Creep

So there was this manager at my company who suspiciously disappeared about 2 years ago.

He was a total prick, completely condescending to me, and his work seemed like something that could be product of a sixth grader with a bad attitude. He was middle aged, seemed "very tidy," very opinionated about quality, always wore sweaters & wire rimmed glasses, etc.... He belittled me one time, in a meeting in front of other people, for having a Viagra pen. (I thought it was cool, OK?) "How embarrassing" he said. "The fucking nerve you have! I could kick your ass into next Tuesday," I thought.

Fortunately, I didn't have to work with him directly, and rarely had to deal with his nincompoopery.

I'd learned officially that he'd be "gone indefinitely" because he ended up missing a few days of work. I learned through the grapevine that he was in jail for beating his wife. Something I kinda expected from such a douche.

Today, I learned from a new counterpart of mine--a former inferior of his--that our director actually had her "gathering information on him." One thing she said in particular was that he would call her & another female co-worker of hers(both early 20-somethings), into his office "just to chat," and that despite their *completely honest* protests of being overworked & busy, he would just want to listen to music with them in his office.

"just listen to 2 more songs, and I'll let you get back to work." She told me that a few days later, he actually showed up to work with cuts all over his hands. I bet the bastard was cheating on his wife, and beat the crap out of her when she found out about it.

What a creep. I hope that I never have to deal with a person like that again. And if I do, I'll have the opportunity to coincidentally meet them in a dark alley.

From now on, I dub all creepy douches to be: "Ross"

spread the word.

I don't know if you have HD cable service, but there is a channel called MojoHD and its awesome. Its regular programming consists of shows which are themed around getting your Mojo on. So there is one about cars, several about fine dinning, and a couple about drinking. The best one is called Three Sheets and the host often finds someone along his travels he calls Ski Patrol. This is basically a creepy person that will not leave him alone and loves the camera. So for me, a creep earns the title of Ski Patrol. You should watch the show, I think you'd love it.

Thinking it and making it happen said...

Please inform me when you are able to make the time and place of aforementioned dark alley,
I would like to join you in giving Ross what he deserves.
