Tale of the dumbass continues
10 years ago
So I am sure some of you read about my dumb coworker and the awful wednesday I had. Well to probably no surprise he did it again, but this time its much funnier.
Not more then 5 mins into my shift starting this A-hole had to open his mouth. After I arrived at work I had to help a customer find an item, took us a little bit to find it but as we were passing the main group of workers this idiot opens his mouth by saying "Hey, get to work and stop slacking." He may have been trying to be funny (which it wasnt) but that shit was inappropriate when I am walking with a customer. I ignored him til I finished helping the person, then I marched right over to him, got in his face and told him in a stern and angry voice "Dont you ever talk to me like that again when I am with a guest!" (Target calls customers guests)
I stared him down and he tried to act tough back, telling me that I better step off or he was going to gonna knock me down. We had a good stand off, him trying to talk tough while I stay quiet, just waiting for him to throw the first punch. Another coworker got between us to break it up, the little shit was the first to back away and as he did he went from a serious face and then did the weakest thing ever....he giggled, like a little girl. So as I finally turned away I taunted him, telling him he giggles like a girl, just kept saying it to all his responses. Pissed him right off. He began having a tantrum like a child, yelling out as the department supervisor separated us. I was quiet the whole time just laughing inside while he is cursing out loud in front of everyone. Examples of what he said "Why am I in trouble!? He's a smartass to everyone! This is bullshit!" It was just fucking hilarious, I laid a trap and he fell for it but instead of trying to get out he was just digging his own grave deeper.
We were separated the whole time but honestly I felt fucking great afterwards, one of the managers pulled me aside to talk about what happened and why it did. I explained calmly to him everything and that I was sick of his attitude and he agreed that everyone was too. Which I wanted to ask why they didnt fire him then cause he was only upsetting people but I just kept silent on that. I wasnt in a ton of trouble really, he was. A cool head and knowing the rules and you can make a high ego asshole like that break with ease. It was rather enjoyable today lol.
It wont be long before he is gone and work wont be so bad. From now on I just plan to report him to the supervisors each time I hear them say something cause I showed him that Im not gonna take his BS anymore.
And little side note, I am a smartass but I usually use mild and humorous sarcasm with my coworkers.

I would have, again, used violence and most likely would have had to pay the price for that. (A veeeeeeeeery high one considering I wouldn't have taken a single shit from the police either...)
I'm not the kind of guy intelligent enough to go for subtle traps and things of the sort... Not in real life atleast.
However... In all honesty I get the feeling that had I remained calm and silent like you did he would have snapped either-way... Just like a "little bitch" (Exactly as I mentioned last time xD)
Now me...I got a bitch to quit her job. She literally stepped back and bumped into me and told me I should've said excuse me. She got angry that I told the manager why I put my hands up when it had happened. I wasn't even going to say a thing to either her or anyone else, unless someone had asked and the manager did. She told me that I shouldn't mess with her. I told her "I'm not afraid of you and it is me that you should watch out for."
Like a week later, she quit. I love how I didn't get in trouble either. I've been able to write notes to the manager about other people that have been being either a bitch or an asshole right in front of the manager, they didn't really care, as long as I did my job and took a customers order right away.
Then an asshole that kept being bossy just because he didn't want to do a damn thing at the job, quit as well. And I have a feeling it was because of me standing up to him. And again, I didn't get in trouble,
I think it is because I put in a lot of effort in my job and these two people always slacked off.
