When your work day is like a corn maze....

When your work day is like a corn maze....


Never ending, full of outside irritants, and a stagnant corridor of hell.

Do you know what it's like help the stupidest person on earth do a somewhat challenging computer based learning course that REQUIRES you attention and listen what it's telling you do??

I do.... It's pure misery.

I called both his leader and his leader's leader tell them I was NOT going babysit this moron through his two hour training course.

Guess who ended having babysit...

I lose my patience after a while and I don't hide it. I don't actually really fucking give a care and want for people like that say something , but, they never do.

" the left, click where it says Food Safety Index"

"No, the left."

"Left."

"Opposite side of screen, LEFT."

"Food Safety Index"

"Read the words. Food Safety Index. You aren't even the left hand side of the screen. Does that say Food Safety Index?? It looks like a red X ."

Fucking MORON!

Twenty minutes later he showed back in my office.

"I'm done, but it won't print my certificate."

"Let take a look."

He was NOT done as two modules were left yet be completed.

"You aren't done, there aren't check marks by modules."

"It let print a certificate. See?!"

"You're name isn't this certific so, no, you aren't done. You have do modules before you can take the test. You can't just skip the test."

I wanted fucking kill the guy. He had proceeded argue with that he didn't feel he needed do the training as he was doing was stocking a shelf.

"What are you stocking the shelf with?"

"Food."

"So... You're working in a<b> food </font></b>department, stocking the shelf WITH food, but you don't see the necessity of doing the Food Safe Training??"

I ended telling the guy that the successful completion of his training was a requirement for his continued employment with our company. If he did not want do required training and he felt the protocols that were in place for our employees were unnecessary, he could work elsewhere. I went tell him that every employee feels this way about something within our job, not necessarily that specific training, but something, and we JUST DO IT because it's part of our job.

Thank God I've taken some vacation time and now have the next five days off....

You might be seeing my crazed photo on the 11 o'clock news, otherwise.

Happy Thursday!

    My computer skills aren't exactly great but I'm not quite as bad as the 'moron'
I think he was purposely acting stupid. Like, if I get frustrated enough, I'd just drop it and say to hell with it. Eventually he realized, I couldn't just let it go, this is something we get audited on.

    Corn 🌽 maze... It's been years and years since I've been in one.
    Damn, they are fun. Went when my kids were still young and had a blast! 👍 😊
Yikes, I've only been in one corn maze ever.... Was pretty sure I was going to die in there. It was hot, no breeze whatsoever, pollen and debris was sticking to me, making me itch, and we couldn't find out way out. Sheer hell.

    I'd be thinking of zapping him with a cattle prod every time he argued or didn't follow instructions. I bet he'd find LEFT very quickly with that type of incentive! lol Yeah, but that kind of "encouragement" is probably illegal. *sigh*
I like your thought process, and could totally get behind the idea... Lol. But, I have a feeling it would be crowned upon by my superiors.

    Sounds like a horror show, and a prat of a guy! I wonder how long he'll last with an attitude like that......

    Believe it or not, if you'd said to an employee over here that if you feel that 'the protocols that were in place for our employees were unnecessary....(you can)....work elsewhere', the employee would be entitled to sue you under our Employment legislation for unfair or constructive dismissal, with a maximum award of up to £75000 ($95000) if the claim was successful. Absolutely ridiculous.

    Hope you enjoy your time off. You, kitty and the spawn.......hmmm......you'll be going back to work for a rest!!
Holy crap. That's terrible.... Here, it's called insubordination and could be termable. Obviously we don't just fire on the spot, but refusal to do required training by the Department of Agriculture could cause an escalation to the powers that be as it could result in hefty fines for the company.

    Corporate sent us some temps to disinfect the building and I've been given the job of babysitter. There's one that constantly wants to do other jobs besides disinfecting and always walks into the middle of conversations and just blurts out ridiculous comments that interrupt us. I'm ready to clock that one.
I work with a few people like that too. We usually try to be nice.... But after a while, we just stop talking and stare until they get uncomfortable and walk away.
