    'Dark Knight' workplace vigilante

    Gosh I remembered when reading this linky one of the reasons I became a contractor.

    There use to be a guy in a place where I was permie who was a manager. He use to openly keep track of when other staff came in and left including lunch and toilet breaks. Oddly he was a manager with no staff to manage....

      I used to work with a paranoid guy who collected dirt on everyone. Really sick bastard. Glad I left that place years ago.

        This kind of tulip is more a villain thing rather than a superhero.

            "Dark knight" was my friends name when he was in the swinging scene.

            Being half-African people were often surprised when they asked "which half" ... to find that he was black from the waist down.

            He said his cum shot was "check mate!" shouted manicly with a fat bald sweaty grin. He was an albino black dude with ginger curly hair and buck teeth. He was a chess grand master.

              That's the problem with being a beach bum, FTB. Eventually you end up a lonely, impotent druggie destined for an early grave.

                I'm not on a beach, I'm on a trading floor in a European capital. But I'll be back on a beach tomorrow. Enjoy your sad sack weekend of "post-brexit planning". Some of us already made it!

                  Yep used to work with a guy like that. Used to say that we had to "Avoid toilet breaks when its busy". WTF.

                  Tried to tell everyone they weren't allowed to leave site at lunchtime too. If you had a meeting at one of the other sites (they had 3 or 4 within 20 miles) he'd have a strange habit of turning up unexpectely to make sure you didn't skive off home after the meeting.

                    I would have reported him.

                    Seriously there are people with hidden conditions/disabilities who find the only place they can take medication/sort themselves out is in the toilet. It is none of his business whether people have these conditions/disabilities.

                    And that's ignoring women who are pregnant or breast feeding.

                    Again the disability aspect can be used to tell him to pipe down.

                    If he had been threatened with the sack by a couple of people with disabilities/pregnant/breast feeding or flexible working reporting him, he may have stopped doing that.
