You know who I hate more than some people?

Myself, for putting up with them.

There are seniors above me who work in the same office/company I work with, and some of them are absolute, total assholes. But to get my own work done through/with them, it becomes important to endure their presences in everyday office life. Not only that, but to sit in front of them and listen to them brag, boast and act all "superior than the entire human race." Absolutely hate that kind of attitude, but got to just sit back with a false smile and listen to all that bullshit.

Enduring an asshole who is a superior, and enduring an asshole who is a senior, are totally different experiences. The superior is someone who will never change his attitude, but at least he's temporary. In 2-3 years time, he's liable to get transferred to another Branch.
But, the senior shares the same position as you, but has a lead of 18-20 years in experience, and WONT be moving out of the office till he retires. Yes, he gets a lot of your pending work done through a simple phonecall, but he can be a total dick the rest of the time. Even to you.

And you cannot risk calling them off over anything, because they got their hooks into everything. Some others before me found that out the hard way. Its tough, its unbearable, but it comes with the job.

Many days I return home and think back over the day spent, and moments come flooding back which are either really frustrating, or really exasperating...

Let me tell you, its easier to hate yourself than hate the world.
