No snow yet. Can't wait for little man to go to bed so I can have a beer. My supervisor decided he had to formally counsel me today. Essentially, he gave a vague task that he told me to start and stop and wait for x,y, and z,and complete in a format we never used. We missed a fake deadline, no one asked for the product. After pointing out the various things that I have done that are positive, acknowledge that he gave no clear guidance, didn't take time to show me how to write in the new format, and state that he needed to respond to requests for draft
Now, I have been goofing off the last few weeks and not produced much. We don't have a product due so I have not been focused. Fine. There is other stuff I can do and I will. But to go to my company supervisor without talking to me first and threaten a formal warning that could get me fired when the problem was created by him is BS.
After I got to speak he decided not to make anything formal and announce to everyone I was his deputy. Anyone else think he knew he was screwed if he took this forward?
Sooooo pissed. Just say "less time online" or "I noticed that the last few weeks your production has fallen" and we are good. But go to our boss over a situation you created? Just no
