Did you ever notice how you can't be nice to people? HUHHH? Have you???

I was being nice and told this one manager I would help him mail out some of the stuff he has thats backed up. Now this dude thinks I'm going to be doing this stuff for the rest of my work career. :/ After this batch that I have on my desk I am doing nothing else for him. I am sorry to be a beeotch but sometimes thats all people understand. :/

I "baby" them by fixing things for them, like their forms when they want to reschedule disability exams and their record request letters and the actual cases when they leave our office, etc. My supervisor has told me more than once that I have to stop doing this because they come to expect it. It's just so hard because I like to help people.; ▶ Reply to This

I stopped helping people, because when i needed someone to help me, no one was there. And call me selfish, but i thought 'fuck it'.
Why should I help someone who doesn't give two craps about me; ▶ Reply to This

I have a friend who because he decided not to get his license, needs rides to class. so I said yeah sure. problem...he's not helping out with gas:( he doesn't have a job either.; ▶ Reply to This

I have learnt to be a b.i.t.c.h....;-)..and sometimes i like it....:D; ▶ Reply to This
