I'll be in and out of here throughout the day. Our division got
reorganized a couple of weeks ago and the tech supervisor of the
functional group I was switched to is a @#$%&@! micromanager.
Yesterday, for example, the @#$%&@! came into my cube a total
of nine times (yes, I was keeping count!)just to
ask how my projects were going. It wouldn't be so bad if he just
asked quickly and left, but this @#$%&@! would stay and ramble
on and on about how he thought a particular aspect of a project
should be done, and kept wanting to know where I was at. I kept
having to steer each conversation towards a conclusion because the
@#$%&@! just wouldn't shut up and leave me to continue
working.
In the future, if I ever miss a project deadline and management
wants to know the reason, I'll just put in my status report that
these little project status update meetings with the @#$%&@!
micromanager took up too much time.
(Of course, I'll leave the "@#$%&@!" out of the status
report.)
Sorry for the Friday rant...
