The Odd One Out

I realise there are so many parasites in the workplace. People who would've spent years in the system but never want to invest their time in it either due to lack of aptitude or of energy. They instead take shortcuts, go to people who think they need to own up everything and get their work done. The worst part about them is that they give you a false or elevated sense of your own capabilities.

One of my peers is moving out. He was my punching bag for long; silent punching, that is. He took great pleasure in telling me that I joined the module before him, as if it was an excuse to do nothing. There are occasions I've felt frustrated with my boss on account of this guy and whenever I felt guilty about working from home, I thought of him and felt better. So there is now going to be an odd sense of loss.
