No shouty ones, but I had the misfortune of having one guy on the payroll for about a year who looked GREAT on paper, but after hiring him it turned out that his skillset pretty much consisted of making flow charts we didn't need and printing them out IN COLOR. After I sacked his suspender-wearing ass, I found REAMS of the shit in his desk.

I prefer "do-ers;" this guy was more of a "let's plan a meeting to plan the meeting where we can plan the meeting for defining the scope for the project. If that's unclear, I have a color chart that may help."

ARRGH.

After he quit, I found that he'd left his hemorrhoid ring pillow behind. The chair AND the pillow went into the dumpster.

I'm all for a good Schn3ll story, but is it too much to ask for a little continuity?

At that point, you gotta throw the desk, cubicle walls and all bathroom fixtures away as well.

Heh. He definitely didn't quit - but he did leave the ass gasket behind.

And saw this today. Typical example of California's millennial. Equally applicable to both genders.

GOD! I love that!

"I shouldn't have to slam on my brakes in the morning! All these cops and they don't say anything to the OLD guy walking out in traffic."

You just got to love that.

The one with the biggest cajones was the officer assigned to walk out in front of these idiots. He doesn't make enough money!

More entitle craziness...today from the East Coast.

I am in awe of the patience and restraint of the two cops. That woman has such a disgusting demeanor, I would have lost my cool by 1 minute mark.

About a minute in, it was apparent that she wasn't going to be able to intimidate these officers. She clearly is not that bright because it is evident she isn't going to get anywhere with them. But, typical politician - she thinks she's better than these young officers and that she is entitled to special treatment.
