Are we gonna talk about the bit where Kanye approved of Tyga "getting in early" with Kylie?
I read this on the way to work and I damn near shouted "FUCK YEAH!" at your original comment. I don't know you, but I am fucking proud of you and humbled.
Did you even bother to read what she wrote before you jumped right in?
Your method is a valid option that may or may not work (and may backfire horribly) just like her method of going to HR may or may not work (or may backfire horribly) depending on the temperament of the coworker, how HR functions at her work, and whether or not her boss inexplicably favors this douche.
Why is it her responsibility to cajole him to do his damn job? He is her peer, not her subordinate.
You are such a one trick pony.
Its not her job to tell some fuckwit to do their job and pull their weight.
Way to go. I work with a male co-worker and we do the same job but out of the two of us I am the one that got asked to cover the reception desk twice a month during lunch hour.

People should not need a chore wheel to realize that sometimes its their turn to take out the garbage.
This resolution is fabulous. So happy you were able to speak up and get rid of the dead weight!

Human beings over the age of 12 should know trash needs to be taken out, the fridge needs to be cleaned occasionally and stuff needs to be cleaned out. It should not be his co-workers' job to talk to him.
