Unfortunatly I have known way too many people like that. Guy I work
with is like that - a cheap ass - and a jerk. Unfortunatly he is also a
manager and above me on the food chain.

I'll give you a good example. One morning I went and fetched some
breakfast for him and myself. My suggestion. The following day he
wanted me to go get something again. I had brought food that day - and
he was really pressuring me to go get some Hardees. So I finally caved
- went and got some food for him and bought myself something. I spent my
last 5 bucks - I wasnt going to go out JUST to get HIM soemthing. Being
that hes a jerk and I;ve had problems with him before.

Later that day - I walk into the back office after finishing up with a
customer - and there hes sitting - eating pizza with one of the other
managers. I looked at him and said whered the pizza come from "oh we
went out and got some" I started cussing him out - litterally and told
him how inconsiderate that was to not even ASK me if I wanted anything.
  Especially since he made a huge stinking fuss that morning! He didnt
even offer me a slice.

Some time later - I had some pizza - he wanted a slice - I said "I'll
think about it".

Yeah hes a manager - yeah I gota kiss his ass - but hes the same age as
I am - and I dont let him push me around - no one else likes him there
either. And considering I'm activly looking for another job - I dont
quite care what happens heh.

A good friend of mine liked this saying, she used to say "those who know
me, know me, those who don't... (can go to hell)" lol.

Life is too short to worry over jackasses.
