I had a dude who tried to get me fired by stealing client data and trying to frame it on me. He confessed to someone he was so fucking sure would just take that in stride and not go to management with that.

I also found out that he thought that would work because he thought I was on a final write up for another thing that he tried to pin on me before that. But his whole claim there made no fucking sense and was dismissed within minutes, so nothing ever ever came of it. He just assumed it had worked without trying to confirm anything.

Why do you have a work nemesis?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent.

Dictionary says nothing about righteous.

one that inflicts retribution or vengeance

a formidable and usually victorious rival or opponent

Never the less, I think it's appropriate for @DivineJustice to have a nemesis.
