I have avoided posting on this thread, but can't stand it anymore.
Dude in my office is a trainwreck of a coworker.
We are attorneys. Ergo, our job includes some petty annoyances which you really just need to get over. These can include demolition of your social plans on a semi-regular basis, lack of regard for your social life by coworkers or superiors, long hours, lack of predictability of schedule.
In other words, you need to be flexible and willing to work to make things work.
All I hear is constant bitching about "I was planning on doing this, and this motherfucker gave me an assignment to do that! Fuck him!" or "Damnit, I had to work this weekend." or "Man, I work too hard."
And its always someone else's fault that these things have happened to him. Its never his fault at all.
All this in an office of 10 total people. Dude. People will hear you, whether they want to or not.
SHUT UP!!!!
Now, if this was his only annoying habit, it would be easier to deal with. Some people deal with things by complaining about them. But it isn't. The other stuff:
- He's an only child, and acts like it around the office by assuming that you want to hear every minute detail about whatever he has done or will be doing. In the course of discussing things at the office, I have heard about the following: his girlfriend's repeated urinary tract infections, his dog's incontinence, his mom's overuse of medical marijuana, and several other strains of conversation which are not worth going into.
- Along those same lines, he always assumes that we're going to eat lunch together. Bro, its not elementary school. Sometimes, I just want to eat in silence and stare at the wall. And not have to hear about any of the above-mentioned items.
- He constantly...CONSTANTLY...fiddles with his crotch. Dude.
- His bad breath is overwhelming. Like, by the end of the day, the hallway outside of his office smells like his halitosis.
- In general, he has this overblown sense of entitlement which I just don't get. He is rude to people, short-tempered, and treats subordinates like shit, which they hold against him. All of this seems to stem from the fact that he's an attorney.
Oh, and he overquotes movies incorrectly. All the time.
