Them... Those...People you'd deal with at work:- co-workers- bosses- customersEssentially, anybody you need to be around who could make things more difficult then they need to be.This is a blog-ish story accounting my personal experiences, along with the odd special chapter doccumenting the accounts of people I know.Though seemingly bleak, the aim of this series is to share and hopefully give people a bit of a boost, something to relate their experience to & know they're not odd or alone.Those around me & myself rant about work, some people don't have this luxury.I have had apparantely contrasting work & am able to more empathetic to specific sectors I knew little of before hand - so you'll likely find a work rant just for you. ;)Updated when stuff happens, I remember stuff or someone's told me stuff.…
