I spent three days helping a coworker by building a custom report for them.
Zero complaints about the work. Got it done on time.
They bitched because I cc’d another stakeholder, involved in the project, who already knew the work was happening… like…WTF?
DON’T BE SOMEONE WHO COMPLAINS TO A PERSON’S BOSS ABOUT PETTY MEANINGLESS SHIT WHEN THEY JUST HELPED YOU.
ALSO DON’T BE SOMEONE WHO SILOS INFORMATION SO YOU CAN PRETEND OTHER PEOPLE’S WORK WAS YOUR OWN.
Motherfuckers.
I have a person at work that I HAVE to help with some jobs. They did this to me on a big job so now I will only guide them, I never help.
People like this will wash themselves out over time.
I make them ask me for everything. They don’t like to do that so I get to watch a lot of bad decisions. I also turn every question about any our projects right to them so they get to show everyone how much they know. They have been pulled off of a few jobs. Their time is limited. Lol.
Nice!
And see, if they had appreciated your help, you’d have made it part of your job to help them succeed.
That, right there, IS the truth.
