No, unfortunately I am a one-trick pony but fortunately that one trick is always enough to see me victorious.

Hopefully Moonster brings his reinforced titanium table tennis bat to withstand the heat from my balls. Fnarr, etc. Here is the etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 One of my colleagues is toiling and creating tension in my department through him not "getting" how we need to do our job. I've always tried to help out and pitch in with him but it's getting a bit much. Should I just cut him loose and leave him to his fate, or continue carrying him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a similar guy in here that I've been trying to expose how fucking little he does without going full Lee Wallace (with no real success) and I find that these types of people, who keep coming back to you with the same questions over and over, are just playing dumb to avoid responsibility. Helping them enables them to be work shy b*****ds and it will be you and your colleagues who end up with the finger pointed at you if anything goes tits up as he can just say "Chris helped me with that". If he asks me to do anything now I just tell him I'm too busy, he'll either sit on it until it becomes extremely urgent or someone else will help him, either way I can do my job without being held back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milton75 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 We've had our fair share of useless/lazy morons in my work. In fairness to them, it was a failure of their management tree at the time that they were employed, but maybe they just talked a good interview. Whatever the case, it would have been better to get shot sooner. We lost a couple of big offshore contracts solely down to the asset holders getting frustrated at the antics of these morons, and if someone had acted decisively it probably could have been sorted. Playing devil's advocate, I guess their managers didn't want to sack them, but in effect they sheltered some people earning ~40k a year and managed to lose the company contracts worth ~3m a year. Maybe an extreme example, but it's since made me realise taht you shouldn't piss about with this sort of thing - even more so if they could take others down with them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Nothing bammy, just scary. Young labourer at work, not long turned 18. A few weeks ago I had to teach him (!!) how to make a pot noodle. Yesterday he told me he doesn't like fig rolls because he "doesn't like the chocolate in the middle." That's just off the top of my head, there is literally one a day where the world just stops and you stand and think WTF, is he having me on? It's a brilliant laugh. More a mascot than a colleague. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
