i’m gonna need them because i’m waist deep in bullshit! grrrrr!
when i began working for this small company i was so relieved to find that there wasn’t nearly as much bs floating around. and we were able to actually get a little work done. then we were bought by a HUGE company. so far we’ve still been operating like a small company for the most part. but now, now it’s starting to get ugly. i’m in the middle of wasting HOURS UPON HOURS creating an email. an email to restate the things i’ve already talked about with a person from our sister company at least 3 times. the fact that i’ve already talked to him isn’t what’s pissing me off. it’s that the VPs are kinda’ lording over the entire thing now. i understand them wanting to know what’s going on. i’m fine with that. i’ll give you as many updates as you want. the bs is that they want things spelled out in a certain way to send an email to the person i’ve been dealing with. which is silly because WE’VE ALREADY HAD THIS CONVERSATION! 3 TIMES! and the part that made my blood boil this morning was the numerous requests to re-word the email. “no blaming. no observations.” etc, etc. WTF?!? so now i’ve spent a total of 3 F-IN days rewriting this damn email (of things i’ve already told him) so it meets the standards of the VPs. they keep coming back with re framing suggestions. IF YOU WANT IT TO SAY THAT WHY DON’T YOU JUST WRITE IT?!? i’ve given you all the details you need! i’m not a mind reader! and i can’t stand watering things down with niceties. i just want to state the facts and get the damn job done. instead we spend calls and emails trying to nicely say that someone else f-ed up. why?! i get professionalism. but this isn’t it. this is political bs. and VPs wanting to feel like they’re being impartial but they’re really just making the process painful and less likely to get resolved in any sort of short time frame. i’m over it. and what i find hilarious is that this all started because someone started pointing the finger at us, but we’re not allowed to point out that they’re not innocent themselves. i can’t stand this kinda’ shit.
is there ANY place out there where you can just do your f-in job?!?
(oh yah, and L arrives today so i’ll be back on monday! have a great weekend everybody!!)
~ today i learned… that i’d rather buy new shower liners than take the time to clean the current ones… i’m THAT lazy (and they’re only like $3… my time it worth SO much more than that) ~
