An Impossible Person

He worked for a state government
in the USA with the protection of a
union.

And a more annoying person, you
probably could not find.

He abused his union protection
when he had an interview to work
at another city for the state
government, and his future
supervisor was late for the
interview.

He reported her for her tardiness
to the state government’s home
office, not a wise move.

Because of the union rules, she
had to hire him despite seeing him
as an impossible person to have
to supervise or even get along
with.

Things got irreversibly worse.

At the mandatory Friday meetings
he always asked annoying
questions that ticked off the
supervisor and her supervisor.

Eventually he went too far with
his errant behavior, and despite
his union protection, he got fired.

But, damn, he made those boring,
mandatory Friday meetings so
much fun, and myself and the
other state employees always
looked forward to them.
