24 People Who Were Convinced They Were “All That,” But Were Actually Just Doing Too Much

“A fellow that worked in a neighboring department a couple of years ago now decided to come to work at 3 am or so and just sit in the parking lot. He used that time to wait until a new coworker was coming into work between 5 & 5:30am to confront him about parking in his “spot.” We have no designated parking; it’s first-come, first-served parking. From what I remember, this fella got suspended with pay by HR, had a list of things to work on to be able to come back to work, but allegedly he decided to make his own list of demands before he would come back. This got all the way up to the CEO and he basically just fired him at that point.”

“Afterwards he had several FB posts about the workplace, and anytime someone posted something about an opening or a job well done, he would comment his own feelings/perceptions—which were always negative. This was not the first run-in with HR either for this fella. Apparently he thinks highly of himself and that his opinion trumps others’ opinions. Basically has to be the smartest person in the room.”
