Hey there folks! Today I'd like to blab about something different. Not books, not blogs, but corporate job! Yeah, how serious can it sound? Right. Some of you may have known that I have a Monday - Friday day job that helps me feed myself and my family. So, before your proceed, I'd like to give you a warranty that these info, ladies and gentlemen, are accurate. Don't believe me? Oh, you better do! I act like a know it all on the previous How to Suck posts, but this time, I do know about it all *evil grins*
First and foremost, this post is inspired by reality. I may dramatize things a bit just for the heck of it, but it's solely just to deliver you the points. It has been 10 years since I started working, so I can say that I've witnessed enough. If you believe it's time for you to show what a bad-ass you are at work, you better trust me in this. I know what I am talking about, so let's start!
Show up late at work and act like nothing happens
It's the most fun of them all, really! Why come early if you can come one hour late. Oh, of course you'll get the mean look from everybody, but what harm can it does? They're not going to punch you or anything. If your boss ask what's up, just shrug and tell him/her that you got flat tire, or your cat's sick, anything. Problem solved!
Be grumpy when doing tasks
Yeah, as if you do your task after all. Snoring in the corner of the room is so much more fun. Be mean when you are working and act like you're the hardest worker there. Ah, while you're at it, don't forget to bark that you need a vacation, lots of it. Complain about being underpaid as well. Make them believe that your company owes you a ton. A bad-ass doesn't afraid to speak the truth. If it's not the truth, make it sounds like one.
Bad mouth your co-worker
...especially the one that's being loved. Well, every workplace has this kind of person. A lovable, friendly and ahem, does his/her job well. The one that's seem perfect. The truth is, nobody's perfect and it's in your job description to open their eyes, for Heaven's sake! Show them his/her true color! Does she/he snort while eating or whether a horror movie scared the heck out of him/her, show them! Can't find anything? Made them up! You're a troll, aren't you, you sure can come up with something.
... if everything else fails, bad mouth your boss
Look, some people think the saying "doing something like a boss" is misleading. They're many bosses who are so so at their job or those who are just tad lazy. Of course you don't believe that nonsense! So when your boss assign various task on you, it's not because he/she would like to see your potential, but it's because he/she is lazy. If you consider yourself to be a workplace troll, you might as well tell him/her to do the task his/herself.
As usual, I'd like to end this post with a guarantee. If you do any of even better, all of these stuffs, you're going to get fired instantly or at least getting a fatal penalty. Have I come across people who do these? Oh yes, I sure have and to tell you the truth, they're annoying as hell. If you fee like annoying the entire office, be sure to put yourself into the badass mode and you won't work there long.
Now, let's talk about you! Are there slackers at your workplace? How do you feel about them? Do you consider yourself to be a bad-ass at work?
