I just have to shake my head.
We're on an extended field project and were staying in a rental house on the Jersey shore (sorry I haven't called anyone yet, we're busy as heck, I'm even working today).
A few days ago, two coworkers got in my face, accusing me of stealing their steaks out of a container of marinade in the refrigerator. The steaks they accused me of taking were actually MINE. I told them to call another coworker, who had given me the container of marinade and watched as I put my ribeyes into it several days earlier, to confirm. They declined, instead being content to call me a liar. I told them to go outside and play hide and go **** themselves.
Fast forward to yesterday morning, and one of them is cleaning out the fridge because we needed to move out into a hotel as the house was booked. Guess what turned up? Exactly. Their steaks, on a plate, wrapped in plastic. Instead of apologizing, they accused rather rudely of taking their steaks out, putting them on the plate, and putting mine in. I again told them to go play hide and go **** themselves.
Fast forward to yesterday evening. Said 3rd coworker returns from a short job he had been on. He ran into the first two coworkers in their rooms, getting ready to cook said steaks on the grill out back. He informed them that it would probably not be a good idea to eat them at this point, as it had been over a week since he had taken them out of the marinade and put them on the plate.
As it turns out, not only had he taken their steaks out and put them on the plate, but he had told them he was going to do it (it was his marinade that he had graciously let them use), did it IN FRONT OF THEM, and made sure they saw where in the fridge he had put them.
Of course, no apology was issued and I don't expect to get one.
So I figure, either these two coworkers are stupid, senile, willfully ignorant, or just plain mean. And people wonder why I prefer the company of my cars over people.
