[quote=Anonymous]I am sitting in my office on a call getting screamed at (well, our whole team is) when I got the e-mail message on my cell phone. I am getting a promotion in title, a 50 percent raise, my wife can go part-time finally, I am getting 8 weeks of vacation a year, they are putting 18K in retirement for me (and I can double it for the tax benefit), and I don't have to hear this woman yell at me and call us incompetent (we're not incompetent, we're just not mind readers).

I've been here less than a year, but I haven't worked with someone who is so difficult to communicate with. Don't e-mail her small messages, it clogs up her in-box, but do e-mail her once you finished ever task she's ask, but do it in bulk batches, but do it often enough so she feels like she's in the loop. How often? Don't ask her, use your judgment. Don't stop her and ask for minute, don't knock on her door, don't ask for time on her calendar (which is purposefully blocked), don't talk too slowly, don't talk too quickly, don't interrupt, don't let silence hang, it's a waste of her time SPIT IT OUT.

I cannot wait to hand in my notice. It's a freaking Christmas miracle, people.[/quote]
