I Hate A Ratfink

Tattle Tale - Fink - Snitch... They all have a name, they are your co-workers who spy on you to see what you are doing. They are the people who have no real need for anything that you have other than they saw you have something on your computer that although was fine to have, just cause it is on the computer and it is frowned on they have to go to the boss to tell them.

They watch you no matter what your doing and have to go tell that to someone that your not marching totally in step with everyone else, your wearing sunglasses in the building and not outside.  You have different wallpaper than the windows default on your computer, you have a video that is not work related on your laptop. 

They tell your boss and then you have to "clean" up your stuff, make sure that you don't step out of the cadence...  

Nothing you can do about it, except bend to it.   The inexplicable need to tell on someone is a impulse that many can't control. 

Had a many people like that in my life, think your telling them something in confidence and as soon as they hang up with you they are calling the person that you were talking about and telling them what you said.   That was the last 2 years of my marriage.

Makes you wonder why people come to an anonymous place to say something with out it getting back to the co-worker, the "friend", the boss, the customer.  THE RAT FINK!!!!

Just don't let them get to you and don't do that same bullshit. I am lucky that I have a great boss and he would probably laugh if they said anything
... the background on my work computer is my horses... my nieces and nephews... and the Sgt...
Along with some friends in uniform and American flags.
I never will forget being reported for wearing my mouthpiece at work... lol one of my former senile coworkers thought I was just whitening my teeth at work... then my boss already had my medical records as to why I had to wear the pieces at certain times. That person was in my business all the time and ended up being forced to quit. I never did anything to her.
