I've worked with these people and I've had this manager. The frustration still sits like a knot in my chest.
This is well written Scoot. I enjoyed it and suffered it all at the same time.
I am glad/I am sorry you enjoyed/suffered through this story LOL! I hate that it is relatable but man corporate life stinks!
Thanks Scoot. In my experience of working thus far, communication is always the problem. Either a lack of it, or just poor communication with no effort to understand each other.
I hate this for you omg this gives me so many icky feelings
This was a dark time in my corporate career but things are better now!
Girl, same. It made me so anxious to read, and Scoot, I'm so sorry you had to experience this ordeal.
Thanks Chantal--lessons learned and trials endured! But also--never again 😂
Ah, corporate! What a place to be.
When I saw this, I thought it was going in a direction like “The Accountant” with Ben Affleck. This is massively more stressful!
LOL a corporate stooge can dream! (Not of murder. But like, being an action hero. I haven't seen the movie.)
Eeezh. That sounds awful. Makes me glad my day job is a nice happy calm one like the legal field. *eye twitches*.
No challenges whatsoever among lawyers! Right? RIGHT???
A long time ago, in a world far, far away this was my job. 🤪
Oh this is so familiar! The bigger the company, the worse it is!
AMEN to that!! Everyones king of their own little departmental kingdom
As the words diffused through my eyes and to my brain-I envisioned former coworkers and office settings...it was all too real!! Fun read.
Infuriating. Hilarious. I'm lucky that I don't have to deal with too many of these situations in my line of work!
