What were some situations wherein you found out someone regretted having worked with you or for you?


  In my case, I call to mind my short tenure at the mayonnaise factory: personally, I was quite happy with my accomplishments over those three days, but everyone else saw it differently when things did not go in their favor AT ALL! (Who knew that “corporate sabotage” is codified as a criminal offense in some jurisdictions? Grrrrrr.)

      “Someone” attached a sieve-making apparatus to the end of the assembly line where that takes the recently-filled jars toward the final packing station just prior to them being loaded into cardboard boxes. About a third of the mayonnaise oozed out of the jars while still in the factory, another third during shipment, yet because the product was no longer sealed, the remainder of the vile goo simply rotted and became rancid.

    Well, that would do it for sure, silly goose.

    I suppose you chocked it up to a workplace "accident?"  Thank God you didn't work in a condom factory.

    Another restraining order in effect?

      Shoddy workmanship is more like it.
      I think the entire staff inwardly suffered from soul-shattering guilt for being involved in making the horrid concoction of mayonnaise available for consumption, so “whomever” rigged up that clever device did them all a solid and gave them a way out. Sainthood is probably being contemplated even as we speak.
