Bastard ColleaguesYou've all known one. The brown-nosing fucker, the 'comedian', the drunk, the gossip and of course the weird one with no mates who goes bell ringing, looks like Mr Majika and sports a monk's haircut (and is a woman).
Tell us about yours...
Thanks to Deskbound for the idea

becausei'm ordinary. I work for a major supermarket on nightshift. People who have held jobs at my workplace for a reasonable length of time (6 months+ ) or still do:
The cokehead - bounces around at 200mp/h (still employed)
The alcoholic - smelt of alcohol even at 4am, 4 hours into her shift (6 months)
The slacker manager - would cut out 1 hour before shift ended to avoid being bollocked (4 years)
The serious dole-dodger - managed to wangle his contract down to one shift a week, but still on full pay due to his wife having 'cancer'. Seen at pub every other night (2 years)
And me? 2 years. Unblemished record (apart from the odd sick day). Up for review because i don't, as my manager put it, "match up to company standards".
What, because i'm not a smacked-up alchy waster with no prospects? Because i only use my job as a money spinner? Because in 3 months time i'll be more qualified than him?
Yes, of course. Perfect.
