IMHO, once an a-hole, always an a-hole!! Personally, I think it’s great what Retro did. Serves Deeki right!



As the saying goes, for evil to succeed, all the good guys have to do is nothing.

I'll believe you... millions would not though.

Bud, setting a colleague up to fail does not aid the business/employer one little bit.

If the first third of the three stooges learned to use the camera... "properly"
as you would have it... it was certainly not because he was set up.


I don't believe all of it myself LOL.
It's just a story told to me by a friend and sometimes peoples point of view are distorted by their emotions.
But this much i can vow for, the first guy did not learn to properly use a camera by being an arrogant a-hole.

In fact it can only cost the employer... so I see them both as a liability... two thirds of the Three Stooges.


I agree. Sabotage is more an act of revenge rather than an effective way to teach lessons or increase productivity. Sabotaging each other's work is not a good way to run a business!

Can't have only one person do it all the time and get all the fun could we?
Sometimes the best thing to do is return the favor since killing bad guys is still a crime. LOL

I worked with an a-hole quite a few years ago. He would go out of his way to "accidentally bump" into me with his shoulder. I overlooked for a few times figuring if I said nothing he would tire of trying to get a response from me. He kept at it. Finally one time he did it with several other employees present and I simply turned, looked him straight in the eye and lordly enough for everyone to hear me, asked, "Am I in your way?" Apparently it embarrassed him as he never did it again.

That dog S__ trick is a nice mental image for some of the Lazy people who leave their dog s__ in my (and others) yards. Anyway...

Here is a fun one that is (mostly) harmless. If your buddy leaves his computer and doesn’t lock it, take a screen capture of the screen. Then close all apps and replace the wallpaper with the screen shot and wait for the fun to begin.

I've seen that one he he.
Another one that was really funny was when somebody swapped wireless mouse dongles during lunchbreak. Crumpled papers started flying afterwards...

Debatable point... Capital punishment, also known as the death penalty, is a government-sanctioned practice whereby a person is put to death by the state as a punishment for a crime... which is
of course legal and "killing bad guys"... except when the innocent are found guilty of course.
Here in Victoria Australia that's a regular occurrence... (the innocent are found guilty)

We have lots and lots of Kangaroos here; and that makes me think that the term
"Kangaroo Court" was founded here in Victoria.

Fortunately(?); the last time a man (Ronald Ryan) was "legally" executed
here was for supposedly shooting a prison guard in 1965.

Evidently, there is a probability
that the prison guard was accidentally shot by another prison guard while Ryan was escaping prison...
which of course made Ryan a very convenient scapegoat... If that is true the state of
Victoria murdered Ryan... The administration of this state is more
an organized crime syndicate than a government, so also of course
those that hanged Ryan have never been taken to task over the matter.

Not that is an interesting piece of politics and history.
