MANAGER has left the building....

The self procalimed [b]MANAGER[/b] of our little team has upped and left the company. Yup. After six months of sneaking around and doing all sorts of property deals on company time, he has decided that there is a life outside the cesspool that is our office.

Well good for him. Not exactly. That smug bastard has been acting up. The shithead we have to swallow our pride for and call [b]BOSS[/b] was asking after me today, inquiring as to why the hell I didn't give him some information he thought I should have. I was taking a leak at the time, and the [b]MANAGER[/b] thought it would be funny to act shocked and play along. It was actually decided that he would pass that info to the boss himself, but thought this would be better. And I didn't know till now. Lovely.

Does anyone else have colleagues that spend most of their time instant messaging each other and speaking in hushed consiratorial tones all day long? No? Good for you, because it's ridiculous rude and very, very messed up.

He leaves effective the first of net month. Meaning, he picks up a paycheck as a final token and is out. However he has been in and out of the office as if it were his father's for the last three weeks. And guess who has to cover??

There are effectively two others that will be the inheritors of a mess. The company is too cheap to hire anyone else or to promote amongst ourselves, so this vacancy will be filled by us but without the added respect or pay packet that we ought to get. I'll have to pat myself on the back.

Oh, and I have an exam coming up early in December which is half of my ticket out of this place. The only problem is that I have been ridden so hard, that I haven't been able to find much time to study. I'm actually writing this as I attempt it. If I flunk, I will be here for another [size=20][b]YEAR[/size][/b] longer than is absolutely necessary. That would mean heavy drinking and such a screwed up scenario I shudder to even imagine it could happen. Guess who'll be having a lot of fun till Christmas??

[size=24][b]FUCK THIS JOB![/size][/b]

And I tell you the worst part of a story like this is that it's SO COMMON. I was working a job like this and the bastards thought that it was part of the training program.

Get shit on - Move up - Shit on someone else (worse than you got it).

And the best part, aside from insiduously long hours no social life for many years, and a therapists bill comparing the the national debt?

You get paid fucking peanuts. A least I did. The monney's basically a carrot. They show you the carrot and you run after it but it's on a long stick. And then they ram you with it.
