And BAM!

Director just called me. VP had him written up today for my little project not getting done before start of business today.

I put the change control in for 5PM today, and she made promises to the customer that we would get the SOW done prior to 8am (I implemented at 10am this morning).

Problem is that she didn't tell myself nor my director anything until 7am about this promise. PLUS she approved the change control for 5pm today on Friday.

Best part is that it's a 1st and final warning to by director.

Why is that a bam, I thought you wanted the VP gone not the director? Or is this the 'final proof'?

I do!
Because she clearly is losing it and fucked up. With clear documentation on the work to be done and time to be completed that she approved, she writes up my director for...nothing. He called to laugh at this basically.

Yeah she sounds like a massive cunt. Insecure, massive, cunt.

I used to have a boss like her, micromanaging shit that she had no idea of how it works (I do the IT, she's ... hell I have no idea what real qualifications she even has, other than being a dick towards people and then taking the victim role. She is our HR now).

Glad I escaped from under her. Talking to coworkers who still have to report to her and she's still doing the same thing.

Cover your bases Brahma, but from what I gather you already have done that. Good luck.

So how is that your director's fault if she made the commit?

Edit: Oops, didn't see the next page when I replied. Never mind.

Maybe she's got a master's degree in music composition?
