When I was working at my previous corporate job my old boss thought I was an incompetent piece of shit and pretty much a good for nothing druggie . I had long hair and pretty much quiet quit years before because it was absolutely horrible to work there but it was close to my apartment and it paid well. We had a road race around campus and I signed up for it because why the fuck not. So the race starts and I hit it. It was a 5K and I finished 4th out of everybody. It was probably around 250 people. The boss was flabbergasted. His administrative Assistant looked at me and said "wow I can't believe you just did that". And my snarky reply was "yeah can you believe it? I might look like a bum but I'm actually in really good shape". She didn't know what to say to that. After that he treated me with a lot more respect because he could say that his department has athletes in it (another guy in our department finished second). I pretty much just thought 'fuck you, you piece of shit, leave me alone'. Then I proceeded to remain quiet quit for another 2 years before I left. Don't get me wrong, I did my job and did it well but I fucking hated everybody there except for my immediate department and two admins.

That is a good story. Always fun to be more capable than you look too.

Yeah I don't do the best job not coming across as one. I think users here are fairly savvy regarding opsec but I'll try to be careful to add a warning to not overshare next time. But I like how this forum is free and people are sincere and that there's good moderation.

I had a boss who wasn't impressed by anything and always thought I was a dumbass for some reason. I worked hard and produced a lot but there was some block in his brain that prevented him from appreciating it. It wasn't until the day I turned in my resignation that all of a sudden I was radically appreciated and I should stay and what can we do and so on.

Think maybe they always expected to fire me, not for me to leave. I know they talked about it.

There's got to be a psychological name for this.

One of my friends resigned like you did but right after taking a long vacation where unused vacation was not paid out. The reports from the office were that the asshole boss was fuming and losing control, haha. I was so proud of him.

I do it all the time, it's my thing. I set people up for it constantly. I feed people a image, when I have them figured out, and when it counts, I do the exact opposite with perfect timing for maximum effect.

It's hard not to smile and make it look like nothing when people are staring with astonishment. If you do it right, you can make people cry.

My favorite way to do this is if people make an assumption or say something about me, stay silent like they got me when really I don't care enough to correct them. Then they watch me do it and they noticed I didn't care enough to correct them. I prefer to be around people worthy of respect but when it cannot be avoided it's still a bonus to watch them feel inadequate. I have never made one cry though, so you are ahead of my game.

Haha I said in 2015 that there was HIV hybridization, racially targeted bioweapon, that would be presented to the world simply as coronavirus, and that the vaccine would be a genocide, masks would be mandated, big tech would suppress HCQ, the COVID loans would absorb complete economic control, and quite a few other coincidences.

I was laughed out of the room.
