What annoys you the most about your job?

Question

genericname85 · Accepted Answer

my project management. like usually project management should be the most competent among the project employees. but our project leadership litterally does nothing, has no competence in the field and is basically barely coming after his administration duties, which is like 20% of his job.

the only reason he has the job is cause he went to school with the CEO. and it sucks, cause he constantly throws a wrench in the works of me and my collegues by shitty planning of unneccesary shit that takes our focus away from our actual job.

The fucking 50 year old men who act like 12 year old girls. Holy shit I wish I could freeze time and just kick all their teeth out. Go to fucking work do your job and shut the fuck up, why do grown ass men feel the need to start drama and try to get under peoples skin, these are construction workers too, you know the super tough hard guys who stand in the mud 12 hours a day doing manual labor, it’s shocking honestly, no one would believe it. Why can’t people go to work do their job and go home? Beats me, let’s make it fucking miserable that sounds like more fun. They’re all fucking sad, I don’t talk to any of them.

Maybe I'm lazy, maybe im not so bright, maybe in impostor syndrome. That said - it's work. Work is work has always been merrily me.🤡 The fact that it's work - I mean I'm a socialist whenever I vote for my choices in elections the socialist leaning or socialist candidates I often vote for - work to me is always "I only work to have money to pay for expenses or bills or desires, I don't work because I want to work, I work because I have to work" is my attitude lol - after all - I'd rather be Phil in Groundhog Day, man doesn't realise how he never has to be a weatherman again lol 😆😆😆😆 and that said, I don't mind work as such, yet it's always varies from job to job and I've held several jobs by now. Like i said, it pays for things, but, it's work. It's work, is work, is work. And yeah. 😃🥹

Also work with the public, in an area where many that come on are combative when then come in, and we have law enforcement personnel there periodically. That is difficult to deal with many times.

People who constantly show up late, mainly the girls w their cups of coffee everyday. Also they never set us up to be productive on 2nd shift. The whole unit knows who needs to be fired, but they’re of a particular color so it’s always the race card. No I’m not white either before someone throws out that I’m racist or something.

some of the idiots we have to deal with.
Nothing like a couple 2 3 dumbasses having a bar fight at 2am to end your sleep for a while.
I tend not to be very empathetic, but they still get the best care anywhere.

People trying to solicit free legal advice. I'm sorry that you're in the situation that you are and I only wish you the best of luck. Unfortunately, I can't afford to be giving out free legal advice.
