That kinda attitude isn't very becoming of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is more interesting. Hockerty doesn't show up in my Google search at all. I'll see what their delivery times to the UK are like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booted my satellite company last year. Only thing I watched was Sportscenter, WWE Raw, and Seinfeld rerunds. Most of the tv shows they have coming out today are awful.

theJ Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I just got back to work from a two week vacation. Before i left a guy i was working for on a few projects expressed concern that some efforts wouldn't move forward while i was gone. So i did the professional thing, stayed late, prepared all the necessary documents and sent all the emails. I then emailed him with instructions on how to make sure things progressed while i was gone (email was shorter than this post, and basically just told him to follow up with two different people and forward one email). It was 10 minutes worth of work. I get back today. Did he do any of those tasks? Would i be here complaining if he did? I swear, managing projects just amounts to telling people to do their jobs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Director at my company sends a meeting invite to me yesterday. Subject was "<client abbreviation> Upgrade Script>". No email body. No description. No agenda. No nothing. Just that. I get into the meeting, and all of a sudden halfway through I realize this guy just booked me on a project I had no idea about and now he's giving me marching orders without actually telling me I'm on a freaking project. I thought I was just reviewing something for him or something. Now I'm on a project that I have no background about, didn't take notes on and literally zero idea what the overall goal/plan for the project is. And this is in addition to me already being 100% booked for 2 other clients as well. Lovely! If you're a PM and you do this, shame on you. Furthermore, if you send meeting invites without an agenda or description of what's happening in said meeting, shame on you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
