Why can't I let go?
So, most of you know already that there's a manager from my past that still haunts me. He really was worse than Michael on The Office. He was an "Idea Guy". We would bring a problem to his attention, but he would choose to ignore it, at least until he could swoop in and "save the day".
When I couldn't take the crap from him anymore, I asked to be removed from his group (where I was working on video deliverables) and go back to the writing group. First, he gave me a horrible review, full of straight out lies. And second, he told my new project managers that they shouldn't give me anything even slightly challenging because I wouldn't be able to handle it.
Really he was just insulted that I didn't want to be in his group.
When I left his group, he decided to try his hand at creating (and starring in) the video projects, and in turn, proved my point that he had no clue about what he was doing. Here is the resulting video.
And if you're wowed by what you've seen, he's available as a voice talent.
But, I guess that he did do one thing that I appreciated. MM, thank you for making me hate working there so much that I moved to a different state. And now I work at a WAY awesome company with a great boss and a great future, where I get to document great products.
Ah, I guess that should be enough revenge for me, but still, I wonder, should I put it on YouTube?
Oh, I thought that this was really funny too:
This is real. Here's the link to the page it came from.

lol. Those were the days.
On a positive note, I'm so glad that you found a job you like. I can't imagine what one of those are. Remember when we worked at LNT? What were we thinking?! I love discounts though.
Hahahahahaha! That is hilarious! I had forgotten what the video was actually like. :)
I especially love this line - "And if you're wowed by what you've seen, he's available as a voice talent." HA!
OMG I so hope Erika and Kris see this. Too funny.
I love you loser emoicon too.
ROFL. Yes. Totally worse than Michael on The Office. On so many levels.
Thanks for the memories. I think. ;)
I blocked that out a while back...thanks for bringing it back ;-) I'm speechless.
