There's this guy who keeps trying to make me look bad at work for no reason I can think of. An Example: I work IT for a civil construction company and had just installed a new printer in the safety trailer on one of our sites. Anyways, this was a new, cheaper printer than out usual Ricoh's we get and it used a different format of address book import, and the safety office was only going to email one of two people and it saves them after you use it once anyways, so I left it be and everyone there was cool with it. So this guy who works in there goes and calls my office extension on a Monday and leaves a voice mail about wanting to get the address book imported into it.
Here's the thing. I have two extensions, one for the main office and one on site. I spend most of the week on site and only one or two days in the office, and everyone in the company knows this and it's made clear on the company extension list that's ON HIS GODDAMN WALL. This guy has seen me, walked through my site office and never once said two words to me on site all week. So Friday rolls around and I get CC'd on a big email to my boss, and the site manager from him bitching about me not doing it for him, and that I never even responded. I literally just sat at my desk for the first time all week and got his message. This wasn't the first time he's gone around and done something like this in a round about way just to make it look like I'm not doing my job.
So I called him out on it. Put the address book in his printer and then explained this to my boss and the HR manager who simply said "don't worry about it he's an asshole". Never had a problem again.
He ends every email with "Please advise" too.
"Please advise" my foot in your ass.
