We once had a new guy start who was kinda like this, but also a dick with it. On his first day he smashed into a job that some of our older guys usually did, easily managing to knock it out in 2/3 of the time usually allotted.
I pointed out that all he really did was make the older guys look bad.
He went and complained to the management about me.
I mean, yeah, but on this occasion it wouldn’t have made a difference. The management knew what the job took to complete and weren’t riding us to kill ourselves over it. This lad wanted to prove he was The Shit, when mostly he was just a shit.
