It's only 9:30 in the morning and I'm already aggravated. Right now, as it stands, my two biggest priorities are to fix some issues with our e-commerce system and to develop a contest form complete with reporting capabilities by Friday. My good ol' boss decides it's more important to figure out why the word "Travel" is appearing in one of the web pages instead of the word "Hot". Stop the presses! It reads "TRAVEL", not "HOT"!!! CALL IN THE NATIONAL GUARD! Then, he sends me emails asking questions which require one word answers. He sits right next to me... He also instant messages me to ask questions too. Uh, dude... You *can* ask me out loud. Wouldn't hurt to get up and walk over either. Hey, as a matter of fact, if you asked me to get up and walk six feet to your desk, I would! And yesterday, when I found a new problem with our commerce system I got kind of down about it because it gets frustrating. The day before (Monday) I was in a good mood having improved site performance. He comes to me and says "Funny... The irony of your attitude today and yesterday. Maybe you shouldn't be so thrilled about the things you fix." The best was when my wife and I were at a dinner party with some coworkers and we were talking about our daughter with someone else. He butts in and comments "There are more important things in life than your children." WTF?! I don't know... Maybe he's pissed at me because of reorganization in the company and the sole web developer/DBA/Network Admin (uhh... me) no longer reports to him. Arggg... I just got back from a week off and now I need another vacation. Thanks for letting me vent. I can't wait to get to Karate class tonight. -V ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
