Oh my.
Le Gaucher (867 posts) Wed Apr 18, 2018, 09:42 AM
I took out a new hire at work for lunch..
This guy comes across as a very calm and deliberate thinker ..
But when a homeless guy walked past us on the sidewalk while we were having our lunch .. his true colors started showing. He blamed entitlements for the deficit. I had to fight from blowing a fuse. I steered the conversation towards automation and companies are able to generate larger and larger revenues with smaller workforces... And he said the economy is humming along because of Trump and he liked it .. he is very happy with Trump and will vote for him again.
I am done being nice to this guy .. am not helping him with anything.. and he needs me big time. I will screw him very quietly.
On edit:
I am not actively Sabotaging or anything -- I just wont help him
Second edit:
The guy sensed he crossed a line .. and apologized for bringing up politics.
Hmmmm.
One of the first comments is from the primitive expert on protocol for funerals for First Ladies:

7. I would not have said a word but merely walked up to the homeless man and given him a few bucks
whatever I had available and wished him a good day.
I would not have said anything to the coworker unless he started in again and then I'd simply say that I live my life as much as possible according to my values.
For some, that might be the golden rule...
Then I'd get my poker face on and dare him to say ANYTHING.
I think showing by example may well be the best thing you can do and then ignore the hell out of him.

9. Go ahead and screw him quietly.
He's an asshole.
The world will be better off if he doesn't advance.

11. I would keep an eye on the person because..
he clearly cannot process information correctly in order to come to a logical conclusion.

12. I was sympathetic with your position until
you said that you "will screw him very quietly." That is, I believe, completely unconscionable. Ignore him, if you must, but to take negative action in a job situation against a coworker is just ugly. Sharing it here was a mistake. If I were you, I'd self-delete or edit your post.
I hope you rethink this.
Yeah. The gauche primitive hasn't learned something yet.
It's always possible for jealous mischief-making primitives to find out where a fellow primitive works, and cause some trouble.....
Aristus (41,990 posts) Wed Apr 18, 2018, 11:02 AM
15. So, this dude sees someone who is cold, hungry, tired, possibly mental ill
and/or addicted to drugs, and vulnerable to theft, physical or sexual assault, and he thinks the guy is living high on the hog at government expense?
I disagree with the posts above. Cuts the legs out from under him as quickly and unobtrusively as you can.
Such people are a cancer on our society.
In case one's not aware, the Aristus primitive is a physician's assistant in Washington state. Originally from Texas and a close pal of the California Peggy primitive, he got ****ed up inside the head, and became a Democrat, liberal, and primitive.

17. So I have to assume from this,post that you would not treat a patient of yours who supports 45
the same as a liberal patient?
Aristus (41,990 posts) Wed Apr 18, 2018, 11:09 AM
18. No. I give all my patients 100% of my time and effort.
Most of my patients, however, are homeless, and would be looked down upon by the asshole described in the OP.
My concern is for the most vulnerable among us, not for some smug assclown who thinks he's all that just because he has a roof over his head.
Tipperary (1,950 posts) Wed Apr 18, 2018, 11:47 AM
24. Hmm. Interesting.
But the op should backstab some idiot simply for his political beliefs? That is a very slippery slope.

16. My suggestion is for you to seperate politics and work immediately.
DO YOUR JOB!!!!! If I were your boss and found out that you were causing inefficiencies by tripping up a coworker, I would fire you.
You what you know about the guy's politics to fight harder at keeping people that he likes out of office. If the guy is a bastard, believe me, others in your office will soon see that and he will sink from his own weight.
Doodley (2,874 posts) Wed Apr 18, 2018, 01:04 PM
41. Good advice. He would deserve to be fired if he plotted the downfall of a colleague.
Yeah. I've never had the experience, but I imagine being wallduded is a bitch.

The guy sensed he crossed a line .. and apologized for bringing up politics.
Speaking of crossing a line, how is threatening to sabotage a fellow employee - whether by action or inaction - not crossing a line with Le Gaucher's employer?! When I'm at work I do not give a @#$% about a fellow employee's political views, and I've worked with a raving self-described Socialist who could not say Reagan's name without an adjectival F-Bomb and a PNAC-conspiracy-theorist loony-toon. If (s)he needs my cooperation or input to do our job, (s)he's got it. That's called being professional!

I'm not buying this story at all. :bouncy: :bouncy:

Can someone explain where the term "wallduded" came from? Or more precisely, the story behind it? Thanks

You may be willing to give him someone else's bucks, but I really have a hard time believing you'd give him any of yours.

There's several links, but here's one:

Thank you! Epic stupidity.
I swear... Someone should write a sketch comedy program where their bouncies and fails are acted out.

The primitives blame us, but in all cases, the primitive got himself into trouble at work, or even fired without any help from this side.
By the way, anybody seen the retrowire primitive lately? The one who went all psychotic on Skins's island?

Both the Walldude & Doug Bulna outings were great. Such fond memories. Glad I was posting here and in the case of wall-dud, CU.
Also, the late great Crockspot and uncovering the Jeb Eddy fake story..."Republican and ashamed" in the mid 2000's.
Good times!!! :cheersmate:

That was my favorite. Ah, good times . . .

Is there a handy link somewhere for the earwig episode for Kc25? That was my favorite, that and Bulna.
As for this one, I think we should put Tess Anderson on the case.

Hopefully karma will kick in and he will take your job when they fire you :loser:

My thought as well. I haven't seen Tess/Teresa around here or CU for a few days, probably busy with life.

Actually, Indians are successful enough that in ProgLand they are only conditionally PC minorities. It is common for universities to discriminate against Indians in admissions.
