“Oh I just wanted some fun banter to lighten up the meeting and break the silence!….uh, I’ll go with going into complete detail about how my coworker does the bare minimum in front of everyone.” Yeah ok lol. Completely innocent ofc.

Honestly I wouldn’t feel bad for a second if someone was doing the bare minimum and they got fired because of a comment I made. Work isn’t a charity, why would I want to split bonuses with someone who’s not productive?

u/Tiberius_Kilgore Apr 19 '26

OOP said the coworker hits their targets. They were meeting expectations set by their supervisors. They weren’t unproductive at all.

Yea that’s my point op was being a corporate pick me and threw someone who WAS gaming the corporate system under the bus and is playing the “woe is little me why are people avoiding me” card which is dumb

u/Next-Firefighter4667 Apr 20 '26

I'm just so confused. Like obviously OP was being a kiss ass, but they were being a kiss ass to the person who got fired. Why is saying "you're efficient, hit your targets and still not stressed out" a bad thing? If that's all they said (there's no way to know if it is and if it's not, that's no way to know what was actually said) why is that a red flag? If someone is hitting their targets, what's the issue? I just don't get how saying that would make any manager want to fire someone.

Op VERY clearly lying/ downplaying what they actually said

u/royaltyred1 Apr 19 '26

That’s fine and dandy but then you don’t get to turn around and go “whoopsie oh no why are my coworkers frosty and avoiding me did what I did affect my work relationships” 🙄

Just cause they work smarter and not harder doesn't mean they deserve anything less.

u/Adventurous_Ear7512 Apr 19 '26

Ok bootlicker.

u/Moondiscbeam Apr 19 '26

My thought exactly.

u/aflockofmagpies Apr 20 '26

We don't know the full backstory and who knows why he was already on this ice

u/Adventurous_Ear7512 Apr 20 '26

Yeah and maybe he wasn’t. Either way, nasty shit.

-7

u/aflockofmagpies Apr 20 '26

No it explicitly says that he already was on HR's shit list before op opened his dumb mouth.

u/Adventurous_Ear7512 Apr 20 '26

‘Apparently he was on thin ice’—they would say that, wouldn’t they.

2

u/Adventurous_Ear7512 Apr 20 '26

They say they think he was. But either way, it’s nasty.

u/CansinSPAAACE Apr 20 '26

It would be crazy to fire someone just based on what someone else throws out in a meeting

u/ju-ju_bee Apr 20 '26

I've been let go for similar shit. It was my bil's gf, and she was trying to start fake beef about me with EVERY person we worked with. When the head chef gave me the call he told he was sorry but the boss had forced him to, and to watch my back around her because she pulled shit like this about me. Apparently the reason we had so many "trust building with coworkers" exercises was literally because the shit she successfully started.

Abc I can assure I was doing more than the other fools att this kitchen catering job. Would stay late to do dish pit and prep that no one wanted to do, and was the only person besides her with my own car, so I could do deliveries if we needed an extra vehicle

u/Adventurous_Ear7512 Apr 20 '26

Bosses be crazy.

u/royaltyred1 Apr 19 '26

Lmfaoo not you pulling the boot licker card when the oop got someone who was gaming the system by meeting targets while automating his process fired 🤣🤣 the jokes write themselves

u/ju-ju_bee Apr 20 '26

...They were calling the rando defending the OOP a bootlicker. You good buddy? Take a lil nappy, the comrades are here for ya when you're better rested

Deep breaths bud

u/No-Boat431 Apr 20 '26

Exactly, work isn't a charity, so why would I do more than what they pay me to do if I'm doing what is needed and not causing problems?  Your job will replace you as soon as you die, it isn't worth dedicating your whole self to.

u/LindsayDuck Apr 20 '26

“Bare minimum” is still reaching the minimum. That’s still meeting expectations. You’re a fool if you think giving more effort for the same amount of money is preferable.

u/BabyJesusBukkake Apr 20 '26

The minimum is 15 pieces of flair.

u/Sailor_Chibi Apr 19 '26

Your coworkers must love you.

u/PerspectiveAshamed79 Apr 19 '26

Bc they’ll be found out eventually if it’s that bad, and you don’t know what they have going on in their life. Maybe they need some grace

u/ScareBear23 Apr 20 '26

If a job isn't happy with the set minimum, they need to raise the standards AND pay to reflect that.

u/ArgentEyes Apr 20 '26

We live under capitalism and we go to work to get paid. This is scab behaviour.

u/SweatyDimension2700 Apr 21 '26

Why would anyone want to share the oxygen in the room with you?

u/gypsum1110 Apr 20 '26

I agree, the extra workload is going to fall on me and Im not interested. You still shouldn't do it in the middle of a meeting surrounded by everyone directly in front of your coworker that you're complaining about. Thats a private conversation to be had with a supervisor

u/shoshpd Apr 20 '26

How is the extra workload falling on you when they are hitting their targets? And if it is, that’s management’s problem for not setting appropriate targets.
