I hate it when working people screw each other over.

Especially when it is me who is getting screwed. Long story short, a fellow worker did something that dicked me out of 6 hours of overtime a week and benefited no one except our boss. This is coming at a time when my wife is out of work and I need all of the overtime I can get. I can't wait to get out of that place.

I agree 100%, and trying not to recall when crap like that happened to me. Ended up 'training' my replacement! (whom I happened to like, by the way, and who, a few months later, died due to sleep apnea.)
