If you really have an open-door policy, you should refrain from threatening anyone who disagrees with your idiotic decisions. When we sent you emails disagreeing with your decision to eliminate a vital position in our unit, you should not have responded, “Don’t get involved in letter-writing campaigns. Those are the kinds of things that can be printed out and kept in a file somewhere.”

No one is buying your “genial father-figure” act. You are a lecherous toad and we all know it.

How do you expect us to create all your shiny, high-tech web crap with ancient computers and no software?

WHY ARE YOU SUCH A MORON?
I had my review today and I so wanted to state my facts in my earlier post. Especially when I got called on the carpet for being late or taking time to go to the dentist/doctor.
But I didn’t say anything. I didn’t want to come across like a whiny kid “Well you let so and so do this”

Please stop speaking to me as though I were a brain-damaged kindergartener. No, I don’t have a background in the same field you do, but you knew that when you hired me. In fact, my background was one of the reasons you hired me. So don’t get condescending on my butt when I don’t know lingo from your specific academic area.

I am fluent in English. I am a pretty skilled writer in English. English is my native language, and I am, after all, college educated. Please stop picking at every single word I choose to incorporate in the dreadful paragraphs of total crap I churn out for you. I am especially appreciative of the times you “correct” terms that you simply don’t understand, or of the times you tell me to take out a word, even if I can’t express an important concept without it, just because you don’t know what it means, although the target audience for my writing does (or should.) Sentences with more than one clause are not “too long (confusing!) to understand.” Oh, and one more pet peeve–the abbreviation “i.e.” exists as standard English and means something different from “e.g.” I didn’t just make it up. Nitpicking at me and criticizing me for knowing more than you do about my subject leads to nothing but wasted time and lousy writing.

This one goes out not only to my boss, but to everyone else in the office as well–STOP WITH THE CUTSEY CRAP!!! If I have to see one more “I wuv oo” bear, or big-eyed Precious Moments doll with affirmation glurge on it, I’m going to puke. And please don’t jam my work e-mail account with smarmy ick, either–I have enough to put up with while I’m here.

Just because you have your own business on the side doesn’t give you license to collect 8 hours pay when only being on site for 2 hours. Especially when you have banned my answering calls for other clients despite the terms of my contract explicitly stating that I am free to do so.
-
Your girlfriend calling does not qualify as an emergency.
-
I am the SysAdmin/Analyst/Help Desk, not your secretary.
-
Just because your a procrastinator doesn’t mean you can put a project off until a week before it was due thenn expect the rest of the team to work 16 hour days to finish it while you disappear to Turkey for 3 weeks.

There is a difference between taking a sick day and playing golf. if you’re going to lie to me and subsequentally have me lying for you at least have the brains to not come in the next day and discuss the previous days golf game on the phone while I’m in the office.
I think I’ll stop there.

When I ask a question, please do not walk away, come back when I am dealing with a customer, and then while interupting, still not answer me.
-
I was hired to do a specific job. I am doing it well. My direct superviser tells me this. Please do not infer that I am not.
(or is that imply?) -
Do not give me three jobs to do with time to do only one. I am capable of doing so a few times but it is getting old quick.
-
The schedule should be out on Wednesday of the week before it goes in to effect. Friday is not Wednrsday.
I am not a mind reader. Granted, I can guess what you want with about a 75% accuracy rate, but it’s that other 25% I worry about.
I realize things change often where we’re at, but you need to keep me informed immediately when something changes.
Just because I felt like I was burning out with working 60-70 hour weeks doesn’t mean I can’t do my job at all. There’s a reason why people work 40 hour weeks–most people like to have lives outside of work, too. I know you do.
I work inside your home, which means I work under the same roof where your baby resides. Please understand that when she’s having a very bad day and is constantly crying, I have no desire to stay any minute longer than is absolutely necessary. Don’t get me wrong, I love that baby, but I don’t need to be subjected to her screaming for hours on end when I need to be working.
When one person screws up, don’t yell at the entire crew. It lowers morale. Considering that you need the crew to care about what they’re doing, a low morale is the last thing you want.

*You are not the first woman in history to become pregnant and continue to work during their pregnancy. This is something you pissed and moaned about wanting to happen for several years… now DEAL WITH IT !!! It is not a license to be a Royal Bitch to everyone.
If the ‘company’ is having cashflow problems, and you are the sole proprietor, PLEASE do not ask me to wait for my money while you and your scumball husband go to Cozumel, or while you go to help pick out his Harley.
if you do, please be aware that all the people you’ve told what a hard time you’re having financially will NOT believe you, and WILL be unhappy when you don’t pay them the money you owe them.
And since i’ve been running your business twice as well as you, please don’t come in and mess up my cost of product ratio with your impulse purchasing and your incessant home decorating purchases out of the business account.
