Man i hate people like this You guys have any other tech related stories with these kind of people
Idea guys detected Go get someone to work on your facebook clone but only for gay people

The guy in your story is a Grade-A psychopath.
I used to have a friend to who didn't do well academically, but I respected him. I never focused on his negative qualities. However, I eventually learned how shitty of a person he was. He was extremely insecure. One time, he got mad when he saw me touch-type because he couldn't do it himself. He would often make jokes about me. If I didn't like those jokes, he would say I didn't get his "sarcasm". I helped him do some soldering for some component for his PS2 once. When his PS2 stopped working, he blamed it on me, even though I only soldered some wires on a small circuit that wasn't even part of the PS2 and had warned him of possible heat damage. He completely overlooked the fact that I was the only person in the small electronics class (which he was part of) in my HS who assembled the robot kits successfully. It got worst when he likened himself to a leader (fan of Steve Jobs) and started giving me advice on stuff he knew nothing about, including programming and woodworking. He was so full of himself!

Sounds like a future project manager desu senpai

you aren't going to let this continue, are you? jesus christ, grow a spine and beat that asshole up
Michael Flores
This person will most likely be the same guy who later on has a plethora of Linkedin positions since for each job he takes, he will probably only stick around for 6-12 months.
This is partly because, if he is how you describe him to be, he's most likely a narcissist and narcs do this shit.
Secondly, people will realise his BS or/and he'll move up in the office hierarchy quickly, fulfilling his narc requirements of social dominance.
Just focus on yourself and create something of value, not a smokescreen like what he's trying to create. It'll be much better in the long run.
>Sounds like a future project manager desu senpai I know a project manager who fits this description to the T :^)
Brayden Fisher
Yeah no, all these fakers can do alright in life but coworkers WILL catch on to their shit There was a woman at my old job who knew nothing about the job and survived only by throwing buzzwords around and having "people" skills. Eventually she was given a new project in which she failed hard because she obviously did not have the skills needed and was sacked
Jace Barnes
He can transition to a management position where technical skills are not required, but taking credit for the work of others is advantageous and bullying underlings into submission and lower wages, is.
CEO Lawyer Media (TV/radio) Salesperson Surgeon Journalist Police officer Clergy Chef Civil servant
Daniel Davis
And nobody even asked the IdeaGuy some basic question to humiliate him for his lack of knowledge?
Damn, your club has is comprised of pathetic weaklings.

Jace White
Actually i do that all the time now I used to refrain from doing that before because its kind of mean, no point in making unnecessary enemies, but i enjoy doing it now with my friends now that we know how big of a piece of shit he is Shitty people deserve shitty treatment, its really fun to ask him technical questions in front of professors that he tries to brush off. If pushed, he spews random bullshit that makes no sense, an absolute joy to hear his ramblings
Jaxon Wright
You can put software architect in there as well. They pretend everything is alright despite knowing full well of the problems and keeping everyone in the dark. When they quit the company for better opportunities, they leave a huge mess behind while taking a lion's share of the credit for developing the software.
Isaiah Thomas
I just walked away from a business opportunity because the project has been overtaken by a psychopath shortly before I almost joined. If they want me back, I won't lift a finger without bulletproof contracts drafted by my lawyer. That's generally a good idea anyway.
Anthony Green
Intriguing. I wonder if there is a similar list for autism in the workplace. There is supposedly a lot of autism among patent attorneys, which is a very different group from lawyers.
t. Patent attorney
Isaiah Reyes
>Man i hate people like this
I don't understand, are you jealous of his social skills or the fact that he is trying to rise quicker because he doesn't want to fuck his brains like you always will along with other nolifers in your small fagget club?
Easton Reed
>! I have already accepted you newfriends are going to be here forever, like how the newfriends of old always have, but please fucking lurk more and adhere to standards. First point: stop fucking using exclamation points. Only literal boomers (not the 30 year old ones) and literal underaged faggots use exclamation points. USE FUCKING CAPS
Jace Jackson
The widespread disregard for the vocative comma is a much worse problem. Examples: >Nice blog my man Correct: "Nice blog, my man." >Wew lad Correct: "Wew, lad."
Brayden Thompson
Who's this whore?
James Martin
>, he would say I didn't get his "sarcasm".
heard that one before and now i consider the following: is there any value to the "sarcastic" comment, some art to it, an insight, does it playfully defend an interesting set of values and views on things that have some depth... if not it might just be a bitch comment, and the person who said it is not a sarcastic person but just a bitch.
Ryan Clark
not your private blog

Thats fucking fine. The disuse of the exclamation point had been in place since the BBS era

Glad a Jow Forums expert finally showed up to tell us how to write properly! Oops, i used one, sorry oh wise one, please dont call me a boomer.

You're describing Chad

>It got worst when he likened himself to a leader (fan of Steve Jobs) Steve was literally like this so I guess he's not far off
Lucas Sullivan
unironically this, and no, it's not boomers who use exclamation marks, it's actually underage/ERP/roleplayers or super autists who use exclamation marks
actual boomers type like this: "you are kidding me....what is this meant to do..."
Ian Sanchez
I think you're looking too hard into things that aren't important, user. If the disdain for boomers/autists/roleplayers is so strong that exclamation marks wind you up, you need to go out and get some fresh air.
Austin Evans
why are you projecting your autism and lack of social life unto me?
Samuel Price
Can't tell if meta-meta-meta-shitposting or serious
Nah, Chad comes and takes what he wants whether you like it or not.
Xavier Allen
Yeah you are, you can't accept the fact that people associate underage faggots, spastics and weirdos with unnecessary exclamation marks.
David Smith
Sad!

No i accept it, but i also find it funny (and kinda sad)

sarcasm is often bitchy because in the current social climate sort of teaches people to be self-absorbed and detached at a very fundamental level. You can sort of see the same thing in modern day comedians vs old timers like Fred Allen, or even Norm MacDonald. Most young cunts will get to the punchline and almost imperceptibly sort of "wait for praise" if you know what I mean. It's this very slight sort of 'we all know I'm being ironic so just get to worshipping me' tinge to their delivery. pseduo-ironic deadpan facetiousness is where it's at. Or sincerity.
Leo Parker
Except that psychopathy is not synonymous with being retarded. You really think a bunch of morons would make it as CEOs, lawyers or surgeons?
Also, medical school will probably turn you into a psychopath if you aren't one.
Henry Ortiz
Akane Tsunemori from Psycho Pass. Pretty sure this scene is from season 2 which is not very good.
Parker Wilson
It's not hard. Go pick a project from one of the "roll to pick a project" threads and work on it.
Joshua Allen
You're upset because this person is succeeding by networking without having any technical skills. On the bright side, you have technical skills. Work on your interpersonal skills and surpass this idiot.
Wyatt Cook
I hate people like him because they're lazy fucks that drown as soon as they have to swim on their own. But I really, really hate spineless fucks like you OP. The obsequious bent-necks of the world who enable fags like him to walk all over you. Look how mad you are and look at how you STILL couldn't advocate for yourself, even when he's blatantly profiting from plagiarizing your fellows' work. Fuck him, and fuck you.
Caleb Williams
I think we found the guy

Adam Anderson
faker's teammates shat the bed really hard this season, hope they all get fired next season. he doesn't deserve this
If the sarcastic comments are directed against other people most of the time, then there's no value except for person making the comments because they're just using it to put other people down and feel better about themselves. This is especially true if they can't handle similar comments against them.

I rarely see people use all caps online. Only reason I see why people are against punctuation marks is because they're more difficult to type on a smartphone and disrupts the flow.

All you have to do after him showing off to a professor using your project is to say: >yeah, this weirdo pretends to do shit but everyone here knows he does nothing. Ask him something technical, he won't have a good answer. Anyway this is my project, and he has nothing to do with it.
Wow, so hard.
Nathan Baker
