  • Work Rant:


    I'm pissed.  This morning, I spend a freakin hour fixing a form on our network for general use throughout the company and forward it on the the person that has been named keeper of the form.  I explain to her the changes I've made at tell her that it's all hers... her reply:


    "Thanks Leah, but I'd already made the changes."


    Now, I go in and take a look to see wtf she's talking about because I made the changes this morning and she sends me that note after 1.  She changed a couple of words on the second sheet of the form... the instruction sheet (and of course now it doesn't make sense, but I digress).  So she goes to Boss Man's boss and claims she's figured it all out and has corrected the mistakes.  BFS!!!  She couldn't create the form if someone held a gun to her head and made her!  You know what she did then???  She deleted my copy of the form (because I had it as read-only since it was a template) and re-named her form so she showed as the author... of course the time stamp on it is 1:08.  Now the form I worked on is lost in oblivion and there's no record what so ever to show that I actually did it.  I knew I should have protected it with a password.


    *Mommy Words*




    Update:


    Yes, just as Sarah suggested I have gone to BossMan.  The jist of our conversation:


    Me: Hi BossMan, I fixed that form this morning so you can go ahead and send an all staff message if you'd like.
    BossMan: Great!  You fixed it this morning?
    Me: Yeah, but *Insert wench's name here* made some changes to it this afternoon.  It will still function, just not as smoothly.  Since Evil Manager has decided that she should be it's keeper I'm not going to go in and fix it again.
    BossMan: Okay, that's fine.
    Me: I would like to request, however, that I remain keeper of our department's forms so I can assure that they are maintained properly.
    BossMan: No problem... and thanks.

  • Yikes.  I assume that you're going to explain this all to someone, like maybe BossMan? 

    It's lost forever?

  • = I  So you're keeper of all the other forms.  Can you keep backups of these things to prevent further meddling from this other person?

  • So it sounds like you stood up for yourself, without being bitchy.  Good for you!  (Unless I just read that update wrong.)

  • I wonder what Chun would say?

  • Chun would say "Listen bitch, you pull that shit again, and I'll make you disappear because as far as you're concerned, I'm David Fucking Copperfield."

  • Hey, this happened on a Tuesday!  hahah 

    And omg I wish I could see Itty Bitty.  She sounds so adorable!! I think I do want a kid now...  =X
