Heh, interesting day still.  My boss just left for lunch, which means the rest of my day is a downhill coast to home.  I have 50 minutes left in my day, not much at all.  Hell, I'll probably even leave a few minutes early just for shits and giggles, since last week was such a long week.  I had to laugh though, because of the conversation I had with my boss just before she left for lunch.  Boy was she fired up about that dick from last week that had us working on the monster power point slide show.  He just waltzed in, assuming he could boss everybody around and make us do whatever he wanted.  Oh, also might I add, he was technologically retarded, so he'd hand us a print copy of a map or something and say 'Here, plug this into the presentation!'  He should have been getting electronic copies of it and letting us put it in that way.  Using the scanner to put it in leaves risk for it being blurry or other things, and this was not a presentation to flub up that way, but I guess he didn't care.  Anyway, I also found that while he was cramming us to get this damn thing done all last week, we realistically could have had until maybe tomorrow or Wednesday to do it, as the presentation isn't until the 30th, NOT the 23rd as we were originally told.  He made us cram all this work in because he's going out of town first though.

I have a feeling he's going to get sat down and get a talking to when this is all said and done, as he was very unprofessional.  Further, the company won't want him representing him that way.  Should be interesting to see what happens.  I know my boss was pissed about it though, she even told me that he is of the mindset that he's a guy, so we ladies should do whatever he asks.  THAT got me fired up, I don't care who you are, gender does not control how, when or why I do anything for another human being.  I told her that that was a crock of crap if he really thinks he can get by with that.  She agreed and said she'd most probably be talking to him in the very very near future about his behavior, especially considering he waltzed in and took over her office for three days.

That bastard, who does he think he is anyway?  All in all, heh, I had to laugh and smile at the end of the conversation, as my boss and I were nagging back and forth at each other for the same reason, it wasn't just me listening to her bitch.  I couldn't believe the guy.  Heh, and then it surprised me when I let slip 'That's a crock of crap!', because she said 'Yeah, you're right, it is!'  I figured she'd look at me funny like 'What the hell was that?'  Ah well, amusing morning to say the least.  Moving on now ... editing our company website ... must concentrate ... must keep all stupid men out of office ...
