK" <walks away>

i recommend just reminding yourself everyday that none of the corporate BS actually means anything. companies like yours will always surprise you just when you think they can't make an even dumber move they go right ahead and prove you wrong. it sounds terrible but complete apathy is how i made it through my day today. Ride it till the wheels fall of or go next door.

I work in IT.. right now my job sucks.

This is how it has gone - step by step.
1. They hire a lead
2. They hire me.
3. They hire my co-worker.

We build a call center 150 or so seats. W
We are busy as hell etc etc etc.
(fast forward)

Week of Thanks giving they lay off my coworker and we get even more busy.
A few weeks ago they piss off my lead.
HE QUITS..
Now it's me and the 300 + dip****s and they will probably not be in a hurry to hire anyone. BTW - did I mention that I am looking to get the hell out?

Completely agree. I am in the navy as well and i see this on a daily basis.

What kills me about the military is you can be the dumbest, laziest, piece of crap in the world and not know jack **** about your job, but as long as you do not get in trouble, you can pretty much stay in as long as you like. Well, thats changed a bit, but if you take the test enough times, you are pretty much guaranteed to make it sooner or later so you can stay in and retire. Actually, the above might only apply to the navy. If you were a ******* lazy POS in the army or marines, you might get weeded out because you got killed.

Been catching up on HBT threads... Most the people I work with take the bus to work.
