(lights a cigarette, puff)...You know it's funny that this particular topic surfaced today because I had an incident happen at work today that really pisses me off and it's been a continuing problem for almost two years that I've been at my job. I had my lunch stolen from me today from the fridge and it's not the first time, in fact, this is the fourth time that's it's happened and needless to say, I was pretty hot about it. Unfortunately, I'm not the only one that has had their food or property, i.e., money, stolen from them and it's been brought to the attention of our supervisors that someone has been stealing. What truly annoys me is that I feel that our supervisors have taken a "wishy-washy" stance about it and although they may send an e-mail throughout the office, it hasn't done anything to stop this person or people involved. Naturally, that would piss off just about anyone, ENFJ or otherwise, but I can sense that my supervisors may think I'm being "hard assed" about it, but c'mon! When patterns of behavior begin to immerge over a period of time and they're consistent, what else am I left to say?! Ohh, umm, gee, it was an accident?!! UGH!!
Naturally, I talked to my supervisor and explained to her that although it may have "only" been food that was stolen from me, it's the principle that someone stole; someone took something that did not belong to them and regardless if it was food or money, the very act that was committed is the same and should be handled appropriately. Of course, she tries to explain that there isn't much they can do, blah, blah, blah, ad nauseum. But damn it, people!!! I don't steal from others and although I don't think someone should be fired outright, a reprimand or warning should be addressed and not some bullshit, candy assed request to "please be mindful of other's property and put your name on it, etc" WTF good does that accomplish?!! It's been going on for two years, it's not accidental as to what my supervisor tries to imply, someone is stealing food and lately, it's progressed to stealing other people's money!!! The only thing I could do was file an "Incident Report" with our security guards but they told me they've had numerous complaints from our section for the same thing: theft.
So, if there is something (among other things) that pisses me off is a "wishy washy" attitude or condescending remarks or just simply that "hands in the air" mannerism that seems to be pervasive in society. Mind you, I try very hard to be diplomatic and understanding, I don't believe in accusing someone who may be innocent, but damn it to hell, take a friggin stand and make an executive decision!!! There is a continous problem in the office that hasn't stopped so do something about it!!! Ok, I'm off to bed, just had to throw that one out there, grumble, grumble, people suck, grumble, grumble, I hope whoever ate my food gets diarrhea, grumble, grumble...:angry:
