Lying fat tried to set me up Ok. Maybe you remember my story about an obese coworker who I’ve been trying to ignore because she chronically underperforms and guilt trips me about not giving her ‘earning opportunities’. So...something happened a week ago or so that I didn’t pay much attention to at the time as my mind was fully focused on a way to move the fuck away because it’s getting more and more difficult to tolerate her. So I’m at work and she comes in looking very humbled and asks me for some help with a patient. Now, I have to say that she is older than me and has quite a bit of experience. The problem in question is a procedure that can be tricky and carries some risks. I go in to assess the situation and find the problem to be easily manageable; this should have been my red flag. Now thinking back to it, she absolutely could have done it herself. But she ‘tried and could not’ so she’s asking for help. Ok, it happens. I do it, and she praises me profusely in front of the patient and carries on. Later on I find out that she used the results of the procedure to expedite the patient’s hospital admission so that she doesn’t have to stay too late at work. And of course my name was written all over the chart. So if anyone questioned her about it, she’d be pointing in my direction.
