Three More Characters at Work

There are people at work that seem to fit into categories of workers. They exist at every company, and you know them, but you never put a name to them. Well have no fear, the VHRG is here to identify three more...

Career in Neutral

This person has a job that is semi-important and 100% easy. But the job itself sucks. Everyone at your company knows it sucks. And the person doesn't seem to either realize it or care. It's easy, so they're happy. In fact, you could leave your company, and come back fifteen years later, and the person is still sitting at the same desk, doing the same job. They have no idea that their job sucks, and is going no where. And they might not care.

Something they'd say
I've been dealing with problems like that for 15 years. Don't worry, the new paper clips will be here tomorrow.

Unimportant-Important Guy
They're job isn't important. No, not for the purposes of the post, it's just not important in general. But don't tell this employee that. To them it's crucial to the survival of the company... NAY... THE HUMAN RACE! This is why they are so mad that you moved the meeting with the accounting team from the third floor to the fourth floor without telling them. Even though they weren't invited to the meeting. This person also hangs out with as many managers as possible, important types hang out with important types, you know.

Something They'd Say
Why wasn't I notified that the meeting is being moved until tomorrow?!?!?! What I'm I going to do with all of the coffee I brewed for it? It doesn't drink itself!

Pop-Culture Princess
To be clear, she has no life of her own. She tapes award shows and red carpet things to see what people are wearing. She watches entertainment news shows like men what SportsCenter. She cried when Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston broke up. And she refers to Angelina Jolie as "hussey."
Something They'd Say
Who did you vote for? O-who-ma? No, no! On American Idol!!!
