My line manager is driving me nuts and almost had me in tears of frustration today for no good reason. The woman is majorly anal retentive and I’m thinking about starting a collection around the office to get her a few hours of therapy. When I send out info to customers they all get the same letter, only the name and address changes, so what is the point of saving ever damn letter into a folder on the computer so she can check each one? Is she afraid I’m going to get the address wrong? Maybe screw the spelling up somewhere? As it is, the addresses and info get logged in a spreadsheet, so why create more unnecessary work?
I’m also sick and tired of taking over jobs that are supposed to be done by ppl getting more money than me. It’s all very well stepping in when someone is ill and there is a staffing crisis, but when there are higher paid staff members sitting on their asses doing nothing, it kinda gets to you after a while. The woman just does not seem to grasp the concept that it is not fair to expect us to do these jobs for nothing extra. It isn’t about the money at all - but the principle behind it. She wants us to be able to do each other’s job which would be fine if we were all the same grade and treated with the same respect.
