Kudos for civic duty performed!
I've been volunteered for a committee. "Increasing Social Engagement in the Office." That office don't need no more social engagement. They need to shut up occasionally, and come back from lunch on time and maybe sober. Needless to say, I will not be offering that opinion to the group. Why am I on this committee?
Zen, don't you work from home? How the heck are you supposed to work on social engagement, play games during the workday with coworkers?
I am glad Washington is all vote by mail but it misses some excitement at some elections.
Vote by mail is awesome.
40 minutes ago, my coworker initiated a "quick call." We are still on the phone.
I do work from home! I never go in to the office anymore; I can't play their reindeer games even if I wanted to. Why am I on this committee?
That's kind of hilarious, Zen. It only makes any sense if they are looking for different perspectives, I guess.
Another set of co-workers are discussing the disposal of dead bodies. Some of us may not have enough to keep us busy.
Super aggravating work day with passive men not doing what asked. Men questioning or challenging every direction I give. Half ass doing jobs. Nay saying everything. This is why I don't want to head up any projects when none of them report to me. Fuckwits the lot of them.
Oh, that sucks msbelle. Responsibility without power, ick.
Holy cow, this Ask a Manager update.
