Christmas Cards from the Edge

Dear person whose name I can not mention because it'll get me fired:

You are an insufferable jerk. Your constant need to berate and degrade those that work under you is both contemptible and laughable. The way you treat the whole team of us is unethical and immature. Your insinuations and outright degradations only signify that you lack the talent, experience and intelligence to do your job correctly. You , sir, are a joke. You are obviously trying to overcompensate for some shortcomings - both physical *cough cough* and mental.

I refuse to answer your emails any longer. If this gets me fired, then so be it. Every time I see a message from you I need a xanax just to open it. You are a small, small man and the air around you rots in your presence. Birds drop dead in mid-flight from the evil that emanates from your aura. Snakes slither away in fear. Babies cry when they sense your presence. Small children cower.

It is my sincerest wish that, for Christmas this year, someone leaves a huge steaming pile of human feces on your doorstep and eggs your house with eggs that have sat rotting for months. And that they stick fish under the backseats of your car to rot. May you get incurable jock itch and hemorrhoids the size of golf balls.

You make me sick.

I could have written this for my bitch of a boss!

Oh No!
I worked for a woman that sounds like this guy!
I ended up quitting because I was pregnant and the stess was killing me and I was afraid it would hurt my baby. God has a funny way of taking care of these people. The bridal boutique went under that this gal owned, and they took peoples money and ran. Some people didn't get a refund or a dress for their big day.
I am sorry you are dealing with this guy. I know it bites to hear, but pray for him.
These people who are so hurtful are usually the biggest victims.
Sorry you had a hard time with this guy.
I am praying for u Heidi!

Oh, wouldn't we all love to write that letter. I can think of several people that would be among the first on my list of 'Christmas Cards From the Edge'!

Well written...sorry you have to deal with someone like that.

Oh, Heidi dear dont hold back, tell him how you REALLY feel! Sounds like you need to get another job. Or a new boss.

Lauren said...

I was taking this letter very seriously until I got to "hemmorroids the size of golfballs." Then I just burst out laughing!

AngelaP said...

BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA! Love it!!

Sandy said...

I get the distinct feeling you don't like this person very much. Hope you feel better after writing such a very good rant.

Rachel said...

LOL. The only reason I didn't recognize who you were talking about is because mine is a SHE.

Hope things are much improved by now!
