[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think you have a gripe about a meeting being changed to 4PM. Boo hoo. That's part of the workday. The micromanaging is obviously a problem. I can see a person who is new try to really jump in to try to get a sense of everything and everyone in the organization and then pull back later when they start to trust people, but trying to edit documents for hundreds of people is nuts. I can't imagine the documents would need substantive edits by the time they get to the director. [/quote] No, it is not part of the work day. Our org has flexible hours. People come in as early as 6 AM to start work so they they can finish early and take care of their families. It causes huge strain on their familial obligations if a meeting gets changed in less than 24 hours for late in the day past 4 PM so that the terrible director can attend a meeting 5 levels below her 15 minutes late. [/quote] That goodness you dont deal with any outside vendors or clients since you all can make up your own work hours. How blessed. Hope your group is pulling in industry margins or better. [/quote] Thank God we don't work in your sh!tty industry. Lol, it happened again this week. Meeting got changed at the last minute for 4-5PM. Someone got into a car accident with their kids because they had to go pick them up and were trying to manage a crazy stupid meeting at the last minute. You also miss the major point. The reason meetings are being pushed so late is so that someone way high up can attend meetings and discussions for front line work 5 levels below her. It's insane micromanagement. She could I dunno, not attend the meetings because she trusts the employees hired and their managers above them rather than try to do all of the front line work herself? Crazy thought, I know! [/quote] Trust people who leave the office before 3pm and drive like maniacs with kids in their car? Ok…. Childcare. Get some. [/quote]
