I’m talking about the guy who might as well build a house in the supervisor’s office...

The guy who shamelessly sucks up and kisses arse at every opportunity...

Tell me about ‘that guy’ in your office

I am pretty sure there is one, to some degree, in every office.

We have a new one in the office. The guy seemed pretty alright the first couple of months, but they guys have noticed more and more that he sucks up to every single supervisor and basically attempts to camp out in their office every chance he gets. Most of the guys in the office have been starting to make comments to his face to give him hints, but he doesn’t seem to get that the arse kissing is getting annoying.

Even one of the supervisors has made comments that he’s picked up on it. It’s kind of a running joke in the office

Well that guy will be getting a promotion soon, and you won't.

It’s not kissing arse. It’s politicking. You gotta make moves to get ahead son.

What bothers me more is working with stupid assholes.

I work with a guy and the problem is I’ve known him for ten years before I was even with this company. I more or less took his job from him. He got a lateral promotion. I can ask him a question and it’s always a smart arse remark back. Just make my life easier and answer the fricking question. Don’t answer a question with another stupid arse question.

And the summbitch is lazy. I’m a let’s get shite done now guy. Go go go. I have to rely on him for things and it’s absolutely agonizing. He thinks he’s right in all this. fricking idiot.

the supervisor

He is the biggest “kiss-arse” of them all, but he has his faithful followers that return the favor.

No, but I have a co-worker who tries to undermine me.

Yes and it is nauseating. She gets there at 7:30(we don’t start until 8:30) and always sends an e-mail out to “All” every morning right at 7:30 mainly to show everyone she is there. Also does the same thing on weekends: “hey guys I was in the office today and...” can’t stand her.

No, but I worked with my brother in law years ago and he’s the real life version of Dwight Schrute

I avoid kissing arse, but sometimes you have to do what it takes to get shite done. But it would be inaccurate to put me in the arse kissing category.

Yes. Not a team player until the boss walks in. The absolute worst.

I have one at my work and he threatens to call the owner any chance something doesn’t go his way.

I had a direct report that would do this shite. She’d get to work ridiculously early at like 6:30 AM and start blowing the whole departments email up. Simply to show she was at work. And it was always utter pointless bs that didn’t even need to be sent. When I’d walk in around 8 she’d come to my office full blast. I had to sit her down and tell her other employees have kids, stuff to do, lives, etc
