Dear coworker,
I know you are a family friend. I grew up with you. I grew up camping with you and your sons. That is wonderful.
However, I have concluded that outside of a camping/social scenario, you are not very bright. You are a terrible boss. You say you don't micromanage; what you really mean is that you don't do ANYTHING!
You are shocked I've announced my plans to leave this company in the next two months-- do you realize what a dysfunctional piece of crap this department is? DO SOMETHING. I know you are really non-confrontational and that is wonderful for you... however it really screws people like me over!
I went to you when a coworker threw the things she wanted mailed at me the second time and you LAUGHED IT OFF! You didn't even talk to her! Granted, I know she's hard to get a hold of, but if you look up from your desk you'll occasionally see a blur of orange-haired white trash with a can of sugar-free Red Bull whisk by. Maybe you can catch her with a trap baited with a box of wine and a Good Will gift certificate.
I really wish you'd listen to me. Do you realize how dumb the complaints are on my reviews? How can you sit there and look at me with a straight face while you tell me about complaints about my desk needing to be dusted more often and the fax machine not having enough paper sometimes? These are PETTY COMPLAINTS, because these women are twice my age and apparently are threatened by me! HELLO, have you ever talked to women? Don't you see how they are?
DO YOUR DAMN JOB! I'm sexually harrassed by guys at work 5 million times a day and I don't say anything to you because I KNOW you won't do anything but laugh it off and say "Boys will be boys".
Really?
If I was a mean person, I could take this company to court and probably never have to work another day in my life-- you're lucky that I'm not that kind of person.
