One thing I warned him, Chief Snitch was in a bad mood. She has a couple of personality disorders which I have idly diagnosed for fun: Munchausen by Proxy (always a drama if her husband gets a mosquito bite), and Narcissistic personality disorder. Now, Ron had the latter so I have some experience.
Basically, butt kissing, letting them know they are invaluable, etc. If you want to cut them to the bone tell them they don't matter or are unimportant. I had a line I used on Ron when he was awful "You're not that important" and it would immediately shut down whatever abuse. I did have to use it a few times. It didn't honor God, sorry Lord.
Anyway I know how. Now she (Chief Snitch) had been out for days because "her husband". He is a healthy, active, man. So they were out a whole week because of it. He was running around the store like nobody's business too.
So she came in. Friday night our department was beyond understaffed. But the few who were working, got it done, even though one of the acting managers pulled rank and pulled me off my job for an hour to do something else.
Now CS was hoping she'd come in, everyone fall all over her "Oh thank God you'er here, it was so terrible without you!" Things in chaos, etc.
Instead she came in, everything looked great, and *spicy boss gave a little speech during the meeting how awesome we (Friday night workers) were, and gave us each a hug in front of the whole team*. CS was incandescent with rage. She came after me shouting I was supposed to be off Friday and why did I work? Things like that.
She has a thing where she accuses me of "shouting" at her when I'm using the same voice I use with everyone. She also accused me of "smelling". I said I took a shower that morning, laughing, said I used soap. She sniffed again said I smelled "rancid" and was "making her sick". I shrugged it off. Spicy boss would have 100% said something especially when she hugged me, the other Team Lead was there and standing right next to me, and I was talking to another associate before work (I gave her those cookies that flipped the allergies for me), she is a big mouth (I love her!) and would have said something for sure.
I used unscented soap because I am trying to baby my skin after the hives. My trusty Arm and Hammer Fresh Deodorant. I told CS, I am using Tiger Balm maybe that is it but she insisted it wasn't. I dropped it.
My favorite, though, was when I did my hair for the first time.
Here is a photo of Spotty.
I came into work the day after I did my hair and everyone from the vendors to the store manager were gaping at me, jaws on the ground, compliments flying more than I have ever had in my entire life! It was astounding. And why I want to do my hair again.
Anyway, CS walks in, does a double take, and snaps "You look like Spotty!" and stormed off.
Narcissists don't like it when *anyone* gets attention!
