Never met any of my coworkers. Its a small company and most of us work remote. Husband, wife, their four kids (mid-30s for the kids). Then we have a head admin, finance guy, underwriter and CEO that are probably early 50s - 60s.


You don't even have like a yearly get together, conference, anything?

Hard working Boomers and Gen-X

Worthless pieces of shite Millenials whining about something.


More like Boomers working harder than they should because they are either incapable or unwilling to innovate.

Their staunch dedication to doing things the "way they've always been done" even in the face of a mountain of evidence showing how much more efficient and productive it could be done is rage inducing.

I've only been working here since April, so not sure. I'm sure they have something every now and then.

Kind of trusting on their part to hire someone they haven't met just based on a bunch of phone and skype interviews.

Two of us have our eyes on him and he doesn't know it. We share notes and it always ends up a hilarious discussion about the shite he pulls when there's free food in the building.



Do we work together?


There's an older dude I work with that sounds identical to your guy. I swear to God you could open a bag of chips on the first floor and this guy could hear it on the 4th. If there is food, that SOB is first in line EVERY damn time. The dude eats like a trash can and is overweight.

It's hard to embarrass me.... But he succeeded.


I've only been embarrassed by a coworker once. He was my division's merchant services rep. We were at a client's place of business trying to close a huge deal I'd been working on for a while. I bring the rep into the shop, and introduce him to the owner. The rep looks at the woman standing next to the owner and says "Oh, is this your mother?"

She was the owner's wife. We didn't close the deal.

About 10 years ago, I worked with a Vietnamese guy in his mid-40s. He would often bring Tupperware to work and quick to fill it up with leftovers from business lunches.

We had a teambuilding event once that included a crawfish boil, probably about 200 people from our office attended (local park that we rented out a Pavilion space). There was a kid's birthday party at a nearby Pavilion. He goes over to talk to them and somehow ends up coming back with two slices of cake and a customized shirt (i.e. Happy Birthday shirt for the random kid) to give to his daughter.

White men aged early 20s to mid 60s

Of course the age and years of service has them as higher levels

The only women are the admins
They don’t count. All they do is schedule shite for us
