the other day, i got an email from this guy who i work with and he was asking me about something i had done for him over a year ago
he had a big presentation to make at our staff retreat, based on the demographic data i had given him, and he wasn’t prepared
so he asked me if i still had it
being that i have dealt with such fuckwittery often at my job, i never throw anything away
then, he said if i had it, he would buy me chocolate..and asked me if i liked dark or milk chocolate
which means, yes, i had it
so i emailed him back and said "dark", that was it
so i sent it to him and he fell all over himself thanking me, for, basically, doing my job
when i was getting my mail the other day, there were some lovely norwegian dark chocolate wafers in my box to reward me for being able to accomodate a fucktard =)
i know this is not very nice. and in most cases, the gentleman in question seems like a nice enough fellow. it’s just that people often expect herculean effort out of others and reward them in kind, when if they had just actually done something properly to begin with, such measures would have been unnecessary.
now, for your viewing pleasure (link opens in new window, i think):

come on, my life is filled with teen drama….give me a little bit of a break for being mean just this once, will ya?
thanks =)
