being a cocksucker at work

When your at your break in the company lunchroom, do you suffer the consequences of, say, reading a book whilst the others are clucking inanities like mad grannies?

Damn right!

...

The reason I bring this up : a French court just sided with the worker who was dismissed from the job for not conforming to the company's required false sunny high-glee.


I remember a lifetime ago wanting to get the best deal on a ghetto blaster (for work use) and going to the big name Japanese audio store parking lot 8 am in the morning to be sure to be first one in at the sale.
Management had dragged all the employees out, in their monkey suits, in dead-of-winter cold, to line up and sing the company propaganda song whilst jumping up and down like chickens on a hot plate.

I was somehow reminded of a scene from Bridge Over The River Quai ...er Wotsit.

I once had a new role and the boss said to me that socialising outside work was part of the job because it built relationships. I told her the only reason I suffered being around her and the others was because I was being paid. I was not and would never be their “friend”. Why on earth would anyone want to spend any more time than is absolutely necessary with work contacts? It beggars belief.

I’ve also flatly refused to take part in any team-building shite, every time it comes up. The last one was a beach clean up, which isn’t a worthless exercise: Just not one is want to do alongside a bunch up dip-shits whom I’d never even acknowledge exist unless I was being paid to do so.

People I work with still seem to clamour for social meet-ups that involve overnight stays because they are spread across the UK. Can you imagine risking Covid just so you can see someone in person and have a meal or drink afterwards? FFS we spend all day on computers in virtual meetings and the silly twats never turn their cameras on!
