 | Working with dumbasses

| Just recently I got my car back from the body shop. I had been without it for a week. Just shortly after Thanksgiving, it was backed into by a truck with a trailer hitch still attached. Being it was a close relative (about as close as a relative as there can be) I really couldn't get to upset about it & even offered to wait until after the new year to take it in to be repaired. But no, she said it was too nice of a car to have it look like a 'hillbilly car'--with a big ol' dent in the drivers side door.
Anyway after a week & a lot of money later (at least I didnt have to pay for it) I finally got it back...all nice & shiny, waxed & polished, clean inside & out. Since I work before the buttcrack of dawn, I can usually have the pick of the parking lot. I parked in my usual spot. My car was just about the only clean one there...
Today, about an hour before I was off for the day, one of my 'coworkers' came up to me with a look of astonishment on his face. "Is that your red car parked right out in front? If so, I just backed into it. The drivers door has a slight dent in it... I'm sorry, my car slipped on the ice & I just slid into it." Needless to say, I was pissed! My manager was walking by my desk & apparently heard the conversation & told me to just go out & check everything out. I was muttering under my breath that someone was going to pay, even if I had to beat it out of them. I also said I was to sick & tired of the dumbasses who worked there who didnt have any respect for other peoples property & how there was already a long scratch along the passengers side from someone who wasnt watching what they were doing. Grabbing my keys, I quickly left the building to go see what happened to my car.
Granted I dont drive a brand new car, but it's in a like-new condition & I plan on keeping it that way. It's never been smoked in, nor do I allow any food or open containers in it. Yeah, I guess I'm anal about my car...but I dont like driving around in a pig sty nor do I like riding around in one. I dont care if other people keep their car as a pig sty or what they drive looks like a piece of shit, but I care about my own cars.
The way I parked you couldnt see the drivers side until you were right up at the side of the car. When I got there & looked, there was nothing there! The dumbass was following me & said, 'Take a chill, I was only kidding! Gees, you get so uptight about your car. I thought you'd think it was funny with you just getting it back from it being backed into once already. Honestly, I didnt think you'd be so upset about it.' Uh, not be upset? Dumbass! Looking at him with disgust, I told him that he'd better get in his little rice wagon & go. Without another word I just walked away, not looking at him, not speaking to him. Yeah, I really thought that was great...real funny. When I got back to my desk, my manager asked how bad the damage was. She couldnt believe that someone would actually think this 'joke' was funny nor could she believe that anyone would even have the balls to do anything like that. You know, if I didnt think I would have been fired, I would've decked him--since I was carrying my car keys in my fist with the keys spread out. But no, I proved I was a better person by just walking away.
For that I am proud of myself. Then my friend asks for a ride home. Sure, I don't mind. We get to her house & she gives me a plant that I had said was pretty...it was actually. It had a pretty yellow flower blooming on it. Then she says it 'spews things at you--seriously'. Gee thanks, just what I need...a spewing plant. Uh, no thanks, I say--I dont need a plant that does that. No, no...she says, it sends little shoots out--I dont know what they are or anything. She's trying to kill it but it wont die. She says that I'm good with plants & for me to give it a good home. So now I have a 'Bukkake Plant'. How cool is that....
