The Chameleon

I am this close to quitting. Seriously.

First, the inefficient IT goes around all day taking credit for what the whole team has done, which, IT doesn't even take a pinky to lift most of the time.

Second, IT drives me nuts by being needy. I am not a secretary, but I sometimes have to do Yaya duties.

Third, I am at the end of my wits when IT pushes her weight around, despite knowing IT is at fault. IT has never admitted her mistakes.

Fourth, IT volunteers jobs and projects that we are not supposed to be championing. I know that it is good to assert one's self, but I also believe one should not bite off more than one can chew.

Fifth, those extra jobs IT takes--she passes them on to the rest of us, which we have to handle ourselves and then, update IT with the outcome.

Then we go back to the first reason where IT gets the gist of the project and reports it to the top management as though IT was the only one that came up with the idea, worked with it and finished it in record time. I am so full of this shit that I'm terribly afraid I might be unconsciously morphing into someone like IT .

I get blamed for all the bad things, even the ones I have no inkling of. IT has never defended me for me, even while I get reprimanded standing beside her. IT has reasoned out once for the team, but that was because she herself was also being questioned.

Can you believe that load of crap? And the person who is supposed to correct/reprimand IT, instead of demanding an answer from my SUPERIOR, goes straight to me for the blame.

Is this great or what?

Hummin': Bad Day by Daniel Powter

I've never met anyone like IT, who can be the nicest, funniest, (heck, even) coolest person one minute and metamorphose into the ugliest, shapeliest monster the next.

She can switch sides just like -that- and manipulate you into thinking you're at fault or are directly involved as a problem's source. She is like an expansive black canopy that screens all your good deeds and highlights the smallest of mishaps. I often wonder how she can turn off her conscience and sleep at night.

I've only been discovering lately just how much she has been nitpicking behind my back, using me as a scapegoat so she can be PERFECT. It enrages me when she small-talks and be all friendly-friendly with me, when I know that she would be stabbing me with a dagger the second I turn my back.

*shivers*

Imagine having to deal with something like IT for 10 hours a day EVERYday.

I've almost given up thrice with all the politics that she plays around with. I mean, how could anyone be that lazy, callous, selfish and bossy still appear like a superduperstar at her job? She's got top management eating out of the palm of her hand, just like the way I used to be.

I'm giving it a last high-ho, because my next horrible discovery will most likely send me straight to the hospital with a letter of resignation the very next day.
