You know, I realize there are lots of unfavorable people out in the world, but I'd like some second opinions on this.

I work for a grocery store, not a bad place and on the norm I happen to enjoy my job. It's simple enough work, I come in 3rd shift, throw my stock up, run my back stock and start work on the displays. Make about 45-50 hours a week workin 6 days, again, not a bad place to work.

My boss however, I hope dies a horrible friggin death that involves a giant fireball.

You see, my manager at times can generally act like a human being, at times. I mean, this guy now that I think about it, even though it is for a grocery store, is one of the most unprofessional guys I've ever had to work for.

If you're having a conversation with another co-worker, he hides behind shelves and products to eavesdrop on what you're saying. He even lies, at a constant rate, just to mess with you because he laughs at the reaction. He's been known to turn co-workers on each other because it amuses him.

You can have a totally normal relationship with him for awhile, then for whatever reason, he will become a giant ass. Workin at a good, fast pace and he'll still walk up, call you names and criticize you and he's been doin it nonstop on me.

Since our co-manager for grocery works during the daytime, he's convinced upper management that he has to be there at night, works (almost always) 7 days a week and most of the time, he just walks around chattin on a phone or talks to customers for well over an hour. Basically, he gets paid over sixteen dollars an hour to twiddle his friggin thumbs every night.

Now, I know what's poppin to some people's minds. Why not report him? There's a problem with that. I work for a union type job, meaning that everyone pays money out of their paycheck to 'not' be fired for a piddly little reason like some places do. He's also been there over twenty five years, the most that can happen is he'll get written up and get pissed.

God, the workplace sucks sometimes.
