I will work on it.

I avoid any confrontation because I always cry. I have to work sooo hard to stay on top of my workload, and last week I did 4 hours extra, unpaid, just to keep up, so I'm hardly a slacker.
If I hadn't wanted to finish the job, I wouldn't have put 'Please pass to Snaggles once customer has called' across the front of it.
Will be brave tomorrow and not let her get to me though.

I also haven't had much to say of late.
Had a crappy day at work today. Little office biatch (and wannabe footballers wife) brought a file over to me that clearly said return to me to finish.
She said 'No, I don't mind doing it for you, I was just telling you I would have to log the errors if I do'.
I said, 'Fine, no problem, leave it with me and I'll work it'
She said, 'No, you don't have to...I'm happy to do it for you'.
Meanwhile, I sat there thinking '!!!!!!???' and wondering just how I could have said I would do it SO MANY !!!!!!! TIMES and yet she still heard it as 'I wont do it', and despite it CLEARLY saying return it to me so I could finish it.
:mad:
Snags,
Very clear what she was saying.
'I am a martyr. I am going to do you this ENORMOUS favour for which you must be eternally grateful........and while I'm at it I'll just shove this knife is your back'.
I worked with someone just like this. HER work was always more important. She liked to take over jobs that were assigned to me whilst muttering 'I suppose this is another job I'll have to do'.
Other people get wise to this very quickly.
