As some of you know, I work in a very small office.
There are a total of 30 people here, MAX.
It's not my dream job nor do I like most of the people I work with but hey, it pays the bills.
and if you're wondering what the hell my title means, just wait.
There's this guy that I work with who acts like he is severely juiced up on steroids and takes a big ole dose of 12 year old immaturity EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
Literally I can't make this guy up.
He's a version of angry Andy from The Office.
I kid you not.
One time he thought it would be funny to shun this one girl at work.
He seriously didn't and wouldn't talk to her for 1 month.
He eats lunch in his car every day and yes, some people just don't like eating in front of people, I get that.
But he also refuses to open gifts in front of other people as well.
He has gotten into more fights at the office than anyone here and he's only been here for a year.
For a while he thought it was funny to take a pooper in the women's bathroom and....NOT FLUSH.
He sing sneezes.
And allow me to explain that one.
He sneezes and then adds some type of sound to it.
And not just an achoo-eee kind of thing but a legit aCHOOOOO DFSIDHTSKDGHKZSKDJGEROTIFGNDFGNDDTRIEORITO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not kidding you.
Many people have complained to management.
So this is where my title comes in.
I guess being pregnant you develop this "I don't give a shit, I will tell you off for looking at me wrong" mentality.
But this guy, angry Andy, has decided the new "funny" thing to do is take a pooper (what is with this kid and pooping??), hide the febreeze and then NOT turn the fan on.
And it's...unbearable.
So this morning, I walk into the bathroom at 9am and if any of you are like me, there isn't much I can stand that early, let alone something that smells like death, and BAM.
**GAG**
***GAAAAAAAG***
So I walk out, look at the girl who's in the cubicle with a direct view to the bathroom (best seat in the house obvs) and say, WHO THE HELL JUST CAME OUT OF THERE?!?
And I already knew it.
In my gut of guts.
Angry Andy.
Also, early last week, a few women were complaining about how awful the women's restroom smelt and he started giggling...they asked what was funny and so he straight up told them what he was doing.
Big mistake, HUGE.
Once the girl confirmed my already knowingly thought, I walked straight back to my desk and just sat there for a second.
How was I going to handle this?
What I'd like to do is finish my gagging on his desk and show him the banana wrap I had for breakfast but I knew that wouldn't end too well for my sake.
So I thought what any office worker would, AN EMAIL!!!
So I grew me a pair and wrote an email.
Yea, I threatened HR.
I mean seriously, what's a pregnant girl to do?!!?
I know, maybe it was a little harsh and embarrassing (for the both of us) but this kid gets away with MURDER.
This is the same kid who cussed at a Pharmacist who has been here for 15 years.
Not cool man, not cool.
So I thought it was well-deserved.
Then this is where it got weird.
He comes to my desk, and wants to apologize for pooping, not turning the fan on and then hiding the febreeze. He also wants to apologize for making me gag. He says that he enjoys crude humor but realizes from my email that it isn't always taken the best way.
Okay, a couple of thoughts:
1. it must be incredibly humiliating to have to apologize for something like this
2. I'm incredibly humiliated just listening
3. I wouldn't define that as crude humor. That's not even CLOSE to humor AT ALL.
4. please hurry and leave.
So after he apologized, I asked him to please not continue this behavior and that I'm over it if he will oblige.
Seriously...weirdest day, EVER.
And i'm not sure why I'm sharing this except for the mere fact that I don't want to be the only one who has to think about it, so of course I share it with my bloggy friends :)
you're welcome.



OHMIGOSH!!! Rye that is the worst and most horrible attempt I have ever heard of at trying to be funny. I knew that the kid was an idiot, but I had no idea at what extent. Yuckity yuck is all I have to say..
ReplyDeleteyou go girl!
ReplyDelete#1. how has he not be fired for openingly admitting these things?? this would not fly in a bigger office! esp bc he admitted it was him!!!
#2. how could he legit stand there and say that it's "crude humor"...too bad it's just RUDE!
barf. i'm glad you stood up for yourself and all the other women who have to use that bathroom!
Wow. What the f*ck is wrong with this guy? He REALLY needs to grow up... I've never heard of anyone acting that horribly in a professional setting.
ReplyDeleteYikes! This guys sounds like he could use a strong talkin' to. Crazy to think that people have such little shame to act like that -- and that's coming from a gal who classifies herself as quite shameless!
ReplyDeleteCant read the email via my phone but I can imagine :) Haha!! #douchebag Go get em mama!!
