Work

Work is annoying me a bit. I’m off this week, so Friday was my last day. My manager was off on Friday. I should have been tidying something up and getting it finished before being on holiday, but what actually happened was one of the sales staff decided to take advantage of my manager not being in to start harassing me directly. She phoned my personal mobile, which I ignored because I didn’t recognise the number. Then she phoned the landline and my sister picked it up! The reason for the call was to ask me to jump into a video meeting with her. FFS, just send an email. 🤦

So we had a video call for her to demonstrate something which my manager has already told her several times is correct behaviour and she doesn’t understand her test data. “But the test data is fine” she insisted. Anyway, apparently this was super urgent because it affects her ability to show it to clients, so I spent several hours going through it to find exactly where her test data wasn’t what she thought it was. Several emails later she still doesn’t really understand and helpfully suggests “I’m happy to do another call if it helps clarify”. No!

Needless to say I didn’t get any actual work done, and I was trying to fix a bug that will actually affect her ability to do show it to clients, so that will have to wait a week now. 🤷 Aaarrrgggghhhh. She is a nice person but oh my god.
