Well my coworker has a new QB crush. After expressing doubts about the Packers ability to win with Malik Willis before the Colts game, my coworker is all in on Willis. He's so high on Willis now that he thinks Willis should start over "that piece of shit" Love.

🙃

Seems like your coworker is all emotion and no logic... at least with their pro football

Just remind them

And whatever other Love puns you can think of

Funny. Why do people have to be insulting or condicinding? He can like Willis without insulting Love. He will be wrong but at least have some class dud. (Dropped "e" was intentional. :)

I thought at first he was one of those guys who disliked Love because they picked him over a WR in 2020. Now I'm convinced he's one of those guys who sees the NFL in a similar vein to the NBA. QBs single handily determine whether a team wins or not. The odd thing is that he said he's been a fan of the team when Favre was playing. Feels like he should know better!



Talking to him about Packers and other things, he strikes me as not being particularly intelligent in a book smart or emotional sense:

-Within the first 10 minutes of meeting the guy, he tells me he has 4 kids of his own and pays child support on two of them and would for a third but managed to talk the baby mama out paying child support.
-Thinks it's messed up that we work for Japanese company (Toyota Manufacturing) because Japan bombed Pearl Harbor
-Since he was hired he's been on probation for call ins/missing time which delayed a packet offer from the company (receiving a packet moves an employee moves a person from the probationary status to full team member with a pension, reduced health insurance cost, increased PTO days etc).
-Has struggled with ankle tendonitis for months. Was told by many other coworkers to go up to the onsite health clinic to get it checked out so it would be work related and be given more wiggle room in the future. Instead went to an outside specialist first so the company now considers it a personal issue and expects him to work through it. When he managed to get time off to have it addressed, he only used two weeks instead of the four allotted due to baba mama drama ($$$).
-Blew through all his PTO and call-ins by the end of March. Because his tendonitis bothers him so much, he has to cut his breaks short in order to avoid being late to get back to the line to avoid a corrective action would led to a termination.
-Was overpaid during the period from the end of June to the end of August. Was told by HR how much would be taken out of his checking account and when. Miscalculates when he'd get his next check in his bank account and spends money that he shouldn't have on bills causing him to be a $1000 overdrawn.

To paraphrase the opening monologue  from the movie Layer Cake, he doesn't mean to fuck up, he just does.
