edit: ok, I’m SOOO glad its not just me. apparently, Thom York is not unique in his appearance. it would seem that a lot of people vaguely look like him.

There’s almost always one guy who is “the omega worker,” like the lowest person on the totem pole that everyone uses like a bar one can’t cross. There has to be a “well, at least I am not THAT guy!” Opposite of the Alpha pack leader, this person is the other end. Yes, it’s abusive in toxic environments, but it’s nothing compared to the chaos that follows when that person leaves. The scramble to “not be at the bottom.”
ew. like, I get what you’re describing, and I’ve heard about that before, but I suppose I’m fortunate to never have worked at a place like this. how awful that sounds, not only for the “Omega” person, but to work in an environment that encourages such hierarchical cliquery. because the worst part? th constant in-fighting, gossip, and tearing each other apart. the lies, the deceit…
ok, I hav worked at a place like this, I just realized. I must have repressed it— thank goodness, because I don’t think I could have lied convincingly for the jury at that arson trial…
In my job we had a guy that we would joke was the cause of all our issues (he obviously wasn’t and knew this, as we used to say it about things he hadn’t even touched). He eventually left for to wanting a more stable job before getting a mortgage arrive we were on the way to going under (still fighting that to this day). Even though he’s gone we still use him as reference to be like “I fixed what X broke”. Sort of used now as a way to not actually blame anyone in the company for things. Things go wrong and we fix them, no point in actually blaming anyone.
