Thread regarding Fidelity Investments layoffs

Why can’t this stupid id--t good for nothing SM just get laid off?

This is a post regarding a specific je-k I have to see every damn day I go into the office.

I see this scrum master who literally says he took the role just to do nothing all day. He laughs at me since I’m a software engineer, saying stuff like “haha I make more money than you to do less work”. Has a snarky attitude. Just walks in like he owns the place. This is someone who made a reputation for himself for being a lazy person. People on his own team call him a slacker often. He’d literally put his feet up on the desk he’d sit at.

I can’t say too much because he belittles me in front of other people, so I can’t say too much without giving away who this is. But I doubt anyone knows this. Every day when he’s at cafeteria, he order a T bone steak, and walks back to his desk with a styrofoam tray that has the said T bone steak. I used to be able to walk away from my laptop when my workload wasn’t too much. Once every 2 or 3 months for that time period that my work was easier, I’d come back to my desk, and guess what I’d see on my desk? An eaten out of styrofoam tray, with a gnawed on bone of a T bone steak inside of it.

He doesn’t do it anymore so I don’t think I can report it to anyone. I thought about reporting every time he did that or taking pictures for evidence. But I was always afraid of “snitching” or being seen as a problem for reporting the bullying. So, I just dealt with it. I don’t leave my desk at Fidelity (due to workload). I don’t want him to speak with me but he acts like everything is ok and he’s the best thing to ever grace this company. I’m one of the only people that are fine with myself coming into an office for RTO, but he made it so insufferable.

He’s a scrumbag. Why can’t he just get laid off? I thought he was surely gonna be gone but he’s still here. He’s a damn cockroach. Better yet, why can’t I get laid off so I can be free and find another job while getting severance pay? Why can’t we just see him lose the job where he does literally nothing all day, or get demoted to a role where he makes even less money, and realizes he’s sc--wed himself.

I know we have many people who are lazy at Fidelity, prior to the sheer burnout from RTO. But how many people here are THAT level of crude? Smh.

Upping the food quality is such a low cost way to make morale a little bit better, but they are he-l bent on driving anybody who can to quit

Styrofoam?

Anyway, you might not get severance, but you can definitely get a different job somewhere else. What's stopping you?

Answer: Your own victim mentality.

In the meantime, don't worry about that guy. He'll reap what he's sowing. Eventually all arrogant meanies get their comeuppance, and it can happen from the most unexpected circumstances, none of which you have anything to do with, what so ever.

Life's funny that way!
