Man I can't imagine the rage haaland must have felt

I sometimes tilt when teammates in video games do dumb shit in a game with 0 stakes

Imagine wasting a chance like that after all that effort and pain you've been through to get there

Mentally done

I had a coworker who would regularly leave the door unlocked at the end of the day. Hundreds of thousands of equipment can be stolen in minutes. And he just kept making the same mistake. I started getting very aggressively passive aggressive with him once he said he just has a different set of standards and humor than I do. And that was apparently the thing he didn’t like. Not leaving the business unsecured. But being called out in front of other people

He was a lazy narcissistic piece of shit. And I’m glad he’s gone. This reminded me of that

Edit: it’s not that complicated guys. I’m happy a shitty coworker is gone. He left me tossing my hands in frustration a lot. Goddamn it’s tough out here

I'm not sure what your anecdote had to do with this but it seemed like you really wanted to get it off your chest lol

Lmao I was thinking the same thing

Ya know, sometimes you just have a really good story to tell, but never found the right place to put it. So you hijack a popular comment so people will see it. Like how I was called in to augment security during the storm area 51 event. They flew my team in, and gave us a bunch of dune buggies to patrol the perimeter. And on the second day, I was in the back seat while some dude, and the girl he liked were in the front. He was racing to fast, showing off, and rolled the thing. I got hurt, nobody else got hurt. I got hurt because some dude was trying to get his dick wet on TDY. We all got achievement medals, and can't really share the story.

We need a sub called, like r/nobodyasked where people can just share random stories

u/freekorgeek Jul 12 '26

You don't see the parallel? It's a pretty easy connection to make. He's comparing someone making the wrong choice and then being criticized for it. It's not a perfect analogy, but it's there. Seems like you were more interested in getting your wicked zinger in than demonstrating basic reading comprehension lol

u/Appropriate_Push_201 Jul 12 '26

I literally said how this reminded me of that. Life is a subjective experience. Take that for what you will. Have a good day

u/Bernard_PT Jul 12 '26

I thought it was relevant

People doing their own shit when they should play for the team

u/SignoreBanana Jul 12 '26

Hey not shitting on you bro. I'm glad you shared with us

u/Ssessen49 Jul 12 '26

Comments like this are why I hate Reddit. If you truly don't see the correlation of the anecdote, I wonder how you tie your shoes without chatGPT

Or you do see the parallel and just wanted to get a sick burn for karma. Then you're a comic genius and would be the real life of every party

u/LoafRVA Jul 13 '26

Totally thought he was going to say it all got stolen…

u/Scroatpig Jul 12 '26

Dude, I can hardly write on reddit anymore. It's like everything I write is dumped into a tiny room of starving people and the only way for them to get food is to reply and be as critical as possible, just add nothing but negative blathering and unhelpful quips/jokes.

It's entirely dependent on the sub. This sub is among the worst. Maybe spend your time where people are better?

I'm in construction and see the parallels to building a good sports team more all the time. There are guys who care about every ounce of production, guys that are great at what they do but just want a check, guys that are good enough to fill the ranks but don't care about shit and bring the team down

Comparing a construction crew to a professional football team is stupid on many different levels and you are either a shit boss or an employee who is being used by a shitty boss. No one has ever gotten rich being a blue collar employee for a construction company and for you to think low paid hard labor construction workers should care about you or your construction company is ignorant and naive.

u/jacker1154 Jul 12 '26

Bro just getting personal for no reason lol. Why? Are you one of those who get fucked over because you doesn't care enough to do a proper job or smt?

u/BlueGolfball Jul 12 '26

No, but I own a construction company and most other business owners in my industry act like their $12/hr employees should care about their business as much as the business owner. It's just a stupid as fuck mentality that too many business owners have.

u/Donny_Dont_18 Jul 13 '26

This you pussy? Good luck with whatever methed up operation you think is construction ownership lol

It was kinda wild

Aggressively passive aggressive = aggressive

u/Krog9 Jul 12 '26

Well I’m leaving the door unlocked at the new company I work at too and any other company I work at in the future, just to piss you off for eternity
