I did nothing to this guy, I mean literally nothing. I never did anything to intentionally get on his nerves, but he did that to me. If he didn't like me just because of who I am, then that's some fucking nonsense.

On the thread about indoctrination the other day, you pointed out that for some people, being hateful is a way to mitigate their own pain.
I think this is very true. We see it all the time.
I don't know about the guy at your job, of course, but the habit of puffing oneself up by treating others badly is extremely common. It's possible you were just useful as a way for him to do that.

It's also possible that the poor treatment he received (assuming his tale of woe is true) was the result of him being a complete and total great whirling arsefardle.

Yeah but see, here's the thing, I might be a complete and total great whirling arsefardle, I'm not saying I'm not. But I didn't act like I was one, at my job. So this dude had no reason to treat me poorly.

It isn’t possible for great whirling arsefardles not to act like great whirling arsefardles. That’s the primary feature of great whirling arsefardleness.

Every time I've resigned I already had the next gig locked up. Part of adulting.
