A "dad bod" fat has finally done it for me. My wonderful shit family. A fat has won. Not a Landwhale, not an eatbeast. But a dad bod.  I am arguing with myself... 2 weeks notice or fire me. I have been slumming it. Work is easy. I'm not doing 7 days a week and travelling all over the US. This is the easiest job I have ever done.  And then fatty. I am used to working with or among the fats. But this one will forever have a place in my heart. You see.... fatty has always been late to work. From moment of hire to now several months later, fatty clocks in at home and then goes to office or dispatches. Fatty increases the number of my fix the fuck up calls. Fatty is the nephew of our national service manager that my boss (regional manager) answers to. Fatty always misses a day or 2 of work a week. Fatty took vacation his second week hired. Fatty clocks in well before going to work and well after he left work. Fatty is useless, but nepotism is great. Company policy is to ask 2 weeks to a month for vacation time. Fatty asks for it a month and a half to 2 months, does not make it clear to me or tech's in our area. I have marathon and family coming up. "Its been asked for, you can't do it". I am pissed. Least days off of anyone, least callbacks, and while I am more retarded by the day working here, i try to do good work. Out of town? I'm the first person asked, and have been skipped on company per diem. Worked with fatty today on Sunday overtime. Fatty was drugged up and not rationalizing. Almost got ran over by a factory robot. Fatty could not figure out taking other rolls of hose with the one roll he grabbed at finished locations. Fatty is fucking useless and put in priority over me for everything due to nepotism. And if anyone did half his shit he'd be fired  I'm done and I'll be taking my vacation with a 2 weeks notice or not.
