So my team lead is retiring this December maybe and her backup doesn't know how to do the job nor does he know how to do the job he already has and all he does is ride around all day doing fuck all and not doing his job and everybody hates him.

AITA if I undermine him and ask my team lead to train me to do her job and try to shoot for her position when she retires?

Go for it!

I don't know about the undermining part but asking your team lead if you have a decent shot at her job is a very good idea. If she says yes or even maybe, ask her to train you. Undermining someone at work can blow up in your face very easily.

Assuming Kannap has the skills, otherwise he's going to be in over his head. He shouldn't be afraid of the increased responsibilities that come with the function.

Undermine probably wasn't the right word lol. I mentioned it to my team lead today and she encouraged me and said she didn't believe in the slightest that the other guy would get the job.

Gotta talk to my supervisor about it, the training would be very open and everybody in the department would know/see I'm training to learn her job - no undermining/secret behavior.

Well, that's a different story! Definitely go for it. We'll write you a recommendation, too, me, Heloin, Nana ... even Ethel.

I’ll write the fuck out of a recommendation letter!

What could be a more powerful recommendation then that?

To whom it may concern:

Kannap is a fellow of fine feather, willing to stick his neck out to get things done. With his long spindly legs and spiked claw, Kannap is not afraid to put his foot down to get the job done. While able.to function alone he does prefer to run with the herd, increasing their distance is his specialty.

I read some of my old forum posts and omg I was edgy back then.

[Valrifell]

Realizing that friend who didn't like The Shape of Water because he couldn't get past romance with fish person has the same mindset as the villain of that film.

Huh.

I was in highschool (I think) at the time and was pretending to be American.

Is it weird that I love being able to have my own space rn (roommates are all gone, so I have the dorm to myself) but I also feel lonely and wish they were back? '

Like I love having my own sort of space but I also miss having people here

Everyone has their own brands of shame. Mine's in the form of my Facebook posts when social networks are all the rage then.

I'm just kinda glad that I made this nation when I was 20 (back in 2015)... and now I can only think about the fact that I am only 5 years away from being 30...

I can totally relate. I got evicted as part of the quarantine measures (I wasn't infected; they just need my room to make space for people), and now I got a single room.

I miss talking to my roommates, but now I got a piece of my own!

Fabricate a claim, challenge the backup to a duel or lure him to a tavern that you've undermined with explosive manure.

Unfortunately the farmer who provided the manure has reveled Kannap's name.

And in some cases... The farmer indeed does give you shit.

My early years there (around 2012, I guess) were embarrasing, because I was trying so hard to become anything but Indonesian

Indeed. You used to market yourself as someone a lot more feminine in the distant past, for example.

As long as it was for purely chaste reasons, that is acceptable.

Don't worry, currently my mood is being influenced by weeks of storm and rain. But who knows what the future may bring?
