...After reviewing the man's bachground(in his mid-40s;still lives at home with Dad;greatest goal in life is to have every super hero DVD he can get his hands on;also WORSHIPS said super heroes);his interaction with others ;including me
Constant whining and complaining about anything and everything;"GIMME;GIMME;GIMME";ITS MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY;I DONT GIVE A $%^&";I AM THE MAN;when he enters a room;he shouts out good and loud:"ALL RISE-THE MAN HAS ARRIVED";"THE MAN HAS 4 GIRLFRIENDS-WHAT A MAN I AM!"... Ad infinitum,Ad nauseum...I have revised my diagnosis as follows:IMMATURE-ITIS...HE HASNT GROWN UP YET...The reason for my revision?I find myself talking to him like I used to talk to my children-and;I find myself talking to him and telling him what my mother used to tell me.."YOU WILL APPRECIATE IT MORE IF YOU BUY IT (WHATEVER IT IS) YOURSELF;INSTEAD OF HAVING IT GIVEN TO YOU"...
"HAVEN'T YOU HEARD ITS VERY RUDE TO ASK SOMEONE FOR SOMETHING THEY HAVE THAT YOU WANT?"As for his comment for taking another man's wife;I think he just said that to look "cool"...He doesn't have the least idea the implications of that statement...I feel kinda sorry for him;not having the right role model in his life...SO;I guess it is up to me to show him a good example...Problem is:I have never dealt with a self-centered kid in his 40's...do any of my colleagues out there have any experience dealing with this?I feel like Im raising a child all over again...Nobody at work likes him much;and I gotta admit-He can be SO irritating..This is the ages-old good vs.evil struggle-Hopefully;I will rub off on him!!...
