My friends tell me to quit caring.

I have trouble at my job because I actually care about what I’m doing. I also have a low tolerance for stupid people. There’s one guy at work who kept asking me about my schedule and I kept telling him that I had no idea since I’d never seen the program I was supposed to be working on. Nothing has changed but he just keeps asking me the same question. This morning, I even told him, “&*!*$ marketing, what do they know? We need a working computer to figure out how long this will take.” This afternoon he asked me again and again even after I called him a <bad word> moron. I don’t know what persistent questioning is going to do except trigger my utter rage.

The good news (for a co-worker) is that the co-worker, who had been telling our manager that our jobs were nonsense, has found a new job. This gives me a little hope that there are ways out of this group. I’ve had nightmares where I’m the last one left, though.
