 Posted: 02/06/06 - 13:58 Post subject: don't ask for email updates if your not going to read them!!
my boss asks me to send her an email update this morning, i did and it was very detailed and easy to read...
she just turns to me (she sits next to me) and says...'so did soandso do any work on this project'
I said: Yes, it's all in the email I sent to you this morning and turned away...
she does this all the effing time, it drives me nuts!
sigh.
sorry, needed to vent...

clearly the smart people need to unite and form one massive organization... then again, if all that was left were stupid people to negotiate with and sell to - that might be worse.

"excellent people skills" rough translation: the ability to deal with stupid people and not get agitated.
i love customer service and working with people. i have a lot of patience - but i can't handle superiors that don't know what they are doing (unless there's a reason for them to not know).
