Secret work enemies

[JimmyJeffers]

Hahahaa we have someone who puts 'BW' (best wishes)

You can’t really mean that you really wish the best for someone if you can’t spare a second to type out the whole thing.

Well lucky for me I wish the best for literally no one at work, so I can afford to do it.

I don't, because I'm a decent human being, but I could.

I may have resorted to similar in the past.
This was my particular favourite though.
When I worked for the NHS I had a raging hatred of one particularly arrogant 'manager' who was boastful of some 'research' that he had done on a certain subject.
A couple of months after his 'research' I noted that there was to be a Seminar about a very similar subject being arranged at a Hotel in London.
I set up an email address in the name of one of the organisers and contacted him to say that I was aware of his work and would be grateful of his attendance.
After corrosponding via several emails and building a rapport with the snivelling pratt, I invited him to do a short presentation on his research findings. I promised him that travel and other out of pocket expences would be paid.
He duly turned up at this event only to be greeted by people who had never heard of him and had no idea what the 'F' he was doing there.

Makes note to always like and agree with Kev’s posts

Recently had a new guy started at my work. Seems innocuous enough but has started casually dropping in little brags about other business interests etc. pretty certain he’s a compulsive liar (which would be ace) Also has this habit of talking through what he’s doing when he’s working on his computer like he’s talking to himself but everyone in the office needs to know.

Decided he shall be my work enemy as this has been a vacant position for some time now. No one at work knows this yet and I’m very polite with him but I come home with great gusto to tell the Mrs all the annoying things he’s done throughout the day. Is great. I hate him.

Everyone must have or had work enemies. Past or present examples please.

Hows about some not so secret enemies? Any blow ups in the working world?

One of my previous jobs company had various departments. On our floor was two departments. The other one were very precious about their office space, if you went in there they'd ask if you were lost etc. It never got old!

Each department got a local paper delivered everyday. Boss of that other one would come through, take our paper, go and use the facilities then return the paper to our office.

The guy was an utter mutant and judging by the particles he gifted us on the paper probably had some real issues with his guts.

Not really RP. I’m fairly easy going and usually bottle any real world confrontation.

He's a liar and a lazy blagger trying to justify his salary. He'll be gone in a few months.

When I was an Apprentice one of the engineers grassed me and another apprentice for sitting around and being lazy.

He became our enemy. He was allergic to Oranges so used to leave orange peel all around his desk , and parts of the shop floor he worked on. Soak his plastic chair in orange juice.

We also urinated into his kettle, which he did drink. Worse thing was he made a cup for one of the wiremen we liked. How he never noticed the smell I don't know.

You dirty horrible get.

He told me he’s fluent in Portuguese and I’m almost certain he isn’t. Looking forward to seeing this all play out

Lass I work with writes Regards, at the end of her emails, which is fine, I do that too.

Problem is her automated signature also says it.

Regards,

Drives me mad lol

Have 2 people shadowing me this afternoon. I said what do they need to know? And was told just to see your daily workflow. Said they’d need to sign up for an account and make 5 posts before they can access the current affairs section.

I find it rude if people CBA writing Best or Kind before they write Regards. I'd rather they just sign it off with their name and nothing else

 

[Billy Dean]

Although to be fair I often just write Best which is probably worse

Definitely worse. Doesn't even make sense lol

Learn a random Portuguese sentence, something not too heavy like "would you like red or white wine?" then just look at him and wait. Do it now and post the outcome on here, don't be a wimp.
