Reader Submission by Cathy.
Having moved on from my former company – the best part about my new job is not having to work with the epitome of an idea stealer, and total office jerk! Every week we would have internal team meetings to throw around some creative ideas for our clients, and without fail, this particular jerk would ALWAYS take it upon himself to present the group’s ideas to our boss. It was absolutely infuriating – and the person got moved up within the company before the rest of us. Soon, he was doling out assignments he was given to us because he wasn’t experienced/creative enough to handle them himself. After a while, my coworkers and I just started to send our completed assignments directly to our boss to show that we, in fact, were the ones doing to work – not the jerk. Within a few months, he was out. Good riddance!
