So there's this manager at work who got promoted like a year ago and who I've always been side eyeing as a potential dickhead. He's shallowly charming but not actually friendly, overwnthusiastic about the job and painting himself as the most competent employee, and has already done shady things like snitch on a co-worker for stealing food even though he was probablybsecond only to me as a food theif.
Already as a manager he's clamped down on not paying for food, spoken stupidly openly about taking the store manager's job, and wrote up this little Dr. Seuss story about personal responsibility and productivity featuring three characters named "Everybody", "Somebody", and "Nobody" which he tried to have everyone read before clocking in on his shifts EVERY SINGLE DAY. Luckily he gave it up after one day and I'd like to think me refusing to do so and referring to it to his face as "annoying" and "capitalist propaganda" might have convinced him it wasn't worth the effort but he probably was just lazy.
And now I heard him declaring to someone else that after the new year he's going to start making sure nobody wears headphones on the clock. So far he hasn't been the worst guy ever so I've been giving him the benefit of the doubt that maybe he's just kind of a dickhead but not that bad but he's officially now just a deadend job petty tyrant loser.
