#Shitty coworker

[tricky-bastard-pokemon]

my friend has been working with this guy for like a year and legit like everyone can’t stand him. not only was he just incompetent, he somehow managed to be an asshole to everyone. he’d been on his last strike for a while, and finally was an hour late to work and got several customer complaints in one day, so he got fired. they got a cake to celebrate

i cannot stress this enough: if your reasoning for clowning on the mcu is "they overwork their cg artists and animators" i 1000% guarantee that a show or movie you have been stanning for years also abused their artists and you just haven't heard about it because the production companies aren't in the spotlight like mcu productions are. that cartoon for kids? that incredibly animated movie? that non-marvel superhero movie? i've seen people declare their hatred for the way the mcu treats their workers and then turn around and gush about a show that i know for a fact was hell for the artists attached

and no this is NOT me saying "this means you should stop hating on the mcu uwu" it's me saying you gotta be aware that this shit is an INDUSTRY WIDE PROBLEM. you CANNOT "fix" it by refusing to watch mcu movies and feeling good about it. you have to be aware that it's EVERYWHERE. why do you think so many animation and vfx productions are sourced in canada? in india and the phillipines? we are not unionized.

i know it's hard to face the idea that your favourite show might have been made unethically especially when you've spent so much time hating the mcu for doing the same thing. you don't have to start hating your favourite show. just like...be aware. don't be smarmy about it. don't claim without research that a beautifully animated movie Must mean the animators were not working 16 hour days and weekends. i do think we can fix this 👍 but we can't fix it if 90% of us don't even realize what the problem really is

#uhhhh me #with the recession coming up a lot of my coworkers have come out of the woodworks to talk abt their experiences #and i feel like i've been wearing rose tinted glasses abt my company (bc i work here and i like my supervisors!) #i knew ofc that aniamtion studios here aren't always on the up and up but i did Not know how bad it got #and it just! sucks! that whenever ppl online talk abt shitty treatment of artists they're only talking in regards to the mcu

I just gotta say I hate my coworker. It's not that I just don't like her. I actively dislike her. So, so much.

My homophobic coworker came in today on his day off and attempted to speak to me. He expected I’d speak back.

I did not.

First, I slowly rubbed both my cheeks with both my middle fingers, while staring off into space. He walked away.

Ten minutes later, he came back in all sunshine and light trying to sound like we’re cool and buddies, asking how the store was yesterday. I peeled tape off the counter. He called my name. I ignored it, oops I dropped my speck of tape.

He called my name 3 more times, increasing in volume each time, til I just said, “Nope.”

He was like, “Why???”

I rubbed my face with my middle fingers again, and then started talking to my other coworker like Shitty Coworker wasn’t even there.

He left.

I realised as soon as I saw him that I am still REALLY angry with him, and also afraid of him. He’s angry and unpredictable with his reactions, and my other coworkers are all just of the mind that, “That’s just how he is.” That’s not okay, and I don’t yet know what to say to him that’ll get him to stop being a douchey homophobic asshole. But I think I’ve figured out why he’s so volatile towards me specifically.

He’s been with the company for 2 years longer than me, but I get more hours than he does. I’m actually working though, and he’s really bad at this job. He only got it because he pestered HQ to get a job here. He bothered people into giving him the job, for literally MONTHS, and they hired him bc they were short once upon a time and Head Office was like, “Hire him to shut him up and make him leave us alone,” and now they can’t get rid of him.

 He treats the place like it’s his own private yard sale, and when people ask for help and he doesn’t feel like helping (which is most of the time) he tells them, “IDK I just work here.” He’s toxic as fuck, and it causes me anxiety just knowing he’s still around, let ALONE that he could just walk in on any of my shifts and pester me, or worse, threaten me. (He lives across the street.)

I have no idea what he would do. I threaten HIS idea of having a cushy job he can Not Work At and still get paid to be a warm body that can push buttons on the cash register screen.

I’ve started a new log to record our interactions, and also what others tell me about his actions, so at least someone is recording his shitty behaviours.

found family coworkers (definition multiple) of all time [image description under cut]

Comic 1:

First panel, Ingo and Akari are standing together. Someone off-screen asks “oh, is that your dad?”. Akari has an awkward smile and replies “oh, no no. he’s my...” There’s a long pause as she looks at Ingo. He’s leaving it up to her. She finishes, “He’s my coworker... friend... guy.” In smaller font, she continues “yea. that.” Comic 2: A dramatic panel of Volo, looking pissed off, shouting “who are you to interfere?!!” Ingo tugs the brim of his cap lower. The upper half of his face is in shadow, while his eyes stand out. He looks threatening but has his expression is his characteristic neutral-frown, and he says “...I’m her coworker friend guy.”. In the final panel, Machoke is throwing an incredible amount of punches, a reference to Star Platinum from Jojo. Ingo is pointing with one hand, his battle pose. The background text reads, “What does that even mean??” Volo is experiencing off-screen violence.

Comic 3: The comic is titled “Reunion”. In the first panel, Ingo shows off Akari, with a faint smile on his face. She is labelled “best girl (assigned by god)”. He says, “Emmet, this is Akari, my coworker. She’s the reason I was able to return to this station.” In smaller font, Akari comments to herself, “ooh... so this is the man in white.”

In the second panel, in smaller font Ingo notes “I think I remember now...” He says, “Akari, this is Emmet. He's also my coworker.” Coworker is underlined. Emmet is crying in the background, looking confused, conflicted, distressed, and happy. He says, “Brother...?” In the final panel, we see a framed photograph of all three together. Underneath are the words, Employee of the Month. Akari is dressed as a depot agent, and she and Ingo pose with peace signs. Emmet is red faced from crying, but he’s smiling widely. He looks happy.

…

There are no more heroes.

Well, okay. Rewind a bit.

Danny has been doing the hero thing for a while now. He’s had a big reveal; everyone has accepted him (including his parents), the GIW disbanded, the Anti-Ecto acts repealed, and generally, everything is going great. Some of the A-Listers are even training as junior ghost hunters to help give him a break from his rogues! (Being Ghost King makes things hectic sometimes, and he just needs the extra help. Sue him!)

The point is, literally nothing is wrong with Danny Phantom’s afterlife.

And then Valerie Gray, the Red Huntress, disappears in front of his eyes.

Danny is baffled! She’s just…gone! Valerie just popped out of existence, like she was never there. But no matter how hard he searches in the Ghost Zone, he can’t find her soul anywhere. His core isn't broken in grief. So she’s not dead. Which is good. So then, where is she?

Some of the others come forward with ideas on how to find her. A few ghosts volunteer to go out into the mortal realm, an area Danny had declared off-limits, to see if she was out there. Danny approves it. He rounds up some of the friendlier (i.e., discreet) ghosts and Amity Parkers and demolishes the outside travel ban.

So everyone spreads out, looking for their dear frenemy and teammate. But it becomes apparent very quickly that something is wrong with the rest of the world.

There are no more heroes.

Every single living superhero on the face of the Earth has just…vanished. Villains are running amok; the countries are in chaos! Some aliens are invading Earth, mythical deities are trying to take over, and society is crumbling to the ground. Everything is on the brink of collapse.

Well, Danny was still there. And so were his people. They were pretty spread out, so could they just…take up the mantles? He also knew where to find the souls of dead heroes in the Zone; surely they wouldn't mind coming out of retirement for a little bit, especially if they couldn't die again. Oh! And that skeleton army leftover from Pariah Dark's reign might be useful in repelling those invading forces.

Honestly, there were more than enough hands to go around! And with the heroes gone, Danny didn't mind letting everyone out for a little break, as long as they followed his rules. They wouldn't stop the search for the other heroes, but hopefully, when they found them, the heroes wouldn't mind Danny's intervention too much. :)

In other words:

Someone fucks up, and all of Earth's living heroes are either wished out of existence or are whisked away to some far-off realm where Danny hasn't checked yet. In the attempt to figure out what's going on, Danny lets the dead run amok over the Earth as they search for clues. The skeleton army repels the invading armies, the souls of dead heroes deal with the world leaders, and his rogues and other Amity Parkers set up shop in place of famous heroes, trying to get the cities under control again.

Basically, they just do their best to keep everything from imploding until the Justice League and others are back.

(And why is it that Danny hasn't disappeared? Well, whatever caused everyone to go poof! only affected living heroes. Anyone heroes that were dead in the first place, or even just half-dead, stayed behind.)

That poll about what counts as "on time" doesn't work because "on time to meet a friend for coffee" is different if you're meeting for coffee on their 30 minute lunch break than it is if you're meeting for coffee and have hours available, and "on time to work" means different things if you have a job where you being 30 minutes late means someone else has to stay late on their shift/spend that 30 minutes doing both your job AND theirs, vs if you have a job where your work is your own and you can stay late if you need. And "on time" to a job interview does mean 5 minutes early, sorry, I don't make the rules, and "on time" to your flight is at least 45 minutes before takeoff so you don't slow everyone down trying to board at the last minute

#everyone who is smugly like #'it's oppressive to expect people to be on time to work' #no it isn't actually #it's oppressive to fire them for circumstances outside their control #but making your coworkers pick up your slack is a shitty thing to do actually

Why did it take me until todays episode to realize how hysterical this entire show is from Kyutaro’s point of view

#when your coworkers (who might have kinda a gay thing going on but youve never really been sure) #show up one day and you just IMMEDIATELY clock ‘Oh. Oh they have a kid.’ #They did not a child the last time you spoke with them #youre not sure theyre even a couple #none of you discuss or talk about this in any capacity #also youre all assassins #buddy daddies #rei suwa #suwa rei #kurusu kazuki #kazuki kurusu #kugi kyutaro #kyutaro kugi #anime #shitty edits

I was really in the mood to do some masquerade fanart, but I didn’t feel like coming up with anything original, so here’s some of my favorite (...slightly paraphrased) bits from the first part. I don’t know where it’s going, but it’s pretty fun so far!

also one that isn’t canon except in my heart:

(disclaimer that this is a Joke)

(he is a horrible little rat man, but to be fair, so is everyone else)

(if you don’t like horrible little rat men why are you even playing this game)

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #glorious masquerade #hey rolly is your big secret plan to give malleus the best day ever because so far it's working #he got INVITED to go on a TRIP and his favorite humans are there and there's GARGOYLES #not to mention his special little fancy boy outfit with a special little fancy boy hat that has room for his horns! #round it out with an ice cream social to put a nice button on it #the only downside is that the building is too nice. mal likes his buildings REAL shitty. #he WILL say this to your face. #(this is why he never gets invited anywhere.) #anyway cannot overstate how delightful it is to see jade be like 'i would also like to destroy something' #go for it! indulge that id! #azul doesn't care as long as you keep it to things he's not personally responsible for! #not included but also appreciated: trein spending twenty minutes discussing the care arrangements he made for his cat #then having a tearful goodbye with said cat #(the care arrangements boil down to 'i asked my coworker to feed him') #(crewel is a friend to all animals apparently and that's the most surprising twist so far)

Nancy drew cw you will always be famous to me. Really asked ‘what if everyone’s favorite plucky and precocious teen mystery-solver grew up to find out her quaint hometown was actually, like, super fucking haunted?’ and didn’t wait for an answer.

#nancy drew cw #nancy drew #and what if all her mystery-solving sidekicks from the books #were like #her coworkers from her shitty job at a failing seafood restaurant?

Angry but coping.

Last night at work, I learned that a coworker has not at all changed from the beginning of my time working there and has been A Shit behind my back. Again.

One of my other coworkers came to me today to let me know that not only has this other dude been purposely misgendering me (with everyone he ever talks to reminding him of my Actual pronouns which he ignores), but also has said some “vile, disgusting shit” about me. I asked not to be told what it was. But now I’m really Angry.

I came home after work just wanting to punch something. Him,  a wall, something needed hitting. (Thanks, Testosterone! This is a Fun New Thing!) I do own a heavy training bag, but haven’t been able to hang it somewhere usable, and tonight I made A Decision on where I’m going to put it. Also I have not yet punched things; I channelled that energy into moving stuff in my apartment. Lol.

Once I made that decision, I took down the stuff on that one wall to make room... and ended up relocating, cleaning, and repositioning Hecate’s shrine, restoring an actual working altar, and putting things to rights that I hadn’t realised til now weren’t working for me. I guess making space for myself to actually use in a way that I need is starting to happen.

I’m slowly getting my apartment into a place where I like being in it. The things I can see that I like using, and the things that I don’t need/want are balancing the way they should be. I’ve been drawing again, and magic and study and writing can’t be far off as I get more comfortable here.

Also the coworker who told me about the Shitty One did tell the boss; I told him ‘From now on, don’t tell me anything other than, “Homophobic Tantrum Coworker hates you again inexplicably.” I’ll know to keep an eye after that. Just tell him that shit’s not acceptable, cut him off from elaborating further, and report to the manager. I don’t need to know details at all about him being terrible.’ Not knowing WHY is frustrating as Hell though, and I want to know when this weirdo goes off the fucking rails because I made too much eye contact or not enough, or he decided that I hate him because I was thinking about Cheerios for dinner when he walked by and I sounded distant. I hope I won’t have to punch him.

#work #coworkers #all but two are wonderful #and one is retiring soon so he DGAF #and neither do I #but that other one #is like an old cranky toddler that makes no sense #and he shouldn't still be working there #he needs a code name #sc works I guess #shitty coworker

[honeypleasejustkillme]
