Yesterday at the shitshow I was blown away by a true shitshow moment. One of the flunkies in my group was apparently upset because people on his program were pressuring him to do the work he was supposed to do. For any average worker the workload wouldn’t be that bad, but this guy is a complete flunky. He’s not a Bob figure because he actually cares and tries, he’s just incompetent and slow. I’m guessing he’ll be a flunktional manager in no time (see “An Abundance of Dunces” and “Fail Your Way to the Top”).
Anyways this guys comes into the office area really upset and walks directly to my cubical. He takes a step into my cubical and starts yelling over and over again “hey Jacko, did you finish that task yet.” It get’s better, as he’s yelling this phrase he’s kicking my trash can.
I believe I witnessed the birth of a baby King Kong! It was a beautiful site. Eventually the local flunktional manager comes out his office 10 feet away from all the yelling and defuses the situation.
I should have thrown a rock and called HR, but in the end I figured it more entertaining to have a baby King Kong running around. Of course, flunktional management did nothing to follow up on the situation.
Because baby King Kongs are born in front of me without any repercussion from flunktional management I throw rocks.
