Disaster Planning

Without getting into all the boring details, someone’s been acting like a spoiled princess at work. It’s run the gamut from making assumptions, to failing to specify exact details, to miscalculating dates, and ending with a series of spiteful e-mails. The net result has been an exceptionally crappy start of the week for me.

I’ve already had to bring the smack down twice. And that’s never pretty. Especially when all I need to do is outline the facts, and someone ends up looking like a total idiot. I’d be inclined to be gentler if someone hadn’t cc-ed half the company on the crazy. Here’s to hoping tomorrow’s quieter, because I’d actually like to get some work done this week.
