It was too good to be true, landed new gig not long after finishing another.
Gig turns out not to be sold as seen, pretty much from day 3, so one thing was said in the interview, and it turns out not to be the case.
Then there's the line manger I deal with.... if anyone has ever seen the devil wears prada, then its the male version of that. Not sure how much longer I can put up with silly mind games. I get asked to schedule project meetings, only to turn up and get asked what the meeting was for. I get asked for a summary document only for then to be told they wanted the whole thing. Any time I have a meeting with this person I summarise in an e-mail what's been said as I make sure I'm covering my ar$e but this person then denies what they said.
If this person was a women then the mood swings would be logical ( sorry girls), but getting your head bitten off for no reason, turning up at meetings scheduled only to be asked where is x documents I asked you to bring, when they didn't or hadn't sent them in the first place. Then I get hassle about not being able to make meetings they schedule well after office hours.
I'm think i'm beginning to figure out why my predecessor left.
I'm also not sure I can put up with this much longer......................
The only incentive to stay is the market is carp here.
