my worst most irritating and useless coworker

is a guy thats never on time... and when he does wander in 5 to 10 minutes late hes stoned off his tits... he then spends most of his workday chatting to people about how much of a bad ass he was before he decided to get a real job and be more responsible..or just trying to get a rise out of people instead of working

how hes not been fired yet is beyond me

anyhoo a week and a bit ago he had a baby (well his girlfriend did...) congrats to them

yesterday was his first day back at work after a week of fresh baby leave

he turned up on time... and sober (or at least not in a cloud of haze wich is good enough for me) O.o... i was shocked... hes even reigned in his shit talking some... now hes irritating coz he wont stop chatting about the baby...but i guess thats normal

today... he turned up on time and sober again.... who is this guy?

do fresh babys give off some kind of instant adult vitamins or something?

anyhoo... he dropped something sharp n heavy and tried to catch it and had to be dropped off at the hospital to get stiched back together

guess i wont be seeing him for another week orso

awwww.... i was just starting to consider thinking about maybe not disliking the guy so much

DISCUSSION (34)

Sounds like the realization of being responsible for the health and well being of another human being was a real wake up call. Good for him. Too many irresponsible parents never come to that realization.

I keep telling my kids that a dropped knife doesn’t have a handle.

i was pleasantly surprised

i doubt he’ll ever stop being irritating to me... but at least it looks like hes planning to do right by the kid

H e’s a dad now, gotta start being responsible and shit

For like, a month, probably. Then he’ll be back to his normal tricks.

Maybe his mother-in-law moved in to help with the baby, and he’s been on lockdown.

Beware when she goes home after Labor Day weekend, and he goes on a bender.

potentially...but i guess till he is back to his normal tricks ill give him the benefit of the doubt

especially when hes at home with a bandaged hand and not irritating me at work

Now he'll just annoy you with every new AMAZING thing his kid just did. As if it was the first kid to ever do anything in the history of ever.

him needing another week orso off work to heal and as such not irritating me at work?

or him appearing to take dadding seriously?

oh wait...you meant both of course...silly me :)

Hopefully, you’re right

farscythe - makin da cawfee! > benn454
08/20/2019 at 15:19

yup.... but thats still an improvement

the stories about his kid will probably be mostly true

i have my doubts about all his stories about all the things he did before

Easy: Girlfriend is smoking and drinking it all now. She needs it more.

At least t hat’s a healthy, wholesome kind of annoying —you might not want to be friends outside of work but it’s hard to be mad at somebody for being an enthusiastic parent.

possibly...i dont think she stopped during the pregnancy either

but... well not my place to judge

The urge to catch it is hard to overcome.

Hopefully he’ll keep his shit pulled together, now that he’s got a kid to take care of.

Girlfriend told him to get his shit together or else, now that he has a child.

Or, I like to imagine the better scenario that having that little bundle in his arms transformed him. Sometimes having a kid makes people want to rise to the occasion and be deserving of the privilege/responsibility.

Hope it sticks.

I guess when you don’t do much work, you don’t know how to work without hurting yourself.

Having a kid will certainly change your outlook. For some people it only works for a month to a year, others can keep it going longer. Hopefully for everyone's sake, this guy will be in the latter camp.

*takes notes*

dont let opposaurus hold the baby

08/20/2019 at 15:47

heres to hoping... he sure seems happy about it for now...so thats a good start i guess

08/20/2019 at 15:50

considering hes been running around to any and all who might be interested..and some who arent to show off babypics and stuff.... i think it might be the latter option

but yeah heres to hoping
