Whilst I was busy all morning working my fat ass off, what was Gay Daniel doing?
Certainly not any of the things I told him to do, that’s for fucking sure.
Audits? Why should he do those when Dirk will?
Fixing a MAJOR scheduling snafu I told him to correct? Um, if it doesn’t affect him why would he bother?
Contacting Human Resources about an employee’s non-existent health benefits that should have kicked in 7 months ago (and which they should have mentioned to me 6 months ago but I digress)? Uh-uh.
No, Gay Daniel did none of these.
Because he was uber busy making — are you ready? — a fucking paper clip necklace which he carefully shaped into a heart and placed a Post-It with “Daniel + Bobby” in the center of. And to make things even more gooder infuriating, he then took a pic with his cell phone and sent it to the ‘roid ragin’ gym rat object of his affection.
And why did he do this? Because he’d hurt Bobby’s “feelings” by refusing to call in sick and spend the day with him instead.
That boy is seriously lucky that “beating the shit out of goddamn idiots” is listed as a no-no in the handbook or I’d be handing his ass to him right about now.
Why should GD stay home with Bobby and not do anything when he can get paid for not doing anything? May I suggest next time you ask GD to do something give him a time limit. Maybe say, “I’ll be back in a half-hour to see if it is done.” Then when it is not done put your foot down and let him know who is boss. I know you want everyone to like you (who doesn’t?) but it ain’t going to happen with a slacker like this guy. He’ll only like you if he doesn’t have to do anything. He needs his Ass kicked and not in a good way. Tell him it is Ray-Ray’s way or the highway!

Okay, I don’t even know a teenage girl who would have come up with the heart-shaped paperclip pendant idea. The post-it sure made it classy. Now, I’m jealous! How come no one ever emails pix of such heartfelt crafts to me?

I’d love to be a fly on the wall in your place of employement. Well maybe not a fly, they’re gross and annoying. A lady bug I think, no one would swat at me.

You need to:
1- find roid rage’s phone number
2- make a paperclip necklace
3- shape necklace into middle finger
4- text it to Roid and say that you are going to fucking FIRE his boyfriend if he doesn’t quit fucking off

Isn’t that considered destruction of employer property?

So can you get him to send you a picture of the necklace so you can post it on here with instructions on how to make our own version. If nothing else it will be a good laugh.

What a phule. A young phule. That little boy needs to learn how to survive in the real world. He ain’t in high school anymore. One of these days, GD, “POW”, right in the kisser.

Oh em effing gee.
Bee Tee Double You, from the sound of it, don’t be sure that Gay Daniel’s ass isn’t being handed to him on a regular basis from Roid Rage.

As much as one feels sorry for GD, you’re not doing him any favors. Tough love is called for here. Check up on him after assigning tasks, and tell him you’re making a written note of his non-compliance (and really DO it). A good paper trail is your friend! And then, if he gets his ass in gear and performs, you can give him strokes (metaphorically speaking). If he could ever feel genuinely valued at work, maybe he’d start to see roid rage dude in a more realistic light and tell him to f*ck off.
