So, what's the problem?

😕

its a constant.
ill break it down.
there are five of us
lets say im guy 3 in pecking order
Guy 1 mails it in, lazy..incompetent but not a hardass and not one to criticize..not a BAD person
Guy2 knows more than guy 1, saves Guy 1's bacon time and again(and really runs the show)..but at the same time loathes guy 1
Im Guy 3 and pretty much just show up and work..friends with Guy 2,but he is my superior and about 18yrs my senior.We dont always agree but we are friends
Guy 4...out of his mind, useless,but crazy enough to be dangerous...as vindictive as they come...a time bomb.Hates guy 1 ith a passion, doesnt trust guy 2, or even me i would imagine.Huge wave maker,bomb thrower, very sensitive, i really feel for his situation...but its beyond me.
Guy 5...same as Guy 3 cept hes the youngest by nine years...(me) not much of a boat rocker.

anyhow we are supposed to be a team....
🙁

Sounds like Guy 4 is the odd man out. How long has he been around?


hes the newest, 9 months or so.

That makes so much sense it isn't even funny. He's just trying to either a) keep his job or b) move up in position. Unless of course, he's really just crazy.

I wouldn't stress it - stuff like that happens at every job.
 
walk up to the person and beat the holy $hit out of them, I have found this to be an effective way to shut them up.

though at my job we talk sh!t even when the person is still in the room.

ino.this isnt the fun type of batting the breeze talking shiat...its more like character assasination, backstabbing talking shiat.

dude, that's the best kind 😀
