I have to tell you about this jackass!  He has been a pain in my butt since I took over the management of my department at the hospital.
Bryan comes from Boston and he is a Yankee among Yankees.  According to Bryan: Abraham Lincoln was the greatest president this country has ever had.  According to Bryan:  Lincoln was correct in sending the Army to the South to teach those damn Rebels a lesson.  According to Bryan:  The Civil war was fought just to free the slaves and the damn Rebels started it.
 
Bryan NEVER refers to anyone from the South as a Southerner.  It's always a damn Rebel.  Confederate flags are "damn Rebel Flags".  So he doesn't know squat about the war.
 
Mike is my leadman.  He's from Oklahoma and a biker.  He drives a big, honking Harley Road King and has a Low Rider as a second bike. He belongs to a local club, The Thrid Rail.  25 members.....all professionals.  Two attorneys, one doctor and several other professional people.  One morning Mike's car wouldn't start, so he climbed aboard his Harley and came to work.  He walked in wearing his leathers.  Bryan made a big stink about it...first to Mike, then to me.  "Why do you let your people wear those biker clothes in?"  I told Bryan he was a biker and I didn't give a damn what the wore to and from work.  While he's working....he's wearing scrubs!
 
I started a fun thing in the department.  Hat Day.  One day a month my people wear a goofy hat into and at work.  I give out little prizes for the best hats.  Bryan made a stink about this. "Your people are not very professional looking in those hats!"  The folks in the hospital love it.  They say it breaks up the daily monotony and gives them a laugh.
 
I told my people they could use a Walkman, or small portable radio and listen to music while they worked.  Bryan made a stink out of this.  "If there is a code in the hospital, your people won't hear it!"  I told Bryan that none of my people were on any of the code response teams.  What are they going to do in a room where someone is having a heart attack....mop the floors?  Wash the windows?  Empty trash cans? When and if there is a code....my people step out of the way and let the response teams through then go on about thier business.  They have nothing to do with codes.
 
Bryan is a trouble maker.  He graduated from some Ivy League College with a degree in Business Management and thinks he God's gift to the business world.  No one in the hospital (including the CEO) likes him.  He's the manager of Medical Records and his people hate him with a passion!  He's been ragging on me and my people since I've been there and before I retire...he will pay for it!

RebelVsB, Bryan is giving Pony and the other employees a real hard time. I recommened that Pony give Bryan a taste of his own medicine. Sometimes, that is the only way that people, can learn from their mistakes. Yes, I am a Christian. Teresa

Rebel:  Go back and read my very first post on this thread.  Then you will know what kind of person this "Tryin" Bryan is.  He is a pain in the backside to everyone!

love everyone.
 
I can't even force myself to "love" or even like "Tryin" Bryan.  He's been a pain in the backside since I have known him...he is constantly ragging on my people and me and a bunch of other folks and he is NOT liked by anyone in the hospital.   Under normal circumstances I would walk away and forget this jackass, but he has pushed me over the limit. Revenge is a dish that is best served cold and I will be serving that dish!  He will pay for his actions!

If I were not Christian I think I would still keep something of God on my side just in case I was wrong.

Like my Dad said to me many years ago there are only two people in this world
that are positive about anything. A jackass, and a politician.

And "Tryin" Bryan fits both of those quite nicely....especially the jackass!  He will pay!

Not to worry!  Between myself, Mike, my biker leadman and practical joker, Jim from Engineering and Bill from Security and a couple of other managers who are in cahoots with us.....Bryan has had it!  Our CEO is even in on it.  Tom Davis is our CEO and a descendant of Jefferson Davis.  He has a very strong dislike for Bryan and his attitudes about Confederates and the war. 
 
Here's the game plan:  This coming Wednesday one of the managers who is in cahoots with us will get Bryan busy doing something.  While this is going on Jim from Engineering is going to crank up the forklift and drive out to the parking lot.  He'd going to pick up Bryans little car and drive it over to the restricted doctors parking lot and deposit it there.
Bill from Security will be notified.  He will go through a sham investigation, then call a tow truck.  If Bryan raises a ruckus with security about it they will say....they tried to get hold of him, but couldn't.  We have been working on this plan a couple of weeks and we have it all covered!  When we told the CEO about it he just smiled and said:  "Be careful...I'll cover you!"
 
Our CEO is super cool.  He just doesn't sit in his office and give orders. He's all over the hosptial talking with people and getting their input on any number of things.  He never want's to be called by "Mr. Davis" either.  When you talk with him...you are on a first name basis.  Several of the employees (myself included) wanted a covered, heated outside smoking area.  Tom got one for us.  It's not fancy, but it works!  He's the first CEO I've ever encountered that didn't consider himself a God.

Thats a great plan. I wish I could be there to see that all come down. Next time you see that clown tell him, be sure brain is in gear before engageing mouth.
It sounds like he`s hostile to all. I bet he`s a real nasty neighbor too.

Enjoy all.
