A salesperson I have to work with wants to transition his book to his 25 year old son. They’ve given him the job title that would be my 3 year goal in a different organization and because they were stupid enough to connect his personal email to salesforce, I know he is getting paid ~$200,000 a year.
If he wasn’t arrogant, he would be charmingly clumsy. But he is arrogant as shit. I’ve mentally nicknamed him “Don, Jr.” because his mannerisms are similar. He forgets basic tasks for week at a time and then wants me to hurry to correct what I can’t correct. He calls at random times in the middle of my highly technical job and disrupts it to ask about things like the fax number that is in his own e-mail signature. The other day I was trying to work on site and he gets in a never ending diatribe with someone about how much better America would be if everyone was as “brave” as Elon Musk is in making people work on site and how Elon is his hero. Other popular topics near my head include how we should have an NFT.
The other day I just about lost it, though. Someone hasn’t returned something in a while and I have months of notes on it and he asks if I’m sitting on it. Yeah, I’m just sitting on it, bro. That’s all I do all day too, twiddle my thumbs and speculate on NFTs and Elon. You can tell by the fact I never get up when I’m in person.
