Office Politics.
Jul. 25th, 2007 01:33 pmMost days I like my job. I'd like it a whole better if I was made permanent instead of a temp (and the office manager in charge of interviews is off on holidays until the 7th now *grrs*), but generally, I like it. Except in cases, like today, where I get caught in the middle of a bunch of office political crap.
*sighs*
Apparently, by asking Esther a question about file naming protocols, I inadvertently stirred a hornet's nest of demarcation issues that had been quietly simmering for a few weeks and got caught in the middle. So now, Esther's lecturing me about why she isn't handling opening and sorting Alvin's files, Wendy's bitching about how Esther didn't do what she was supposed to, and Alvin's wanting everything done by this afternoon.
Me? I'm at lunch. I've done everything I can, anything else can just wait until the meeting with Alvin at 2:15. Seriously, this is fucking ridiculous. Who cares who does the work if it gets done? Hell, I'd do it, only I'm not trained on the computer program
Have I mentioned how stupid I find this sort of crap?
I need distraction. Badly.
