        Sounds like she had a few anger management issues.... (Or a really bad case of PMT)

          If it was PMT it lasted for over six months.

          No, she was just mental. Was rumoured to be doing the 2ic, it helped her keep her job (as a really rubbish project manager)

            Ah yes, that one.

            I guess that's why the Bastard Alan left her...

            Some women can have pretty severe hormonal imbalances, one of my mates sisters used to scream at anybody who went near her 3 weeks a month (week before she was tulipty, week during she was ready to kill, week after she would just bite your head off).

            But in this case more likely she was just a deranged nutter whose life was falling around her ears because she couldn't keep her knickers up and she was blaming it on everybody else while desperatly trying to sleep with the boss to keep her job safe.

            Hope that covers it

                Obviously being a contractor I don't have a manager, I only have clients. Have we got a closet permie here?

                  Yes, and she had worked there for 18 years, bullying her way to the top. (or should that be sucking ?)

                      Have to let me know the name of the company so that I can apply for a highly placed job there in 10 years time when I have my mid-life crisis!!


                      Then again, that all depends on how old she is... I don't want to be attacked by some rampant granny.... Ewwwwwww
