LUB...no shocker here

My bosses eyes are rolled as he sees me walk into the office.
"What," I demand. He smirks, shakes his head and rolls his eyes.
"What!" I say again, getting fusterated thinking that I may have done something wrong.
He rolls his eyes again.

"[LUB's] dad called in today. Apparently he hurt his back yesterday and can't do any heavy lifting."
I roll my eyes and think to myself 'great, if his back hurts, LUB probably isn't coming in. One less person to change the station when a good song is on, one less person in the car and one less person to complain about the daily task.'

"He's coming in, but make sure that he doesn't do any heavy lifting," rolling his eyes again.

"What, I don't want here," my thoughts are all of a sudden louder then they should be. "We both know that he'll milk his injuries and won't do a damn thing" I say justifying my obvious dislike for the kid and refusing to accept his 'whatever' attitude.

I took my time filling out the paper work. It had to be done becasue the little S.O.B reported it. The day went on, very stressfully, but it went on. The tools that the kids were using became dull and broken with their use and I caught them wasting time throwing stuff at each other more then once. After lunch my boss joined us for a different project. He dislikes LUB as well and yelled at him for something minor.

LUB asked me about it in the car. It became a discussion and I said that him getting mad links back to this morning, but didn't really say why. I should have pulled LUB away after work to explain that the boss is getting annoyed with his constant complaining and injuries, he's annoyed that LUB is always the last person to be ready in the morning and is annoyed with his effort throughout the day. But I don't know how to say that nicely, and lack the desire to spare his pain.

At the end of the day I heard L, mother of LUB bitch about my boss and I. Nothing actually said about us, but I know that LUB had gone straight to his mother to tell her the story asap. And of course, L takes her sons side and babies him. I left the office after hearing her. I'm doing my job and don't feel like I should need to hear the bashing that probably continued and may still be going on.

To L, I say: Stop encouraging his malingering. He's a big boy now and needs to learn to take a job seriously. Be strick with him rather then put the blame on his bosses for his laziness. It doesn't set a good example with how to look at future bosses.

I don't mean to underestimate his pain, but he's been the only one of the four to complain about pain. I think that says something. Alas only 8 days left.
