In fact the very biggest and most controlling member of the 'Hare' family is now his father in-law,
The gal he married is his stepdaughter.
He is disliked by all.
He is arrogant, he comes in late, leaves early and refuses to help out with the tedious duties
that we all have to take part in.
He can't or won't learn the system on the computers.
It's beneath him.
Everything is beneath him
We listen to him introduce himself at the door to people like this;
" Hello, welcome to Hares. And if you are interested in anything, just remember,
I can get you the very best prices.
Remember, I am in the Hare family".
Anyway,
as you might imagine
we are just waiting for Bernard Buttwipe to bury himself.
Then a friend of mine calls me into her office to tell me this-
One of the Hare's customers that had purchased 10K worth of furniture at the Palm Beach showroom
decided to come into the Boca Raton store (where I work) to show a friend what they had purchased.
Bernard greeted them at the door and ......
Soon after that they drove very quickly back to the Palm Beach store.
When this customer arrived
they went straight in and directly to the store manager.
Fuming.
Where they proceeded to tell the manager that they met a man in the Boca store
named Bernard Hare or that he was in the Hare family...
Anyway this man suggested that I cancel the order and that he could get me much better prices.
In my book
This IS STEALING!
But I was at work.
Trying to sell.
I couldn't get his shitty, shitty behavior out of my head.
His mere presence is toxic.
And now he has it in his head that he wants an office in the design department.
That's where I live and breath.
I will die.
He spies on the sales people.
He takes sneak pictures of people not wearing their jackets,
putting their feet up in their offices, or whatever else they could be doing wrong...
I don't get him.
And he mocks the real 'Hare' who is the niece of the 'Big Hare'
and my boss who I have become very fond of.
I just get this sleazy vibe, a treacherous vibe when ever I am near him or talk to him.
I try to stay clear of him-
without having any eye contact.
Or as little as possible.
I don't know, I just know that when his mouth is moving -
he is lying.
He was caught doing something that he was not supposed to be doing,
He tried to get out of trouble by blaming his behavior on someone else.
Guess who that was?
You got it!
ME!
I wasn't even in the building at the time!!!!
I was starting to feel really naughty-mischievous.
I thought to myself.....
there are always dead cockroaches laying around and upside down
in this place.
It was about time to close the store,
it was my 'Friday' (but really a Wednesday night)
I just wanted to find one.
Just one.
I felt the least I could do would be to put a roach in his business card box.
But while removing my binoculars, and taking off my cockroach safari suit...
I just shook my head and started to laugh out loud.
By the 5th day of work every week I go a bit mad.
You know we can imagine anything at all
as long as we do not act on it.
I can dream.
Can't I?
but just in case.....
i think i will have my head checked out.
