Company Decisions
There’s nothing more annoying than a co-worker that tries to upstage you to make himself look better in front of the boss. No one knows this better than Reddit user kaxobixo, who had a co-worker that was totally trying to one-up him to get the company to notice him. They did, too, but not the way he wanted.
“I was working as a consultant for a company, there was a bit of a competition between me and this guy, company starts to have some financial issues so I leave and start working for a client of theirs.
Shortly after joining they bring in this guy I was competing with at my old job, he was technically my equal except now I was employed by the client and he was just a consultant.
He was trying to one-up me during meetings and my boss told him that decisions are made by the company not the consultants. It felt good.”
