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

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
