Reply to: Being undermined by your boss.

[mudskipper]

Ever had one of those situations where you've carried out your job to the best of your abilities, obeyed the rules, implemented the changes according to the rules and then some twunt comes and escalates to your boss asking for the decision to be overruled & your boss completely undermines you & tells you to carry out the new instructions.

Seriously undermines your staff & causes terrible moral issues.

Disgraceful.

What's the pay like?

Guys, guys, look at MF's new "bitch" avatar. He's just role playing, getting in touch with his feminine side.

Before you know it, ... no let's not go there

He wasn't a contractor either or he would never have missed those 3 billable days just because he'd been crucified

Edit: Easter is a Sunday so it was only one billable day wasn't it? Maybe he was a contractor after all

Pretty clever being crucified on the long bank holiday weekend.

He wasn't a permie either.

Ok busy right now, but start lubing up and pop a couple of muscle relaxants. I will be back later.

He is not permie because he could never hang around same job for more than few months

So why did you do it then?

Seriously undermines your staff & causes terrible morale issues.

unless you are wondering whether to bury him under the patio.

Its knee jerk management, its available from almost anyone in a smart suit with a manager title.

Even if they were a stakeholder and voted on the Design gate/phase.

Just smile, send the stakeholders & sponsor a copy of the gate presentation and specifications annotated with the changes and get on with it. Then Invoice or take the pay packet.

So you made a decision without consulting your boss and he overruled you?

[MarillionFan]

Maybe your boss didn't realise that the work you were doing was not needed by all stakeholders in the way that you did it? Is that your boss undermining you or just failing to take into account all stakeholder's needs?
