I get into work this morning to see I have a phone message. Thinking it might be from my boss or supervisor I check it straight away.

Anything important? A message about some work they need me to do?

No.

It was from my annoying work "colleague" (and I use that word in the loosest sense) informing me that it is 4am and he's up nursing his girlfriend's friend who is sick at their house and so he will be a hour or two late for work.

Well fuck me, thanks for telling me...I don't know what I'd do without that information!

I am NOT your boss. I'm NOT doing the same piece of work as you. We are NOT a team. I DON'T CARE! CALL SOMEONE WHO DOES!!!!

Evil or Very Mad

Tosser.

(eventually I'l crack and type a long rant about this guy.........but I feel I may have obtained a male stalker...... Confused

)

I want my own stalker, just so I can freak them out and start stalking them.

I wouldn't mind so much if it was a female. But believe me it wears you down after a while.

In my circumstance it's a case of he likes me more than I like him, and not in a gay way (I don't think so anyway) He's even copying my haircut and stufff....god knows why.... Confused

I think he sort of idolizes me and it freaks me out. Plus he's just not a very nice fella anyway.

Frustrating.

Anyway, he called me later and told me he's not showing up at all today, so I get a day off from being followed around.

Why he chooses to call me and not the boss I don't know. Twat. Confused

You're flattered really, admit it.

what do you do for a living. he sounds slightly crazy but maybe he just thinks he's clever and manipulative and doesnt know you see through it?

I'm a scientist... so it's lab work. The boss has even had a go at him about his timekeeping but the message doesn't seem to get through.

I don't know. I can't get the measure of him. He seems to want to be me but he's paranoid as well (he gets stoned EVERY night without fail. And he's told me about two dozen times that "once I smoke what I've got in the house now then that's it..I'm giving it up"...yeah right!!!)

It just pisses me off. I mention in passing conversation that I play the guitar and the next day he comes to me and announces his plans to build his own guitar and is constantly bugging me asking me stuff like "do you think I should go for the birdseye maple neck or a rosewood"...You know what mate? I don't give a shit. He never did build a guitar. I think I managed to shut him up about that when he had worn me down so much that I agreed to go with him to the local guitar shop on our lunch break. When we got there I picked up a few guitars and played a few nice little riffs and some fingerpicking stuff and that seemed to intimidate him a bit. Razz

Recentley I innocentley mentioned the game Subbutteo in conversation and even stated that I hated playing the game. Now he's banging on about buying Subbutteo teams on ebay..painting his own players and building his own Subbutteo stadium..asking me which pitch he should buy and all of that shit...sending me links with pictures of other peoples stadiums on. Constantly on about it. It's plain to see that I couldn't give a flying fuck! He'll probably never do that either.

He's incapable of going to the cafeteria on his own. And if I dare to go down there without him...just to get a drink of water or something..more often than not he'll be at my desk waiting for me when I get back saying "well you never told me you were going down there!"...And then he'll drag me straight back down there with him so he can get a drink too...even though I've only just come back from there! (Believe me it's easier to just shut up and go with him rather than try and make an excuse not to...cos he'll just stand there yabbering on until you lose the will to live otherwise!)

Jesus.....I didn't mean to type that much...but it's been cathartic!

He does sound like a complete tosser.

Oh for fucks sake!

Another phonecall this morning from him at his desk...

Me : "Hello"
Him : "Dude, my TV is busted"
Me : "Oh"
Him : "Yeah....it's the lightbox...blah...blah....need a part...the part costs about 300 bucks...blah blah...called Samsung...blah blah... warranty.....blah blah...delivery....service call....blah blah.......(and on and on for about 3 minutes without a pause)..."
Me : "oh... right"
Him : "anyway where were you earlier"
Me : "When?"
Him : "About 20 mins ago"
Me : "Oh probably in the cafeteria"
Him : " I didn't see you in there"
Me : "Really? Well I was in there I had a coffee and a donut"
Him : "Were you sitting down?"
Me : "Yeah"
Him : "Oh...where do you sit when you go down there on the right or on the left?"
Me : "err....the right I think it was"
Him : "ahh...how far down on the right"
Me: "I dunno....about half way I suppose"
Him : "oh...later dude"

WTF?????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF?????????? Neutral

I've had many "friends" like that. Can't you offload him on someone else?

once a girl phoned me to ask why her printer was broken. that was annoying

You should be thankful that you're not/were an IT student, because if anybody knows that they'll always say "oh you might be able to help me out" and then they just assume you'll know what the fuck they're talking about. Like yesterday, my sister says "so yeah the recorder won't work" WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? It took me 10 minutes to work out that she meant software.
