This email:
This email bothers me. (It isn't just because he used 'to' when he should have used 'too'.)
The scripture keeps popping into my head about 'keep no record of wrongs' but MAN this chaps my hide. Mike had this man send an email out to three of us telling us that we are doing a crappy job (well within their rights to do if we are all three doing a bad job) and telling us we need to get a better understanding of what we are working on (also within their rights if all three of us do not have an understanding of what we are working on) the problem is that one of us has worked here almost 7 years.
My reply back (and I copied Mike and my boss Roger) was that it might be a good idea to talk to the person who is sending back incomplete drawings instead of sending a general email out to everyone.
Wait, here's a copy of my email:
If I don't have an understanding of what I'm working on then I need to find another job in a completely different field. If I am sending back drawings that aren't being completed correctly then I need to be fired!
My boss said that I need to quit being so sensitive, but I disagree. I think that this Project Manager needs classes on how to manage people. Because what he has mastered is how to manage people and suck all of the desire out of them. He takes the team out of teamwork.
My problem is how do I handle this constant barrage of 'Kelly you suck'. Is this a lesson in which I learn patience and is this humbling me? Or is this a lesson where I learn that I need to get out and do something completely different? Or is this my mission field and I'm here to help someone be a better person?
