Anyway, signals are out tat I shld start looking for way out of the current situation...a new job!
So, anyone got good recommendation???
I know jolly well tat one shldnt leave his/her job just coz of some idiot colleagues...but once the atmosphere at work changed to an unbearable degree...well, wat else can I say but "sianzzzzz"...
Plus I think its abt time I move on to some other place where I can learn more...getting to a saturation point here.
Lend me ur ears (ok lah, eyes for this case since this is a blog) while I complain abt this one particular ASSHOLE who (I believe strongly) created the whole unfriendly, uncooperative, unmotivational atmosphere at my workplace. For those who follow my blog and read my past entry on the "Public Enemy"...well, this is the same person but upgraded to ASSHOLE status. I am not even going to put disclaimer this time coz I bloody hell feel strongly on this topic and there is absolutely no need to be apologetic abt it.
The ASSHOLE is a/an:-
1. TROUBLEMAKER => He sows discords among colleagues by encouraging disputes and disagreements. Ever since some colleagues be-friended him coz of his designation (ie. he needed supporters, they needed a backer), he has caused bad working relation among colleagues. One who used to be helpful previously has now become a complaint king. He even told some colleagues not to help some of us to answer phonecalls. -_-2. UNHYGENIC FELLA => He has a habit of sucking at his own teeth as if clearing them and making really annoying sounds while he does tat. He also coughs and sneezes into the air, not bothering to cover his mouth and nose while doing so. U might argue tat if he does all tat while at his cubicle, there is nothing we can complain abt...well wrong! He does all tat while walking around the office and sometimes while he collect printouts from the printer next to me. Positively disgusting!
3. "TAI-JI" MASTER => Nothing is his fault. Every error, mistake, problem, etc are other people's fault.
4. BOOTLICKER => He practically LICKS the floor tat his bosses walk passed and not just their boots. He targets and gets into the good books of the bosses one by one, giving praises and showcasing his talent at curry-flavouring.
5. BACKSTABBER => He pushes the blame of something he doesnt know how to do/solve to others. Our external IT support guys had to take the blame many times coz of this. As for internal people, well all mistakes are always others'...remember? Also to add tat he has the habit of digging info from conversing with people and then say "he/she said this/that" to a 3rd party.
6. NOISE POLLUTANT => He regularly and persistently imposes his lousy and outdated singing on those sitting near his workstation.
7. STINGY FOOL => How much can u save just by cutting the green tea and hand soap supplies in the office? And wats up with the 1 to 1 pen exchange policy? Stationery ordering which MUST be approved by him, even for a single pen??? Ridiculous.
8. ****-ING AH GUA => (Very sorry to those of you who might be Gay but are VERY VERY NICE people and happen to read this post...I meant as no insult to u....its just HIM). The way he talks to guys (eg. one of our IT support guy) sounded as if he is flirting with them. Hello?!! Workplace!!! There was one incident he was having this verbal sparring with tat IT guy and it definitely sounded like a "lovers' spat".
9. SMARTALECK => He tries to be the "know-it-all". When he debates with people over a certain topic/issue, u will like hear the words "listen to me" either in english or mandarin. Then he will insist he is right abt every topic of conversation. And even if he doesnt know the answer to a certain question and say someone else answers tat question, he will add "I also thought so" or "that's what I was thinking".
10. FAKEY => The way he laughs at some jokes...just one word - FAKE.
11. POOR DRESSER => His dressing is just all wrong. Mondays to Thursdays are not too bad coz guys cannot go too wrong with shirts and pants. But we had a few shocks on the first few fridays when he came dressed in bright orange or yellow colours.
12. LEECH => He is those kind of people who doesnt do much actual work in the office and only knows how to delegate work to others while he sits in his cubicle whole day calling and planning his next overseas trip. In game terms, we call this behaviour leeching coz u dun do any work and yet get experience = He doesnt do any work and get paid.
13. PRETENTIOUS IDIOT=> He pretends to be concerned/caring for some colleagues but always sounded like he has hidden meanings to wat he says. Eg. He told our pantry auntie, "Ah Soh, you have been in this firm for so long already, why didnt you go learn to speak English huh? You should go learn mah." - Not as if he is going to sponsor/make the firm sponsor auntie to the english language course right?
14. EAVESDROPPER => I lost count of the number of times he eavesdrop on our conversations coz we are unfortunately his neighbours in the office. How did I know he eavesdrop? Coz he interrupts mid-way through our conversations (be it personal or work-related conversations).
15. PEEPING TOM => Ok, I dun know wat phrase to describe this really. As he is the administrator of our IT system in the office, he actually have access to read EVERYONE's emails. Ethically, one wouldnt read others' emails unless u are checking on something. But he made it plain tat he reads our emails lor, even personal emails.
Decided to stop listing any other reasons for the asshole he is coz I am quite sure the above reasons explain my point sufficiently.
