If this was earlier in the day, I'd wait awhile before responding but since it's 11pm and I'm suppose to be at work at 7am, guess I'd better go to sleep. I think I'm going to be having an awful day at work tomorrow.
What you said is exactly how I took it and I believe, how she meant it.
This happens quite often. Blames me for having something on my desk and then finds it on hers and then says....I found it (as if it was outside or something
What happened was a year ago while doing my work, I found some descrepencies with a lot of work being submitted from a certain area of the country. I started doing some investigating and things were really not right to where some licenses may be taken away in another state. (with the knowledge of xmanager and lead) When my big boss found out I was doing this, she told my xmanager to give it all to the lead as my position didn't call for this. I admit, I was a little put off, sucked it up but what can one do so I wrote up in detail to the lead and cc'd xmanager what I found, what I did and my last line was..
"This is where I was informed that you and xx(ex manager) would handle. I did not get ahold of xxxx at xxx hospital to send a letter."
This was May 13, 2009
That was what my lead was refering to when she said, that xmanager asked you to do awhile back. (April 20, 2010)
Seems to me that the big boss had me turn this all over to her last year and SHE didn't follow through. Another suck it up. Her digs are starting to get at me. She likes people who follow her like puppy dogs, don't question, take the "cause I said so" answers. If I'm calling someone back or sending them a letter denying their license, I like to know the law that I'm refering to and not a "cause I said so". Do you know how much fun it is to work for the state, deny someone licensure, they ask why and you say, "it's Board policy" but you don't know exactly what law it is because you are going after the "cause I said so" mantra of your lead? ***the lead isn't a supervisor or manager position, she makes about $100 more a month than I do. I don't know if anyone read my response in the administrative aid/secretary day today (or whatever it's called) but this is the same person who yelled at me today for adding a comma to make a letter correct. I had the audacity (?sp) to ask a coworker who has a BA in english if a second comma should go in there as I was thinking it would. She refused to sign it because she hadn't put the second comma in there and only wanted the one. (i created the letter, gave it to her to proof since I put her signature on it and she added a ,however, (normally I don't do letters for someone but this was a training thing for me and it was the above reference letter and the manager thought it best that it have the lead's signature on it).
My manager would have said, good job Sasy for finding that mistake as she would rather her letters go out correctly. The lead would rather something go out wrong that say "good job" to someone. No offense to anyone but I'd rather work with men.
