Title: When my zen is fucked with... I say fuck it
Post by: zero40484 on September 15, 2012, 04:49:31 AM
Well I am a factory worker. That being said my boss is a ass hole, no exaggeration.

So I get my reaming for something I didnt do. Already having production for the night, I say to my boss after his rant " on that note I'm heading to the house"

My dudeism is also a mechanism alowing me to say Fuck it today so I have a job tomorrow.

I believe my exact lifestyle title would be a zendudeist.

Woooooh thanks for letting me get that off my chest

Hey,dude,I feel your pain,man!
My last boss looked like Heinrich Himmler,and acted like him too..
I know it..being blamed for shit that happened before I even got to work,having to deal with a human paraquat is tough..you gotta bite your tongue,and not let your inner Walter come out!

Like I always said at my job....if  assholes were airplanes,this place would be an airport...

The wisdom of the Dude might be applied here; I would say to your boss "well, that's just like your opinion, man." Or if it would not be prudent to say so, at least think it and don't let the undude park in your brain or give you a rash. Fuck it, life goes on, man.

OK, how about this scenario: a neighbour - kinda known as a freeloader - borrows a tarp from me for his garden party, but returns it with a rip. I want to go all Walter on him...

Well Zero man....  I would say you have two options in this situation.  One, find a new job that doesn't harsh your mood.  Or, just press on with your current employment and find things that take your mind off of it.   Trust me, I know all about things harshing one's life.  But you don't have time to worry about that shit. Just my thought.

The Dude that posted above me made a pretty fucking good point, man.  There really are only two options.  Best of luck divining which is the best for you.  I know I was miserable in an old job.  That's why I got a new job.

But even the homeless guy in Hawaii, is homeless in Hawaii.

I worked several factory jobs in my "lost decade".
While I liked factory work as a decent paying job that typically left me a generous amount of time to ride and take care of the stuff I cared about, it did have a pretty fair amount of human paraquat in management.
You really are in the trenches where you see the management 'vs' union (or if non union labor).
Eventually I got shit canned for punching out a coworkers lights.
Not very Dude but it turned out to be the best thing.

I like your style... and don't think that's undude at all! You had your reasons.

I manage a recycling centre and look after 4 guys on two shifts...I'm there Sunday to Thursday...the guys do 4 on 4 off in two shifts.

I have to look after them and protect them from the evil that is the "general public"

Man the abuse I have to put up with you would not believe!!

I am the most amiable bloke I would like to meet in a pub and I treat my team well. I don't harass them for being late/hungover and I'm flexible when it comes to them leaving early... They all take it in turns and as long as the heirarchy don't find out it will continue...if they do then we have an agreement that the guy who left early had a "family emergency" The only one who dips out on this arrangement is me!

That being said....I can be quite liberal with my morning timekeeping...knowing that the lads won't dob me in for being 15 or 30 mins late...I'm not a morning person dudes!

We have a good relationship in as much as the boys can rely on me to stand up for them whenever there is an issue with a "customer" and I can rely on them to do the job the way I like it done...and in order that my bosses are happy.

Have I mentioned that I HATE my fucking job. I fucking detest the arseholes that come to my site and think they are God because I work in a dump and therefore must be thick! These human paraquats have no fucking idea about the only rule ... "treat others as you would wish to be treated"

One day my inner Walter will explode all over there asses!  ;D

Peace.

Most people congratulated me on it afterwords.
I also am pretty easy to get along with.
But I'll tell you working nights in a place that is around 100 degrees Fahrenheit for several night in a row on little or no sleep will knock the Dude out of anybody.

Man,they can't fuck with your Zen.That's what Zen is.Zen lets you be a part and apart at the same time.To be in the action and see the action all at once.To be able to be aware of your bosses singular perspective and his shortcomings all at the same time and having the satisfaction of knowing that he is a complete dickhead.

It's all true.... I got some skullcandie ear buds, needless to say having music I like grately reduces the suck factor of work and reenforces my (I don't mind.... It don't matter) mindset

I started to look at work as the 8-12 hour little chore I have to get done before enjoying the rest of my life. Mentally, that's just the way that makes it easier for me to abide and say "fuck it" when things get ridiculous.

It's like shitting, showering and shaving...you just have to do it before you get on with the other things that make life fun. Although taking a shit and showering can be pretty enjoyable.

Unless you're the one who has to clean up after the fool who does those things simultaneously.  ;D

Old joke: What's the difference between toilet paper and a shower curtain? I don't know. Okay, then, you're not invited to my next party.

Ha no no, I never mix pooping and showering. I have a beautiful tradition of doing them separately!

I am glad we've established that!  ;D You're no longer on the do-not-invite list, Dude.
