Snitches

Post by Barbel »

Does anyone else have a snitch in the office who watches everyone's move and goes reporting back to the managers? I can't go into too much detail for obvious reasons, but a person in our office has been suspended because we have a snake in the grass who runs to managers and even takes photo evidence to drop people in it. :evil/mad

Every office has one.
We call ours "Watching me watching you". We used to sing it to the tune of Abba's Knowing me knowing you.
Now we are not allowed to.

If you don't do anything wrong, they can't report you can they.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Ha ha I'll have to remember that one. Yes you're right, if you do the job properly you've got nothing to worry about, but there's nothing worse than knowing you're being watched all the time and they're waiting for you to make the tiniest mistake so they can go reporting back. I just can't understand what they get out of it, this person is even so blatant about it in front of other colleagues. Must be after the managers job!

Going off the subject a bit :
"Watching me watching you". We used to sing it to the tune of Abba's Knowing me knowing you.
Now we are not allowed to.
We used to sing " Bring it back " to Molokos - Sing It Back but we aren't allowed to now as it was classed as B&H against the line managers :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

Taking photo evidence? The snitch is on very shaky ground if that is happening inside the depot.

Ask the snitch to watch Midnight Express this weekend. Maybe he/she'll get the message... :Applause

We have a couple of "Runners" who the Manager goes to when he wants to know how long a particular Duty should take. Then he says to you, "Well I've been told that Duty should only take X amount of time" ;liar

I just point out that we don't all work at the same speed and he shouldn't believe all he hears. I agree that I can't see what these assholes get out of it... "Brownie Points"? What good are they to anyone? :hmmmm

At my friends delivery office a large amount of d2d's were found hidden, it seems the person who hidden them has blamed other people for this. Could now be the case that somebody will possible lose their job for a crime which they did not commit. Good job nobody snitched though?

Snitches should be hanged publicly or beaten up outside office

If the other people didn't do it then there will be zero evidence. You can't sack someone on the basis of 'so-and-so said they put them there'.
