The director of the company I have worked for the past 12 years, was such a jerk to me today. I've worked on a project the past 6 weeks, plus weekends. Because other people have not turned in their data on time, the project is now behind sked. But instead of holding them responsible, he railed on me for "letting" it fall behind. I am not in management. I can irritate and remind people, but I have no authority to force anyone to do anything. I set up the sked way in advance, held meetings, sent out emails, etc. I did everything except do their work for them, and in a couple cases I helped people put their charts together, so I did do their work for them. I'm ready to say what's on my mind next time we're in a meeting. But I'll just get scorned as being a whiner instead of someone who "sees a challenge in everything and seeks resolution". After awhile, that's BS. I'm sick of other people failing to manage their own workload and trying to shift blame. That's all there is to it...just wish they would do their work.
Thanks for the vent, I feel better already!
