I'm a supervisor!
Edited on Fri Apr-18-08 09:29 AM by Richardo
As of today, for the first time ever, I have an OFFICIAL direct report. I've had titles as high as Director at other companies and have never had a staff assigned to me, not even an admin.

I think I'm going to go ahead, and have him come in Saturday. Regular time. Yeahhhhhh, that'd be greaaaaat.



Let the empire building begin! Nyah-ah-ahhh :evilgrin:

2. Fair play
but employees are a pain in the arse! I heard 3 of them filling out their evaluations yesterday because it is that time of year. One woman put biding my time and waiting to retire on every question. I love the University merit employee system- Some rich fuckin name that is-
:grr:

Edited on Fri Apr-18-08 09:52 AM by Rambis
it would be fine but she has dragged 4-6 more people of the same age into her daily negativity round table. She is very negative and very vocal- she is rude to students and parents on the phone Oi!

35. As such, you get first dibs on the horse porn, right?
I, on the other hand, get to use the word 'erection' in a non-sexual harrassment context virtually at-will. :)

18. Well, since your new flunky is a man, I feel safe in skipping the Sexual Harrassment lecture.
Be sure he knows that the newbie buys lunch once/week. Mmmm-kay??? Congrats, Boss Man. :thumbsup:

24. I'll bet he's busy. Really, very busy.
Edited on Fri Apr-18-08 01:15 PM by Sugar Smack
What do you think he's doing? We all know he's supervising: I like to think he's leaning over someone's shoulder and scowling slightly. Maybe stroking his chin with one hand & the other shoved in his pocket. A brisk pat on the office worker's shoulder. "Carry on."

*swoon* :D

33. When are you going to start going to "board meetings"?
When are you going to "send the car around"? When people start knocking over their particleboard cubicles to let you pass, will you keep us posted?
