the workplace narc

be on the lookout
for those who are curious about your personal affairs
at the workplace
be on the lookout for those who are always hanging around you &
other workers, asking questions about things that they can hardly relate to
be on the lookout
for those that leave the warehouse floor often
only to come strolling back with an authority figure ready to dish out punishment &
pink slips
be on the lookout
for those that laugh at the man’s jokes &
who are the first to tell them about their weekend in vivid detail when asked
be on the lookout
for those that are always concerned about the quotas to the point that they themselves hint at what needs to be done to their other coworkers
be on the lookout
for those that come early/stay late, take on extra responsibilities that were not mentioned in the initial interview & who are wearing headphones while working but always seem to be able to chime into any conversation around them whenever they see fit
be on the lookout
for those who get dealt with differently when disciplined, making their reprimand seem ever-so-soft in comparison to the way others are dealt with for the same infractions
be on the lookout
for the narc who roams your own workplace,
slithering in the grass & waiting to sell you down the river,
putting notches in their Dudley Do-Right belt,
stopping at nothing in order to climb up that ladder.
