Have you ever had a friend or acquaintance like this?

One of my former coworkers is a meangirl, a gossip, and she manipulates things to go the way she wants them. And somehow, magically, she never gets caught and it all works out for her. It's pretty grim when you realize you spent your life trying to follow rules and be a good, kind, ethical, honest person, but THESE types are the ones who actually get ahead in life because they don't care what they have to do to get what they want. They'll step on toes, they'll lie, cheat, and manipulate.

They always get caught out eventually. It's usually spectacular when they do.

@PatientlyWaiting25 hope you're right

No I haven't but I observed it many times that people who don't stress themselves out over rules often do just fine most of the time. It makes me question my whole life and who tf I am and why, how did it start and what am I even getting from being the way I am in this society.

I listened to a short clip from and interview with Mia Goth earlier this day where she openly said how she used to steal a lot as a teen and how she would absolutely lie about anything if it meant that she's going to get a job. 😐 Like...okay? Got the message, we all are probably idiots for trying to be honest and if you are famous, it's totally okay to talk about stealing as some funny anecdote. Idk...it put me off.

@CrazyMusicLover it seems to be that those ambitious-beyond-all-reason types are put on a pedestal these days. It is pretty sickening.

Yes. She died and the all the coworkers celebrated. They actually had a party after work. She was so mean i mean everybody hated her.
PatientlyWaiting25 · 46-50, F
@Blaz3 that's actually awful though, there would have been someone grieving her somewhere even if she wasn't liked very much at work.
Blaz3 · 51-55, F
@PatientlyWaiting25 very true. It really was. She fired someone whose wife was having labor pains his wife called saying it was an emergency and she kept telling him save leaving early for the day that she actually goes into labor and that it's false labor pains like she's a doctor. Someone else's kid got hurt in a car accident she said your wife is there she can handle it . Her nickname around the office was Hitler.

Karma catches up eventually

I've worked with many people like that. It's common for people to hustle and lie where I work.

They usually "get theirs" in the end... what's due to em....and it can be sad to watch. I have seen it happen.
DearAmbellina2113 · 46-50, F
@heavyone2 I hate to say it but I do hope karma gets her. She's been needlessly mean to a mutual friend of ours for a long time, for no reason other than "oh he annoys me".

I want to be good and kind because that's what I want to communicate to others not because I was told to. There will always be creeps that don't give a fk about other people only what's in it for them.

Yes, unfortunately that seems to be more the norm in corporate America. The ones that got me were those who always wanted to take credit but not accept any responsibility.
