Before I start, I'm apologizing for spamming your F-list with a binge of overly emotional and tiring posts the past few times. Yes, this is a rant. Yes, I'd very much like to put it under a cut but I have a reason not to. And this time, I'm saying what it is exactly that's annoying me rather than making everyone guess.
Somehow, things just seem much easier to say here rather than face to face.
So, I've been working at VID for almost a year now (might be longer I lost count) and I'm on the verge of snapping.
So bosses like people who suck up and brown nose them and go out regularly for meals with them and whatnot. And in that sense it's just like everyone else. Who doesn't like for someone else to do that to them? Bosses, get it more often than not because they are people in power. And because they're people in power, this particular thingum just happens very often.
But really, not everything is about face and surface. Sometimes you have to consider the facts and sums of things.
Some people are just better in social situations, some people shy away from them. Me? Online interaction's a whole lot easier for me in general. I just suck at physical interaction, no matter how I try.
In all honesty, favoritism isn't my cup of tea, but hell even I'm guilty of it. But when you take that favoritism to a whole new level and make it such that it's "IN YOUR FACE ASSHOLE" obvious, then of course someone's gonna take offense at it.
I'm not pissed over the difference in pay (A dollar just makes that much more difference. Life becomes a whole lot more livable you know?), I'm not pissed at being treated like dirt and shit and being stepped all over on. What pisses me off, is something that pisses me off even if friends do it constantly.
Punctuality.
Do it once in a while (Like once a month or once in two months) and I'll let it slide. But do it all the time and I'll fuck you over good, even if you're a friend. And when you're someone who doesn't give a flying fuck and shoves you one side when you make a fucking attempt to be nice and tolerate everything? Any normal person will be pissed.
You had a problem with me and instead of bringing it up and talking over it with me directly and nicely, you chose to go instead with the option of embarrassing me outright. So fine. I do it now. Except on the net.
Fuck you Job. You come late and you act like it's your fucking right. No apologies, no excuses, no attempt no nothing. And then you become pissed when I write you down as late.
WHAT FOR. YOU DON'T GET YOUR FUCKING PAY DEDUCTED EVEN IF YOU COME A FUCKING HALF HOUR LATE. NOT LIKE THE REST OF US COMMON FOLK.
And again, for reasons I'm not gonna fucking bother with, this post is unlocked. For the world to see.
So I might work only a couple of days a week as compared to someone who works the full week night shift. But being tired is no fucking excuse. You're tired? You need sleep? GO HOME AFTER YOUR FUCKING SHIFT AND SLEEP THEN. You need to wait for your parents to be back before eating dinner? DUDE. YOU'VE ORD-ED FROM THE FUCKING ARMY. And oh did I mention that you have a tendency to stay till late afternoon-evening time gaming before going home? And that he actually lives in the same street/district as I do, and that the bus I take to work actually potentially goes past the area he stays?
No? Well, now you know.
So. Am I being bratty or am I being logically pissed? I'd love to hear your comments on the issue. If I'm wrong, I'll take my words back and fucking apologize. If not...
Well, not like it really bothers. Not even Boss talking to the fucking asshole matters since nothing's changed.
