I picked up a part time job for the extra cash and decent benefits (discounts on things I do), and I cannot believe how nuts it is at this place.
I've seen more drama in a couple of weeks at this employer than I saw in the entirety of my grade school through university years.
Day 1: Y: Have you heard about X, she's a real bitch that only works hard when the boss is around.
Day 2: X: Have you heard about Y, he's the laziest son of a bitch in this place.
Day 3: Z: Watch out for X and Y, they're about to be fired because they're both really bad at their jobs, and they've been warned many times.
Day 4: Z: "I quit."
Day 5: X: The "where I work" didn't get vacuumed last night.
Treefall: Oh, I vacuumed, sorry...I didn't realize I did such a bad job.
X: There was a pile of peanuts and papers under "a random object."
Treefall: Sorry about that...next time I'll make sure to look under "a random object"
X: The vacuuming wasn't even a big deal. I'm more concerned with "another thing." (This person is constantly trying to find things Y has done wrong, and when someone else admits to being the one to fuck up it's "no big deal."
Literally, these people are bickering over a minimum wage job that's not worth working outside of the benefits. Everyone has some sort of superiority complex over very menial tasks that a zombie could accomplish.
I've never met so many backstabbing, butt-hurt folks in my entire life. Literally, whoever is working will talk shit about who is not working..or about anyone not in the room, and just keep rotating.
Today I literally had this old man that works, maybe 10 hours a week, tell me an auditor came through and was pissed about the work people did. When I asked him who the auditor was...he said "me, I'm making sure this place is good for real auditors."
My mind is blown.
