this is arguably an act of utter hypocrisy on my part
but I'm going to do it anyway.

A lot of people have posted on here about 'spoilt' workmates - maybe they're related to the boss, or the useless scion of an important client, or the boss is having an affair with them, or isn't but would like to...

anyway, people who make work miserable for everyone else and aren't held accountable for it because they have some kind of special status.

There's a reasonably easy way to protect yourself from this. Just saying.

Oh, dear
You are clearly a Catholic freemason intent on causing chaos and forcing socialist economic and monetary union on the whole of the North American continent.

If you don't believe me, just read Burton Russell, or whatever his name is.

I suppose you think it's coincidence
that Area 51 is said to be located in Roswell?

In a state, I might add, that the Clinton Administration re-named New Mexico.

It's only a coincidence
if you think that HG Wells did most of the thinking behind the great depression and that if you want to avoid paying tax you can exempt yourself from the law by signing a piece of paper.

Look
if you're not going to provide evidence for your spurious claims then STOP WASTING MY TIME YOU MOUSE FART

Pah.
The absence of evidence proves just how deep this conspiracy runs. All the evidence has been well hidden.

Of course, you'll never see this if you insist on believing evidence. Abandoning it altogether is the only way to see through the conspiracy for which there is no evid...

Oh. Hang on...

Orwell
It's a good idea on paper (or monitor), but there are always people who will want to be less cooperative than others.
( sandettie light vessel automatic New Twitter - @bollocksreally, Fri 10 Oct 2008, 16:10, closed)

my most relevant personal experience
is working in a government department, with a manager who was very lacking social skills. I don't think she was naturally a bully, but she kind of turned into one because she couldn't manage otherwise.

'The System' didn't make her have no social skills. But 'the System' did turn her from 'someone with no social skills' to 'a bully with no social skills and power'. It also made one person's problem into 11 people's problem.

The reason she wasn't fired (and I suspect the reason she was hired in the first place) is that the people doing the hiring didn't have to take the consequences of her being hired.

So a worker cooperative would remove her incentive to be a bully, and replace it with an incentive to be 'nice' and get on with people.
