There's a pathological story teller in my workplace. I was growing sick of it so I finally put them to shame today. They started bubbling and babbling and squirming so hard over being called out, and I don't feel an ounce bad about it.

I would love to because it was truly hilarious, but it's too work-specific. Just know they're probably going to keep very quiet for a while, hopefully. Also, the porky was in an area I am known for, and just about everyone who witnessed it knows that.

Their bullshittery is well known. From the ensuing murmurs that went around after, no one ever takes them seriously.
