Advice From Morons

Incredible. What does that tell me? It tells me that the person/moron I’m talking to has nothing else to say, how clever! That’s what I should do! Every time I argue with my boss and it inevitably ends in ‘get another job’ I’ll do just that… But wait; I’ve had a few jobs over the years and every one of my managers have all said this. Hm, maybe I’m not right for this working world? God I hope that’s the case. Anyways, moronic isn’t it. I get bored: get another job, I don’t want overtime: get another job, I kill my manager and string his organs up like Christmas lights: get another job. There’s no winning!

The next one I’m going to tell you about is more about regulations than actual advice, but by god it doesn’t make any sense. Not long ago I had the flu, it happens to us all, I took a couple of days off and recovered via the weekend. I strolled back into work with my nose clear and my joints no longer aching to find my HR manager waiting to tell me:

“The percentage of ’sick-days’ you’ve taken off is too high. You cannot take anymore time off.”

I know, nonsense right. I respect people do take days off and play hooky down by the lake, but I also respect people who are diagnosed with Ebola (hopefully this hasn’t happened in Britain… or the world) who actually need to lie down and rest for day. (With Ebola you might need two.) 
Do you want to know what I said to this intellectual? I said,
“If I am ill, I will be taking the day off.” The confusion in the ape-like woman whom I was talking to filled my heart with rage. Could she really not understand? Probably not as these people are about as susceptible to getting advice as they are giving it out.

Well I have ran out of nonsense that is my working life for now, maybe because I’m tired, or maybe because I’m so frustrated I’m about one step away from taking a butchers knife out and hunting these people down!
