This may be hard to describe, I'll try my best.
Ya know when someone either accuses you of something or criticizes you for doing something, but they do the exact thing they are yelling at YOU about, but they totally deny it?
I effing hate it.
I have a coworker who said to me the other night "Maybe if you stopped talking so much, you'd have gotten more done."
The other night, we ended up with too many people in the area, so this one lady just hung around me and we bullshitted and worked together, even though it's a one person job, if you need to look busy, you can make it a two person job. I ran the product in the machine and she took the good ones and put them away to the next area. Hence my "talking so much".
Funny, this is the same coworker who constantly talks with others and generally does the least he has to do to get the job done, if he gets it done. If you dare interrupt one of his geekfest conversations he's having, he gets irritated that he has to help you.
Really? Why do people do this? Sure, alcoholics are the first people to deny that they have a problem and point out other people who drink a lot and call them names and drug addicts do the same, but why when it comes to stuff in the workplace or at home or with friends.........I don't get how people can be in such denial of their own bad habbits that they call it out on others, when most of the time, the other person isn't even doing anything wrong.
Well back to work......after he said that, I looked at him and said "You're kidding, right? I interrupt your dorkfest and you shoot daggers at me with your eyes. And you're really going to stand here and say that I was talking too much?" and he just harumphed and didn't talk to me anymore.
