Welcome back Lisa :roll:


Yep, that sucks.

I went on a weeks leave in May and came back to the spare office full of my project files and "issues" that arose while I was away......"issues" mind you that didn't exist when I went on leave but I was somehow meant to pre-empt and alert the rest of my office to.

Sadly, my crystal ball was on the blink that week. I also have the relationship and fortitude to challenge/stand up to my boss as and when required. This situation was one of them.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

Yep. Its easy to pass the buck to the person that isnt there. I used to just cop it to keep everyone happy. But now Ill tell anyone, even the GM, exactly what I think. It works a lot better than letting everyone think you're incompetent.

Went to the UK for a month in July. Same thing happened to me, some of it was very detailed and only I knew what to do so I was happy to deal with it.

The one that pissed me off was a returned phone call that only only required a simple yes or no answer. Any brain dead clown could have dealt with that one and not make the client wait 3 weeks to get an answer.

Must be ever so difficult being a boss. Sitting on the yacht selecting silk ties and pondering just how ******* big the next yacht will be. :lol:

I'm sure you can handle it - wouldn't be too bad

Unless you're in the porn industry.

Sydney swans and the cost of living allowance. I understand it for rookies but if you're on $300k + surely you can cope with sydneys living costs

Only being three South Australians in the Redbacks side, what a disgrace.
