  • I've had a rubbish day :(:(:( I had my fortnightly 1:1 this morning and my line manager told me that his boss(US-based) doesn't rate me because I'm not an extrovert :mad: Even though I can do his stupid job blindfolded with my hands tied behind my back and we've only met face-to-face once in the last 18 months :mad::mad::mad: I wasn't very productive for the rest of the day... funny that...

    What an @rse springs to mind - unprofessional behaviour from both managers, I won't call them leaders.

    Chin up and keep focussing on the fact tat you can do the job well.

    Absolutely - worst manager I've ever had... what was more inappropriate was that he told me that VP didn't rate one of my colleagues either (and named him :eek:)

    What a knob. Feel free to set LRC on him :cool:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
