| Topic | My coworker is such a baby. |
| KogaSteelfang 11/04/19 5:53:59 PM #31 | The meeting was pointless, the power was out at both hotels and the main point of it was cancelled. I just had to sit through a lecture meant for a bunch of the other guys. About the schedule, my manager was already gone. She threw her back out earlier and left, he told her he was switching it and she said she didn't care. So, guess it's my shift now. Zangulus posted...

| KogaSteelfang 11/04/19 12:18:41 PM #15 | Zangulus posted... He may be acting like a baby and throwing a tantrum as you put it. That doesnt mean he should succumb to the companys failure to maintain an adequate work force that doesnt require people working doubles all the time just to keep up. Neither the company, or me are asking anything unreasonable of him. Simply for him to work the given schedule. His hours aren't unreasonable, it's not an unreasonable shift. There's no reason for this to be an issue aside from him simply not wanting to do it. He's the only one of us working a regular shift, and his unwillingness to work one day he doesn't like, while I'm the one picking up all the slack and actually working unfair hours so he can can have his days off is frustrating. So I ask, which is better? For him to stand up against the company and refuse to work just because he doesn't like it. Or would it be better for me to stand up, stick with my current schedule, and not switch? Those are the only options, and both require one of us to sacrifice something for the other, it's not the company that's being stood up to here. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |

Or more likely the case, they have people willing to bend over backwards and take it up the backside and work themselves to death instead of quitting. Apparently the managers have been getting fussed at about the amount of overtime we've been getting. The company doesn't like this situation any more than we do, my coworker is just the only one unwilling to help ease the burden a bit by working an earlier shift than he likes. This guy gets 3 days in a row off this week, I get 2 but they're split up, and my manager only gets one. It won't hurt him to miss a Sunday afternoon one time, and his underhanded tricks and trying to lie/manipulate his way out of it is just annoying. He's perfectly happy to leave me hanging with just 6 hours rest between shifts, but 3 days is unfair to him? Even with him being out of town, and "not having time" to get to work puts him getting home at 3am, which leaves him 12 hours compared to the 6 I'd get. Not that I even believe he's going anywhere to begin with.

| KogaSteelfang 11/04/19 9:36:47 AM #7 | If only it were that easy, I fold like a lawn chair when confronted. I was so ready to tell him off last night, then he showed up I couldn't bring myself to say anything. I'll see how things go today at the meeting, but I know he's already talked to her this morning and will end up pressuring me in front of everyone today. ...anyone got a spine I can borrow? --- Work in progress, please be patient. |
| Topic | My coworker is such a baby. |
| KogaSteelfang 11/04/19 8:55:39 AM #2 | Plus, I have a feeling if I refuse he'll threaten to quit. Without him there'll just be 2 of us and we'd have to pull 12 hours shifts 7 days per week till someone else came along and both me and the other employee are relatively new. I knew him in high school, and from working here before. He's not beyond throwing a literal tantrum to get what he wants. It's just ridiculous in general how he expects to be catered to. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |
| Topic | My coworker is such a baby. |
| KogaSteelfang 11/04/19 8:47:42 AM #1 | We're still short staffed, so we've been having to work long/odd hours. He only works 3rd shift, simply because it's his preferred shift. There's no reason he's on a set schedule outside of it just being a courtesy to him. Meanwhile my shift swings around between 3rd on his days off, and both first and second shifts the other days, my shifts last 12-16 hours because I'm splitting the day with the only other employee here. Just this past weekend I had to pull a 12 hour overnight shift, was off 8, came back in for 12 hour 2nd shift, off 8, then was back in for a first shift the next day. I live 40 minutes away, those 8 hours between shifts were very short and it was rough to deal with. I've also been getting called in early, and made to stay late... That's how things have been since I started a month ago, getting loads of overtime just to have all the shifts covered while he just works his regular shift. So, this week's schedule rolls out, and it has him working a single second shift following him getting 2 days off(3 actually since he leaves at 7am Thursday and doesn't come back till 3pm Sunday). As soon as he saw it he started throwing a tantrum "this shit ain't gonna fly" and "it's unfair to have to me work then because I won't get enough rest" then "just why the hell am I expected to work this this?" He immediately started pressuring me to switch with him so he'd get his 3rd shift back and once again put me only getting 8 hours off between my shifts(which is really only 6 since I live so far). I told him I'd think about it, so he went to my manager and told her that I wanted to switch with him. She asked me yesterday, and I told her no that I didn't. I explain the situation and she gets upset because she only swapped our shifts as a favor to me so I wouldn't have to be right back to work with just 8 hours between, and said that its his schedule and I don't have to switch if I don't want to. So then he comes in last night and turns out he made plans to go out of town with his friend Sunday and won't be back until too late to be at work on second so I "have" to switch with him. Today is my day off, but I have to go back in for a mandatory meeting anyway and he said he's gonna tell her he's not available to work that shift since he made plans. The more I think about it the angrier I get, not because of the schedule exactly, but because if the principle of it, and that he thinks he deserves special treatment, and how he made plans knowing he was scheduled to work just to try and weasel out of it. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |

I corrected it and was hit with a block and a warning that the next time my account will be toast. I appealed it as far as I could explaining that the situation was several years old, and that I wasn't even the one who initially posted it... but it was a no go. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |

| Topic | Are you ugly enough that saying blatantly sexual things when meeting a woman |
| KogaSteelfang 11/03/19 11:01:14 AM #11 | I've never purposefully been sexually blatant like that. I'm very guarded irl when it comes to that sort of thing. That being said there have been times when I accidentally phrased something wrong and gave it that connotation, the responses have always been laughter or lighthearted joking about it. It tends to be fairly embarrassing, and I don't like it. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |
| Topic | For those who are single/forever alones,is there a girl you just can't get over? |
| KogaSteelfang 11/01/19 10:00:42 PM #22 | Was gonna skip this part, but whatever. To continue on about the co-worker I liked, I quit that job shortly afterwards because of unrelated issues. Thought that would be the end of it Turns out that my dad had been causing her issues too. Apparently he'd been sending her raunchy texts and pictures, she just forwarded them to my mom and it caused a lot of drama there. So, to be honest I'm not sure if her pulling away was actually a reaction to me, or if it was because of him. Also unsure if he was actually trying to get with her himself, or if he just did that to ruin things for me since he knew I liked her. I'm leaning towards the latter, but it doesn't matter now anyway. She's with someone else now and it turns out I never had a chance regardless. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |

| Topic | For those who are single/forever alones,is there a girl you just can't get over? |
| KogaSteelfang 11/01/19 8:59:50 PM #20 | Not really. There's one that stings to think about how foolish I was at the time though. I had a fairly big crush on her, but she was way out of my league. Super pretty, talented, and always had a flock of guys after her. So I figured my chances were less than zero. We worked the same job, but my shift was after hers. We'd only see each other when she was leaving. She had mentioned before that she hated that kind of attention, so I decided to leave her alone and just not bother. But one night she stayed late just to talk with me, it was really nice. We joked and laughed with each other, she was kind of playful and bubbly. No one's ever treated me like that before, or after... So like an idiot I kind of thought that maybe she did like me after all. Turns out I was wrong of course. Some co-workers kept trying to get us to date, saying we'd make beautiful babies together. At this point she's still talking with me and being regular friendly. So when it got mentioned again that we should date, I said I wouldn't mind that. Word got back to her of what I said, and she distanced herself. Wouldn't talk to me or even look at me any more. I should've known, she was never interested. It was just an overly friendly moment that led to us being closer and then I ruined it. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |
| Topic | Do you think you're hot? |
| KogaSteelfang 11/01/19 6:03:13 PM #4 | Personally, no. I have a very low opinion of myself though. I do tend to get plenty of compliments even though I don't really take care of myself and tend to kind of disheveled looking. IDK, at this point I think I've accepted that my opinion of myself isn't the one I should be basing things on. Still... batting zero in the dating game makes me question things too. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |

At least it's helping keep my mind off of other things, and having money again is nice. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |

I'm guessing I was taken during the years when I was too young to remember. I think I might have vague memories of the year before but it's too hazy to know for sure. Besides at the time I lived next door to my grandma and her house was the family hub, so loads of other family stopped by.

| KogaSteelfang 10/25/19 1:30:04 PM #8 | My cousin that lives with me is like that. He's mentally challenged though, so I can't really hold it against him too much. He acts like he absolutely needs to be saying something at all times, he even talks in his sleep, to videos he's watching, to himself when he's in another room even when he's in the shower I can hear him talking. It can be overwhelming at times when the instant you get out of ged he attaches to you for hours on end of just saying nothing. Also, my co-worker. Nothing wrong with him, just likes to talk. He never shuts up, which is ok because I'm used to that by now, but he's also the kind of guy who already knows everything about everything and will correct you just to prove he knows more. On the rare occasion you do get the chance to say something, you'll be interrupted mid sentence by him trying to finish the sentence for you and use that as a jumping point to talk even more. --- Work in progress, please be patient. |
