Good Help Is Hard To Find

Wednesday, January 24, 2007
I'm a liberal, a grad student, an office peon. I get it, I know oppressed. But when somebody agrees to a contract in which he agrees to work 40 hours a week, takes the data he's supposed to code, and then disappears......well that just pisses me off. This guy did some work the first day, no problem. Then he kept "forgetting" to email his daily results. Then he stopped responding to my email and phone calls. Then he refused to respond to my boss's email and phone calls. So as far as I know, he's gone and he's not coming back.

Guess who's going to end up doing all of his work?

  • wait, so this dude just came in and stole a bunch of data? You think he was some sort of spy?!?

    Dude, you're living a james bond movie without the explosions and fancy gadgets,

  • Just remember that the only reason why some peoplw are still alive is because it is illegal to shot them...unless you are duck hunting with Dick Cheney!

  • Ouch -- don't you kind of hope he was abducted by South Park-style aliens who will be inserting a probe.... or maybe he actually DID fall off the planet. Chances are that he got arrested or didn't pay his bill in some way.

  • Hey we know he's alive. Somebody saw him in class 2 days ago!

    Unless he's been replaced by a cyborg or something.....
