I'm thinking of turning full on heel on my co-workers. Got any advice? Not since I became a grownup. Sure, I've had folks not like me but nothing that reaches into something memorable Oh come on! This is a playful thread. Be playful! THIS I COMMAND!

One time. I worked in a department store. I was turning in the register cash drawer at the end of the night, and one of the store managers was in the cash room. I said "You look familiar," because I had seen her earlier that night. She said "Yeah, where'd you see me before?" I replied "I saw you up against a brass pole going like this" and did a pelvic thrust. She never looked at me the same again.

Oh come on! This is a playful thread. Be playful! THIS I COMMAND! No. I was all content to play along but you're not worth it. None of you are worth it. I'm going to take you back to a very deciding point in my life - a time when I believed in something. A time when I thought that my face and my name made a difference. Do you remember the night, Kamalabalboa, because it's embedded in my skull, it's embedded in my heart, and it's embedded in every nightmare that I will ever have again. As Cornfed took a bottle and began slicing and dicing Devon Dragon, the pain was so much, Kamala, that I'll be honest with you, I wanted to say, "I quit, Cornfed, I give, I wave the flag, and I'm a coward - please don't cut me anymore," when I saw my saving grace, you see, kamala, I looked out in that audience, my adoring crowd, and I saw two simple words that changed my life. Cane Dewey. Somebody had taken the time and the effort and the thought to make a sign that said "Cane Dewey." And I saw other people around, as every moment in my life stopped and focused in on that sign, and the pain that shot through my body became a distant memory, replaced by the pain which will be embedded into my skull to my dying day! "Cane Dewey. CANE DEWEY." Dewey Dragon is a three-year old boy, you sick sons of bitches! YOU RIPPED OUT MY HEART! YOU TOOK EVERYTHING I BELIEVED IN, AND YOU FLUSHED IT DOWN THE DAMN TOILET! You flushed my heart, you flushed my soul, and now it sickens me to sit back and see other people making the same mistake! Now that's a promo!

Yes, actually. About three years ago I supported a coworker's claim of discrimination, and oh my god were the next two years terrible. Imagine your own state agency trying to find something, anything, to attack you on. Line supervisors all the way to administration staff.
Yep, don't ever be black and be in Wyoming.

I still do, my job won't let me work Sundays because they would have to pay me more because I have the most experience. I also turned heel on my coworkers as well stating I am not doing their job plus mine if I were to do their job pay me more. Plus one of the people I work with blabbed I see a shrink after seeing a note I left for the HR lady and has told people

I had a guy screaming at me because of something he did to his computer, then after he was done, he told me he wasn't taking it out on me.

Great thread. Yes, I have had massive heat on the job. Our staff at the theatre went under a management change three years ago. The General Manager for all intents and purposes, went through great lengths to get rid of or force our last General Manger's employees to quit or terminate them.
When it came to me and another employee we had been there for seven years. It made it increasingly difficult for her to attempt to fire us, cut our hours, or find any dirt on us given our lengthy employment status. The last time I had nuclear heat, if you will, resulted in her threatening to fire me because I had my cell phone playing music in the box office. The ironic nature of it is the employees she's hired are on tablets, cell phones, and not doing their jobs right in front of her very eyes. Because I am not her "employee" she tries to throw policies and procedures in my face any chance she gets.
Another incident involved her threatening to "fire me" because my ex girlfriend came up there to talk to me. My ex came by to say hi and ask if I was coming over to her apartment later on, it was during an very dead period, and no customers weren't around so I was like "Okay, sounds good." The GM stared my ex down and I mean STARED her down, to the point to where my ex said "Why is she staring at me?" lol

I mentioned it here how I HATED my job back in 2011 - the majority of the office belonged to one paricular race , & they all looked out for each other - the small miniority of us who werent from that backround were treated poorly . My manager was a total and complete POS - I mean this was the rudest. , most un professional person I had ever met . I was hired to do a job - 50% of which I was well familiar with the other 50% was foreign to me . This was made totally clear on the interview , yet on the second day I was being shouted at for not knowing terminology . Then she asks me to do a task , using a different term then Im used to , she questioned my ability to speak english , I got angry and shouted back at her -saying how dare you a non native english speaker question me , when in fact you are diffucult to understand
. She would assign a task , then come back 10 mins later and say thats not what I told you to do , I had been summoned for jury duty - cleared my day off with HR dept , yet Im being told I no showed work. You could almost feel the tension between me an her when I walked in , I was told by the other person in the dept - that she did not like me , & I should probably asked to be moved in a different dept. I eventually got hooked up by a friend to a new job , and quit telling her off big time ,

Another heated exchange with my general manager. One Sunday morning a customer was adamant that I gave him wrong change, needless to say I served others before him and couldn't remember if I gave him the correct change. Just to be safe I called one of the assistant managers to count my register down. He counted it down twice with him stating I was even. The customer was very nice about it and apologized for the misunderstanding. A couple of seconds later the assistant manager says "She wants you to put your phone in the car and she's watching you on cameras." I respond "What do you mean by watching me on cameras?" He specified "She's just watching you." Basically what he described was she blew up the camera footage, in such a fashion that it was just me on the screen. I said "Is she still watching me?" and he said "Yes." I was annoyed, irritated, and not feeling well anyways so I said "I'll give her a show if she wants!". I put my phone in the car and proceed to go back into the box office. The assistant manager stooged to her what I said and she attempted to suspend me for the week. Walking into the office I ask her what her problem is and she said "Your attitude sucks and what's this with you telling him you'll give me a show? If you're going to behave like that YOU CAN TAKE YOUR ASS HOME!" My temper almost exploded in the office, however, after collecting my thoughts I just smirked at her and said "What's your problem? You single me out and you act like you have a problem. I want to know what your issue is with me!" She proceeded to explain about how she's felt I've been disrespectful, rude, arrogant, and how I've never treated her like she was a person. Come to think of it, she acted more like a jealous vindinctive woman than an actual manager on that day. In the end I didn't get suspended and kept my hours. Go figure.

Before I left, I always kinda felt like I had heat at work. I thought I did my job pretty damn well, but it was always the extra things that I'd f*** up. I'd get it done, but there'd always be one or two things that I didn't do and then I get treated as if I failed completely. It was my first job and all, but still.

Ya know, I am just posting right now because this thread is right on top of the French tragedy thread, and it made me kind of unsettled to see those topics stacked.
