I am just growing so tired of my boss. Everyone thinks he is the best human on the planet so you can't say anything.
1. He has become like a baby. He can't remember anything and he is constantly e-mailing with questions that he should know. I suspect he does know these things because, as an extrovert, I suspect the is just in dire need of human conversation.
2. He is increasingly lazy and this means work for me. Every stupid thing that he should just answer the question he wants to have a zoom meeting about. But these meetings are TON of work for me to set up. Last week someone waived his presence at the meeting -- something that has never been an issue before but now, he had a problem with it and we had like an hour meeting about that. The presence was waved so that things could get set up quicker and he says he doesn't care how long it takes, but IMHO he does.
3. It is hard to schedule things because we have limited access to the room with the video. He can't seem to understand that. He thinks we should be able to anything he wants when he wants... when I tell him something isn't happening because I got bumped or something he grouses at me but does nothing. This is doubly frustrating for me because when I get bumped I need to tell everyone of a change to the schedule.
4. My other bosses are constantly setting up guidance and meetings for me and I can't keep up with any of it. Because I am so busy doing work.
I made a sarcastic remark the other day that I don't think he got suggesting I should get a kind word for performing so well under strained circumstances... didn't get a thank you.
I feel like some of my co workers are angry either at me or him, I guess him. He is supposed to be getting things done and he isn't. What this effectively means is similar to me... he keeps telling them to do work, but then when they bring him that work, he doesn't want to sit down and do the work, he just finds a reason for them to re do it.
I am seriously wondering if I can take this job any longer. The work just never ends.. EVER. Basically because they bosses don't have to do any of it and thus there is no impediment to them saying -- do this... - do that... forever. For us to be having a pandemic and also working at home and still be working like dog -- at home -- and sometimes don't even getting a lunch break, is almost making the decision for me. I am just too old for this job and my life it total misery. It is the job itself. Much of my work has been suspended. When it starts back up the need will be horrific.
