I think we are highly adaptive in order to survive. Little kids always know who to throw a temper tantrum to. Even my little pup knows who spoil him and who not.

the problem is they don't do anything in return
yesterday I get an email from an account rep to put together a stats report for one of their clients, which they could of easily done with 2 mouse clicks. whatever, its easier for me to do it then explain it 5 times. its broken down by day over the last 30 days with the last column showing totals
I send it to her then she asks "I only need it for the last week, can you remove the other 21 days?" Instead I just tell her retarded ass to DELETE the fucking rows in Excel. Being stupid, she then sends it to the customer but doesn't update the totals column
I get an email this morning saying "[me], you did this wrong! The customer is mad that we can't get them the right numbers. Please fix it and send it back ASAP." Now keep in mind this is pretty fucking basic, a 8 year old with brain damage could figure it out... but worse, she copies my boss on the email
WTF?!? Why are people so fucking stupid. I try to help with something now I'm caught in the middle of this BS
I HATE stupid people
