Work Bytes

Most of our site deals with getting ahead at both work and play. Work Bytes is all about getting it off your chest and getting even. Does your job suck? Stiffed on that promotion? Supervisor a ____head? Fellow employee annoying?

Here's where you can let it all out without having to go "postal"! Watch the bad language. Bee "creative". Have fun. Let friends "in the know" know about your postings. All names will be changed to protect the innocent (and you!). 

We want to hear your stories:  workbytes@careerbuzz.com

My project leader is a total ass! Keeps giving me all the boring, repetitive crap! Thinks I'm not ready for the good stuff. If he keeps it up, I'm going to place a virus into our billing system and bring the whole operation down for at least two days! (Jon/Atlanta)

Been with my company over a year now. Still getting made to pick up lunch for the "sales management team"…a bunch of lazy, over-paid jerks who think they are the only important people on Earth. Daily, I wish that they would choke on the lunch I have to go out and get. I think I'm the only one who knows the Heimlich maneuver. We'll see who the most important person on Earth is when they start choking! (Carrie/Chicago)

MY BOSS SUCKS! (careerbuzz's most frequent submission to date!)

I WANT MY BOSS TO DIE! (our second most common)

Anybody have any truly creative ways of getting another employee to quit? Please post them here. I have THE MOST annoying person in my accounts receivable department who must have taken one of the stupid EST or LIFESPRING courses. She looks you straight in the eye with one of those "Stepford Wives" stares. I just want to punch her in the face!! If she says, "Have a nice day" one more time, I'm going to explode. Please help me! (Kelly/St. Louis)

I work with a bunch of slobs! They don’t clean up after themselves! I'm not going to do it for them anymore!! (Heather/Minneapolis) (Go Heather!)

The Post Office has it right. Someone pisses you off big time? Go in and blow their bleeping head off! (Paul/Atlanta)

I work with the laziest piece of crap ever born! Problem is he was born into the owner's family! No pressure on him....only me and the others. (Stephen/Miami)

I work in New York City and get charged a City Tax! It sucks! Do other cities do this? (Cindy/Manhattan)

My company (blank) has a dress code. The old farts running the show think that will make us work harder. Some of my blue jeans cost more then their crappy old suits! (Jen/Chicago)

Hey, one of my bosses just died last month. No one from the office went to the funeral! (Zabrina/Cleveland)
