My boss is a annoying control freak
When we had our weekly meeting last week she had a mini-meltdown about people calling off. Apparently, some people have just been leaving her a voice mail which she’s not happy about. I totally understand though. If you call anyone and get voicemail, it could mean that they’re not in the office for the day and no one would know where you’re at for the day.
Now, however, she’s decided that it’s not good enough to call a workleader or our “co-manager”. She wants us to call her too. Imo that’s overkill. Why do I need to speak to 50-11 people just to call off? As long as I talk to one person why isn’t that good enough. Can’t that person just relay the message?
Then today she had a hissy fit because she decided we need a “jump start” meeting every morning. Those types of meetings can be helpful if you have daily goals or have visitors, etc. They totally don’t apply in our area. Anyway, no one had anything to say because we don’t think the meetings are productive. So she got mad and literally stormed out of the meeting. Wow! Really?!?! So unprofessional.
My boss is just miserable and she’s trying to beat us all down to her level of misery. Well it’s not gonna work in my case. I’m just gonna let her roll off my back and keep it movin’.
