This just in (long rant)
There's a small company in my building I shall call "Braindead". Most of the people there are really nice and don't give me any headaches. I even got a Christmas present from them, yay!
The Boss-Lady (BL) and her husband, the evil, sucky CEO (ESCEO), however, aren't that nice. BL is very dim, she loses her belongings constantly and couldn't understand why I was calling her when I found out that it was her car that had its alarm on. "Oh, it's must because I left my dog in the car and it's in panic". Lady, you left your dog in the car, in a dark garage, knowing that he doesn't like it?
ESCEO is a bitter old fart that apparently thinks yelling is the only way to communicate and making (female) employees cry makes him, well, a man. I have succesfully avoided his tantrums (I've only encoutered some mild and amusing ones), but today, right after having my lunch, I saw him standing by my desk, and he didn't look too happy (actually, he never does).
The thing he wanted to bitch about is trivial, and I won't go to the details. Let's just say it's a thing that's been around for ages and everyone should know about it by now. He also exeggerated the whole thing by making it a question of life and death (which it isn't). I was polite and explained the whole thing nicely without any attitude, but my explanations didn't satisfy his Asshatness. Oh no, what he said...
"I understand that you don't have to be very smart to do that job of yours, but..."
After that, I just didn't care any more. As he threatened to contact my supervisors (apparently, it was my attitude that was the problem) I was like, please suit yourself. He then left, bitching all the way.
Gladly, my collague heard the whole thing, so I have a witness in case ESCEO wants to complain about me. I also told about this to the facility manager (who's my boss in this building), if ESCEO happened to call her about the same (still, trivial) thing. She was great. I told her what he haid saids to me and she was all "Oh no he didn't" . She also said not-so-flattering things about ESCEO and stated that BL is "a f-ing idiot". Made feel much better.
I still get creeps when I think of him saying that "I understand..." thing with that patronizing tone, but part of me wishes he would call my supervisor and tell her what she thinks of our job.
