Bosses from hell - Saga continued.........
2nd Boss was on course yesterday and gave me and Su a quiz to do to determine our behavioral patterns when he got back. In the end, he took the opportunity to allude that I am too detailed in my work, a pet complaint of his. Details is an inherent requirement of my job! If I am not detailed enough and they subsequently ask a question which I did not look into, I will get hell for not being thorough enough. So, tell me, what am I supposed to do? I lose out both ways. And the bastard must have told tales about this to Boss. Problem with the whole department is, the Bosses do not come outright and tell you where you have gone wrong and what you can do to improve your work, but they make backhanded criticisms as such.
2nd Boss also just won the 4D (form of lottery) and promised to give me and Su a lunchtime treat next week. Sure, he can be nice in his own ways but I just cannot stand the way he handles work matters. So unpro(fessional)! And it is so peaceful in the office without him yesterday. He loves to talk loudly on the phone when it's regarding work so that Boss can hear in her room. Being that Su and I share and open space office with him, it's rather annoying and distracting when we need to concentrate on our work.
