About As Useful As Some Passed Gas
(We have one coworker at the theater who is a deadweight. He always comes in late and does very little work. I’m in the lobby when I notice one of the auditoriums is letting out.)
Me: *to the manager* “Hey, I’m going to go clean the auditorium.”
Manager: “Okay, then. Hey, [Coworker]! You go in and help him.
Me: *under my breath* “G**d*** it!”
(We both go into the auditorium, and instead of picking up trash or sweeping, my coworker just follows me around making farting noises.)
Coworker: *makes a farting sound* “Ew, [My Name]! You’re nasty.”
Me: “Really? You’re doing this? How old are you? Twenty or ten?”
Coworker: “What are you talking about? I’m not doing anything.” *makes another farting sound* “Dude! What did you eat?”
Me: *sigh*
(This goes on the entire time. I finally get done with the auditorium, and then I go up to the manager.)
Me: “The next time you want to send [Coworker] to help me clean auditoriums, please do me a favor and don’t.”
(He eventually left to work at a grocery store around the corner. I heard he only lasted a couple of months.)
