You want to be petty with everyone at work? Okay no problem! I can do the same!
I work at a job where we have a union.
While the pay, benefits, and job security is great, it unfortunately means infinite get-out-of-jail free cards for crappy workers.
There is someone at my job who is always the victim in every situation in classic narcissistic fashion. They'll drag their feet and force everyone to give in and help him just so they can get out on time. He complains when he doesn't get his way and makes excuses whenever he's called out on things he shouldn't be doing. He definitely acts like an entitled person.
On the rare occasions where he's finally going to get reprimanded he will magically get injured at work and be out on leave for months at a time to wait out the write-up or corrective action. Basically this POS gets away with everything and has for years. Somehow the union is always protecting him when it should be the other way around.
I don't actively have any personal issues with him but I still don't like him for how much he's affected people I work with. He's pushed people to tears and almost getting fired for confronting him angrily. Occasionally he'll try to start small stuff with me but I never entertain it or spin it back on him in a way that makes him look dumb.
My job has uniform cleaning service and the other day I was in the locker room grabbing my uniforms off the wall where the new clean ones are usually placed and I put them all on the rack on the other side of the wall. Some employees like to leave their uniforms on this rack and just change at work and others (like myself) will take them home.
I set them next to A-hole worker's uniforms and thought nothing of it (our uniforms have our names on the inside of the collars). I forgot to take my uniforms home and a day later I come back to work and he had given me a weird look but I thought nothing of it. I go to the locker room and my uniforms are back on the wall and A-hole worker's uniforms are where mine were originally.
"Okay!", I thought to myself. "You want to be petty and act like you own the locker room too, no problem!", I took every clean uniform he had in there and threw them straight in the big metal dirty hamper that can only be opened with a key.
I came back a day later and saw all his uniforms back on the rack and the hamper broken open. The uniforms were all wrinkled and tattered looking and he's been extra quiet at work these last couple of days.
I'm planning to just do the same all over again or maybe throw them away so he'll have to wait a few months for new ones to come in.
I'm normally not petty but I'll make an except for this asshole.
