Stupid Mutha**&#(#*&

So I've been at this gig for a minute-coming up on a year-being a permalancer here and it never ceases to amaze me how stupid people in management positions are. When I first got here a year ago there was a young lady who worked with me, who was a bit of a drag to others in the department- she didn't want to do much and claimed that certain tasks were not her "fuckin' job" as she so eloquently stated at least 100 times.

Her boss, who I'm freelancing for asked her a few times to burn a few cds and dvds- to which she replied, "my computer doesn't have a burner"... I often found this to be odd since I have the same computer at home and I have a burner. Not to mention it's a 2008 imac- the chances of that not having a CD burner are about the same as it not coming with a mouse! 

So fast forward about 7 months later to today, the eloquent speaker had been fired earlier and her replacement is now using the computer. I'm in a meeting with the boss and he asks, "does that other computer have a burner? or is your computer the only one that has a burner?" I tilt my head, surely you jest, a year later and you still haven't checked to see if the shit has a burner!? Not to mention how are you a creative director with a mac at home and claim to be knowledgeable about technology and NOT know that  OF COURSE the computer can burn?!?!?  So after tilting my head and my hand on my hips like a mother who's about to open up a can of whoop ass on a child, I say, "you've been asking that question for a year, I'm 100% positive that computer has a burner." He says, "well the previous girl told me she couldn't burn, but maybe she just didn't want to do the work", I reply "that sounds more likely to be the case than a 2008 imac not having a burner". I leave his office and go to the woman who's working on said computer and I say "Do me a favor, take this blank CD and burn something on there", she obliges me and burns a CD. Right on queue the Dingle Dick Director walks in and I say "you can burn on that computer, she just burned a CD to prove it", he says "Unbelievable! Un- Be-Liev-A- Ble! that's a good thing".... then says "thanks" and walks out.... 

I said to the other girl, what's "Unbelievable" is that for a year his monkey ass sat up in this department and didn't even bother to check to see if the computer has burning capability... what's even more "unbelievable" is that you really took the word of a woman who you described as being lazy!

What's even more believable is that you can walk and chew gum at the same time- stupid mutha*&^#(@)(@
