What do people get out of being mean?


I swear, some people seem to take pleasure in being mean. I think today was "Be an Asshole Day" at work and I didn't get the memo.

My dad told me there would be assholes everywhere I go when I quit a job one time because I couldn't deal with them. I'm not sure what he meant by that. Maybe he meant that I was cursed and they'd all follow me around.

I know a lot of the stuff that happens where I work wouldn't fly if the workforce was unionized. However, I work with a bunch of conservative dipshits who don't like unions despite the fact that they would benefit greatly from one. They don't see that. There is simply no collective will there to organize.

It's hard to look for another job when you have one working day shift full time. I managed to get off early one day this week and go to the local employment office. Where I live, the only way to apply for some of the good jobs is to go through these employment agencies. I had heard that a good local auto parts manufacturer had some openings and the only way to apply was through the agency. The woman I worked with there was very kind. I filled out the application there and I had brought in my resume. She reworked my resume to make it appealing to the company I was applying for. Then she gave a recommendation to the company concerning me after she spoke with me a bit. I'm really hoping I get on there. It pays very well and it's UAW.

Unions will save you Tobin! Really!

1. Speaking as someone in the workforce +45 years your dad was right: Assholes are everywhere. He may have meant it just that way, and not that there's something wrong with you. As for mean people - they're just very unhappy and have to take it out on others. I wouldn't be surprised if they enjoy it because it's a kind of release, but ultimately it doesn't help them.

Good luck on the job search. It is difficult to look for another job while employed but the alternative is worse.

Tobin has talked about quitting his job for the last 3+ years. Still hasn't. The problem is with him.

4. Ah, my dear Tobin...

I think it gives them a sense of purpose and control in their lives. I'm not sure, though.

I'm sorry you had to deal with it today.

And good luck with the auto parts manufacturer!

Tobin is a whiny little liberal ***** and the rest of the truck drivers know it. When he spouts in sane shit like "Bernie will make this country a socialist paradise!" they laugh in his face. When he starts to cry they laugh harder.

8. best of luck, Tobin

My experience wasn't good - more assholes than not. I made a good paycheck and so just tried to suffer through it. Actually it was much like high school to me.

I guess it never dawns on any of them that the fact they can`t ever get along with anyone is their own doing.

A little part of me is hoping Tobin gets that union job.  After a few weeks of him saying about how great it is we all know it will quickly start to turn negative.  Then who will he blame?

I bet if he quits spouting the liberal mantra at work things get better for him. You know, don't stir the ant hill and expect not to get bit.
Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

People were mean.

I'm going to guess someone took the last doughnut in the break room and Tobin wanted it.

I'm also guessing he's not the hardest worker.  Wonder how many co-workers have to pick up his slack.

What a whiny little bitch.

I'm surprised that the employment agency had a job with one qualification: must be a whiny little bitch. It's the only job Tobin is actually qualified for.

Could it be they aren't mean...they just get fed up with your petchulant whiny Libtard attitude?
