May job is, what some may say, boringly annoying. I am a facilities manager at a large firm. My duties range from basically being a general contractor to dealing with pishky things like making sure the refrig is cleaned each month.
Anyway, today I had to replace some phone cords in a few of our conference rooms because they weren't long enough to reach the tables.
No biggy, right?
So the owner is letting me know of this and he is perplexed as to why they are so short to begin with. I was at a loss for an explanation, but I also didn't want to say, that people come into the conference room on the sly and swap out the cables for theirs instead of asking me for a new longer one.
Be that as it may.
So anyway, one of the sycophant VP's are in there and as my boss is telling me the issue, this troll pipes up and says I thought I told you about this before! A very obvious brown nose by anyone within 100 yards. I look at him dead pan and say, nope, never heard a thing from you, otherwise they would have been changed. I look at my boss and for a billionth of a second, he understood. It actually registered on his face that this moron VP was brown nosing. It was so painfully obvious that even he couldn't deny it. It actually penetrated the very well trained blank business expression he wears all day long. I felt mildly vindicated.
It still never ceased to amaze me why on earth does this fool VP needs to be such a suck up.
Perhaps he's just a completely inapt fool, naaaa couldn't be that. naaaaaa
