listen; when someone says "i am tired of not being treated like an adult" then chances are, youre not acting like an adult. anothier indicator is throwing a hissy fit becuase youre not being treated like an adult as opposed to taking responsibility or otherwise fixing whatever aspect of you is not acting like an adult to spawn your treatment.

this comes up because there is someone in my office, named X, who was whining about it today. the problem is hes a 12 year old trapped in a 20 year olds body. which im the same way, but not when it comes to work. if a 12 year old could gather the info i do and produce the highly acclaimed reports i do, then that 12 year old should get a goddamned medal. but X is a guy who is big on the idea of entertaining himself and hoping everything is done for him. obviously im no fun godzilla, we all know i love to have a good time. but when theres a stack of stuff to do that the office is working together to do, its probably not the best time to look up dragon books online. grant it, its X's first time out on his own, and he's trying to enjoy his newly given freedoms, but its painfully obvious because he doesnt take time to do things that need to be done, like cleaning, or accomplishing ANYTHING at work.

my main gripe is i have to do my work (which i have brought alot on myself because of the initiiative i showed immediately upon arriving, which im fine with) but i have to finish his as well. then at the end of some days, i have to sit in a meeting where chief gives all of us a speech about 'some people' not contributing. its one of those deals where its painfully obvious who hes talkin about and its not me. but i hate stopping work to hear about this asshole not doing any work. kinda defeats the purpose. and i know the reason, its so X isnt pointed out individually. but the last couple months chief just says, "X youre not doin anything" and he still doesnt realize theres a problem.

and X will get promoted as fast as anyone else just for lingering around. fuck that. ive stopped so many promotions back home at work because people just didnt quit and expected more money without workin for it. fuck that. when people stay late all the time, do 2 or 3 meets a day, do more reports in the first 2 days this week than X has done since august, and X simply 'shows up' he shouldnt get promoted. luckily my command isnt retarded so him getting promoted over me will never be an issue. it just doesnt make sense that he will automatically be promoted at some point.

but fuck all that. i still refrain from giving him shit (again it would be like making fun of a 12 year old, oh big man to make fun of a 12 year old) the irony is i think it offends him more because i make fun of EVERYONE. i will sit in chiefs office and insult him like hes my subordinate. but i will not make fun of X at all. its not worth it. i follow a much better plan. being the shit at what i do. and ive been fully ingaged in said plan. which is why my plan gets stopped to hear a spiel about being useless when we know who its directed to and its stopping me from being useless. speaking of my excellence i bowled a 211 today.

i love you so much... and i think you're a fun godzilla ;) at least in the sack... i'm going to look so bad bowling against you, it's not fair... love you still and talk with you soon!!
