I Spit in Your Food

I work with some interesting people. A few are fun, enjoyable, entertaining, delightful, attractive, intelligent…I could write more adjectives, but I’m sure you would find that boring.
On the other side of the spectrum are a few annoying coworkers. These people are idiotic, indecisive, unprofessional and lazy. Again I could write a few more adjectives, but then I would run the risk of boring you. Again.
I’ll start talking about my more annoying coworkers. I find them entertaining. In the “Let’s laugh at the idiot” way of entertainment. Zion. I find him to be the most amusing out of the group. He has this annoying way of ignoring his customers but butting in and trying to take over mine. I call it the envy syndrome. For example:
Customer: “What is in this unique looking slop?”
Me: “It is a cheese sauce poured over…”
Zion: (Speaking quickly to catch up to what I have already said.) “It is a cheese sauce poured over stuffed green peppers and garnished with deep fried okra shreddings.”
Often times Zion will ignore a customer that has just stepped up to the line ready to place their order and actually walk the fifteen feet to my end of the line where I am located to cut into my conversation and try to steal my customer. Meanwhile, I continue to serve my customer and hand them their plate. Zion, has now begun to try and begin a conversation with me, while trying to look busy by wiping away imaginary spills on the counter. I will then either direct Zion towards his waiting customer, or walk over and serve them myself, with Zion following in my footsteps. Either way he looks surprised to see a waiting customer at his station.
The envy syndrome in it’s complete cycle. And it repeats many times over throughout the day.
Entertaining coworker #1 out of the way.
