During yesterday’s team meeting myboss announced that *I* am heading up groups 28/29. what?!? I thought “shegeek#3″ was doing them! and he says “no, i need someone who’s here during the day same time I am” Well great, i’m thinking to myself “shegeek#3″ is going to be kinda pissed about this… heck, i would be! she was so excited about it. I’ve done this before it’s not a big deal so i couldn’t care less either way except now my workload seems to have doubled. …and how can someone change their mind 3 times about who will head up an important group?
So today i got absolutely nothing done with respect to this thing. Everytime I’d change desktops to begin hammering at them either the phone would ring, or a server would break, or a coworker would ask me a question, or a high priority ids case would come in. today we had a doozy with a couple customers getting assigned .255 ip’s. i’ve never seen that one before! …anyway, since i stay up so late anyway, i’m going to do a little work on the groups from home. [ This is stuff "shegeek#3" could be doing during third, don't you think? ]
…but I’ll just shut my trap and do as I’m told.
i knew it was coming. Ex boss told me long time ago when he was still the manager it would be impossible for me to do a group build on 3rd shift. When current boss gave it to me, he said someone was going to have work on it during the day, but i could do the grunt work at night. I knew he would take it away. Its not uncommon for current boss to blow smoke … its ok, i’m more than used to current boss and his “surprises” . Surprised he told everyone else before me but, nonetheless, not surprised he did it.
Reply to lizzieandjenniwell i’m glad you’re not too upset but i would rather have been told before the meeting so i wouldn’t look like a complete ignoramous in there. i mean.. i’m sure i had a confused look on my face. what a dweeb
