Grrrrrr! Numero tres crappy day in a row. ABBA flipped his lid, berrating people all day. It was more than unbearable. And to pour salt in the festering wound of morale - he was insistent on keeping us late "just because". Asshole. We would have been far more productive tomorrow (and focused), if we just left for the day. We were all burned out. Fried.
I'm not even sure what ABBA's "role" there is anymore. Seems that bureaucratically, he's not doing any administrative/CEO/directive tasks - self-directed shift of "title", conveniently to "President of Sales" or something. Mixed messages here. If he's only doing sales - why is he still threatening one of my subordinates to fire him if he would "..stop and close Flash [the application],
NOW!..I'm telling you, if I see you have that application open again today, even buy accident...you can just leave and wait for your last paycheck...you guys are killing me....i like you alot but you'd better not have that Flash open again....you cannot have that Flash open because you do not understand me"... (yet 3 hour earlier, he was asking this programmer "why hasn't the flash been done...the [client] really likes the Flash - I know you will do a great job...")...All fricken day long.
I didn't leave the office until after 7pm - and I was ready to get the stress out of my system by biking. It was pouring rain like a mo fo. No fricken break today. Asshole boss - patronizingly being an asshole all day long, then worked an hour and a half (unpaid) overtime, then dark, cold heavy rain bike ride. Came back to car, dried off - drove home in horrible conditions.
I'm just glad to be home. And glad to be going on a little vacation this weekend thru Tues/Wed.
