“30 seconds”. You should have told him 6 hours. If he needs it done quicker hire someone else. Enjoy your day.



He wasn't able to successfully pull this stunt ever again. It actually completely changed our work dynamic and almost completely eliminated job stress. It was also the catalyst to deciding that I wanted to move on and I gave a 4 month notice shortly thereafter. Ultimate jerk move, he actually hid a bonus check intended for me in his desk for weeks because he didn't realize I was being so nice with the amount of notice. He thought he could prevent me from getting it entirely. That did not go over well with the president of the company.


So, theft and fraud eh? Sounds like a lot more than a "jerk".

Hopefully, the president canned him and referee his conduct to the police? Seriously, the less poisonous people like that, the better.
