I Call BullS&1T
Job crankies.
We have a new project type here at work that is a killer. On top of it being a lot of work it's new so info on things keeps changing.
I follwed the instructions I was given to the letter and it of course pissed off my field rep (which I knew it would and which my team leads also were aware it would) and of course the head of coordinating these project just stopped by my office to basically say I shouldn't have done what I did even though yesterday he was the one who told our group to take this action. Why did he stop by becasue my pissed off field editor escalted the issue over his head and the information on the spreadsheet I have been told to use is incomplete.
a) Don't tell me if the ISBN isn't located on this speadsheet we can't use the book, and then come and tell me that we can use those books even if they aren't on the spreadsheet!
b) Don't tell us to only use a spreadsheet to gather data if there is a remote chance that spreadsheet is not complete
c) Don't come back to me when an action you told me to take has consequences that you should have been well aware would happen.
d) Stick to your guns and push the issues up the chain not down!
